Since 2003, Zymurgy magazine readers have been asked to weigh in on their favorite beers in America. This poll always has exciting results because the vast majority of our readers make their own beer at home. As Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head said, "The overlap between the homebrewing community and the craft beer community is very strong. At Dogfish Head, we are basically just homebrewing in 600-barrel tanks."
In 2011, Dogfish Head had 28 different beers in the list, one of which was their Indian Brown Ale that tied with a couple of other beers for 34th in the lineup. Enjoy brewing up your own version of this hoppy brown ale at home!
