Dogfish Head marks Women’s History Month with beer release March 11

Dogfish Head will launch its first Benevolence Beer of 2024 Monday, March 11, at its Brewings & Eats brewpub in Rehoboth Beach, in collaboration with the Delaware Restaurant Association. She Means Business (5.5% ABV) is a Belgian-style white ale brewed with a unique blend of coriander, sumac, peppercorns, white tea and tamarind, creating a beer with a delicate balance of complex citrus, herb and spice notes. In honor of Women’s History Month and the incredible women who fuel the hospitality industry, the grains and spices used to create She Means Business were sourced from women-owned businesses.

She Means Business will be available on draft for on-site consumption at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats and to go in 4pk/16oz cans at Dogfish Head’s Off-Centered EmPOURium while supplies last.

In addition to the March 11 beer launch, the Delaware Restaurant Association will host a special event from 6 to 8 p.m., at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats, celebrating women who are making waves in the hospitality industry and unveiling its new Women of Hospitality Leadership Accelerator. A portion of the sales proceeds from She Means Business will be donated to DRA to support this development initiative for women in Delaware's hospitality industry. Tickets are available at tinyurl.com/bdzhhasa.

"I am thrilled to have the support of an iconic brand like Dogfish Head to design a special can and beer release in honor of women who work in the restaurant and hospitality industry,” said Carrie Leishman, Delaware Restaurant Association and Foundation president and CEO. “Women make up more than 60% of this exciting industry but often have little access to meaningful mentorship, coaching and leadership development programs.  The Delaware Restaurant Association will use funds donated from the beer release to pilot a powerful women's leadership accelerator program."
