Canned cocktails are all the rage right now, but Dogfish Head has been perfecting their own recipes for the last twenty years. In part 2 of our interview with Sam Calagione we’re sampling through some of their vodka-based cocktails.

When we first started tasting cocktails at Barrel to Bottle, we asked the question “if you were served this at a bar, would you order another one?” But now that the category has exploded, we have different parameters for how to judge them.

Some beers in the Dogfish line didn’t quite take off with customers, because they were a little bit too out there. And speaking of that vast portfolio, how do they balance producing old favorites with continuing to innovate?

Drink along at home with the following cocktails:

• Dogfish Head Blueberry Shrub Vodka Soda
• Dogfish Head Vodka Crush
• Dogfish Head Gin Crush
• Dogfish Head Cocktails Bar Cart
