In honor of Grateful Dead’s 60th anniversary, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery debuts a limited-edition, collectable 19.2oz can of its Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale, a year-round refresher crafted in collaboration with Grateful Dead.

This special-edition Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale vessel contains the brewery's same best-selling beer, but with an all-new, celebratory look centered on Grateful Dead's iconic 60th anniversary logo.

Dead Heads can find a 60th anniversary can of Dogfish Head's Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale at the brewery's Delaware locations, as well as at selects accounts in and around San Francisco during Dead & Company's three headline shows in Golden Gate Park in early August, while supplies last.

"With 2025 being Grateful Dead's 60th anniversary and Dogfish Head's 30th anniversary, we knew it was kismet – this was the perfect time to release our next collaboration, Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale," said Sam Calagione, Dogfish Head Brewer & Founder. "Launching a limited-edition 60th anniversary can of Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale is a way for us to officially say 'happy birthday' to the Grateful Dead while raising a can to Dogfish Head's biggest beer launch in our 30-year history! Get these special cans while you can, before they fade away."

To pair with the new 60th anniversary edition of Dogfish Head's Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale cans, later this month, the brewery will also launch a limited-edition, Dogfish Head x Grateful Dead 60th anniversary branded T-shirt and coaster, both adorned with Grateful Dead's 60th anniversary logo. Get yours at one of Dogfish Head's Delaware-based retail locations or online at dogfish.com/shop/grateful-dead.

Clocking in at 5.3% ABV, Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale is a refreshing, light-bodied beer brewed with Kernza® perennial grains from the Land Institute, granola and heaps of good karma. The addition of El Dorado and Azacca hops brings waves of tropical pineapple, mango and passion fruit notes for a vibrant tapestry of alluring aromas and flavors that will leave you with nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile.
