MILTON, Del., July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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.

GRATEFUL DEAD:
The Grateful Dead is a social and musical phenomenon that grew into a genuine American treasure. In 1965, an entire generation was linked together by common ideals, gathering by the hundreds and thousands. This movement created a seamless connection between the band and its fans. As the band toured, Dead Heads would follow. Not because it was a part of popular culture but because it is a true counterculture that exists to this very day-one that earnestly believes in the value of its beliefs. By 1995, the Grateful Dead had attracted the most concertgoers in the history of the music business, and today remains one of the all-time leaders in concert ticket sales. Eventually, the caravan evolved into a community with various artists, craftsmen and entrepreneurs supplying a growing demand for merchandise that connected them to the music. Today, the connection is as strong as ever, and their final tally of 2,318 total concerts remains a world record. The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and received a Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007. In 2024, the Grateful Dead celebrated their 64th Top 40 album on the Billboard chart, a feat no other artist has achieved, and commemorated in the 47th class of the Kennedy Center Honorees. The Grateful Dead will be the 2025 MusiCares Persons of the Year to be honored at the 67th Annual GRAMMY® Awards.
