(Milton, DE) – Dogfish Head’s next Ancient Ales series offering received label approval this week.

The company first unveiled Kvasir in a March blog post, explaining that they were working to develop a Nordic grog using evidence taken from a 3,500 year-old drinking vessel.

Dogfish Head reported at the time that Kvasir would debut in July but it is looking more like this is going to be a fall release. Kvasir is planned to hit all of the brewery’s 27 states pending state label approvals.

She was a leather-clas priestess, a member of the upper class, and in the most northerly limits of Scandanavia, her tomb guarded a recipe for millennia. In her day, before grape wine arrived from the North East, alcoholic beverages were cocktails of sugar-rich ingredients like grain, fruit and honey. With help from biomolecular archaeologist Dr. Patrick McGovern and Swedish brewery Nynashamns Angbryggeri, we’ve unearthed the secrets of her tart, complex grog, and we’re sharing our modern interpretation with you.
