Today is Sam Calagione’s 55th birthday. Sam is the owner and marketing genius behind Delaware’s successful Dogfish Head Brewing. Sam’s also a great guy, and a (former?) rap singer of sorts, with his duo (along with his head brewer Bryan Selders) the Pain Relievaz. Join me in wishing Sam a very happy birthday.





Very cool … all we need is some thrasher punk rock throbbing behind him.
Bad Boy Records look out. He’s got mad flow, a regular P.Diddy he is. Come on, I thought this East v West coast thing died out in 1997.
He sounds like Puh-puh-puh-pah-Porky Pig when he says poseurs. Psychosomatic with his hop choices. Embarassing.
Sorry, I know this is a happy birthday article, but there’s no way he’s emerging unscathed after that display.
He brews beer AND raps. This guy lives the life.
I think.
I saw this show – it was great live.
Look at that cool Ricky bass in the background . . . 🙂
A rapper?… I guess there is plenty of time to practice during mashing and boiling…
