Dogfish Head World Wide Stout 2001/2003-Present
his listing encompasses: A) the November, 2001 release (18% abv), B) the November, 2003 U.S. (but not U.K.) release (18.8% abv), C) the November, 2004 release (18% abv), and D) the November 2005 release (17.8% abv) and E) all subsequent releases due both to their similarity in alcohol content and a lack of change in recipe. None of the releases' labels provides its abv, however: November, 2001 release (18%) displays the unaltered words "Vim and Vigor" on the label, gold cap November, 2003 U.S. release (18.8%). No "Vim and Vigor" present, gold cap ("Vim and Vigor" is crossed out only on the November, 2002 release (23%), which is not rated under this listing) 2004 - Bright yellow cap, no date stamp 2005 - Bright yellow cap, date stamp on bottle neck 2006 - Dark green cap WorldWide Stout is one of the world's strongest dark beers. It is brewed using six different yeast strains over seven months and then aged for half a year. Dark, rich, roasty, and complex, World Wide Stout has more in common with a fine port than a can of cheap, mass-marketed beer (released in early winter with very limited availability).

I am biased in favor of all things Dogfish Head but I can honestly say that this is one of the top 5 beers I have ever had. The World Wide Stout has redefined the modern stout, very much in the same way the 90 minute changed the way people looked at the I.P.A. It had been over two years since I had one but when I saw them on the featured shelf it was like finding a lost part of my liver. Careful, they carry a hefty price tag.
