Dolphin-Safe Beers

I’ve already waxed semi-poetically about the fish known as mahi mahi. They’re also called some other things, including “dorado” and – quite confusingly – dolphin. George Costanza might not have been able to tell a mammal from a fish, but most of the rest of us can, so the name shouldn’t give you too much pause. That may change if you’re intoxicated, and the capture of a leaping, colorful and tasty fish certainly merits a beer or three. Fortunately, there are quite a few named after the fighter:

Cutback Brewing

Mahi Mahi

Tripping Animals

Ma, He Did It

Screamin’ Reels IPA

Props Craft Brewery

El Dorado Lager

Ballast Point

Dorado

Ballast Point

Watermelon Dorado

Channel Marker Brewing

Mahi Mahi IPA

If it comes in a can or from the tap, access is no problem, otherwise you may need some way to open your bottle (other than your teeth, tough guy):

HookNHide

Bull Dolphin Belt Buckle

Pura Pesca

Mahi Keychain Bottle Opener

White Summer Creations

Wall-Mounted Bottle Opener

Mokie Burns

Magnetic Wood Burned Bottle Opener

There are even shirts and hats dedicated to Mahi Lager from Saltwater Soul.

Drink a few good ones for us — and I promise the sea will not be angry that day my friends.
