Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA

Brewed by Dogfish Head Brewery
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Milton, Delaware USA

Pours a nice golden color, with a small white head. Lacing on glass. Earthy smell with, flowers, citrus fruits, hops, and some pine. Taste is same, pretty simple IPA not as bitter as some. Easy to drink, nice aftertaste well done

341ml bottle from LCBO, poured clear yellow-orange with small but nice looking head. Good amount of carbonation can be seen rising to the surface. Aroma is nice strong hoppyness. No other caracter in the aroma. Hops takes all the place. Aroma has not much complexity but its nicely hoppy and fresh. Taste is quite bitter but not too much. Small feeling of alcohol on the finish. Quite pleasant. Awesomely balanced. I’m not a big IPA fan but this one is probably the best I’ve had ! Thumbs up ! Rating #52

Golden amber in color with a small white head. Citrusy aroma, citrusy sweet flavor with moderate bitterness in the end. Stacks up well against their 90 minute IPA, just doesn’t pack quite as much punch.

Clear amber with a decent white head. Piney, citrusy aroma is very pleasing and not overpowering. Flavor is hoppy without tasting like your tongue is going to fall off. Very pleasant and drinkable. Aftertaste is very clean and crisp. Not an IPA guy but this is good.

Now this IPA was a little more manageable. I thought the aroma of warm coffee grind was a welcome change from the typical hop/pine scent. The taste also didn’t kick my ass, which I was appreciative of.

12oz. bottle from Publix. Pours a clear, orange-amber. Slight bubbling carbonation throughout. Small white head. Aroma is mostly just sweet hops. Maybe some citrus. Flavor is some nice slightly bittersweet/ piney hops. Medium-light mouthfeel. Bit of a bitter aftertaste. Very good, drinkable IPA. A great intro IPA. A great session beer.

The hops are amazing. Of course Dogfish puts out some of the best IPAs, but this still deserves a note. A strong woody profile that just dominates.

Bottled on 12-11-08. Pour into Stella glass. Slight head diminishing to very thin head. Clear medium amber color. Okay, this aroma is not like I’ve encountered in my recent foray into APAs and IPAs. I do not like this smell! Yeasty to me. More "woody" aroma and bitter taste than the Libery Ale, Odell, Goose Island and Bridgeport IPAs. It gets better with each taste, but overall give me the other ones anyday. I read where someone said only get it on tap, that if bottled it gets bad - well this one is 2 1/2 months from bottled date, maybe that has something to do with my experience. Purchased room temperature from a store one week ago and it has bee in 38-40 degree fridge temperature since. I’d like to give a better rating, as I do enjoy beer, but this one is at the bottom of the category for me at this time. Maybe next time...Okay next time was today. Even worse than before - never again. if I got a bad batch, or is out of date, I do not consider that my responsibility. Why spend my hard-earned $$$ on this crap?
