Bought at a local store in a bottle. The hops are great, malty as well. I didnt like at first, but as it sat and warmed up I couldnt put it down. Mixed emotion, I will have to rerate when I try more IPA’s

One of the best IIPAs on the market, for sure. I tried one out of a Randall recently at the brewpub in Rehoboth. Attempted several times to switch beers, but kept coming back. The stuff is like crack (I assume). If I could choose my own death, it would be by drowning in a vat of DFH 90-Minute.

What’s not to like about this beer? Great hop aromas and flavors. Nice malt balance. Best of all it’s year round.

Bottle. An amber coloured pour with a light head. Hoppy aroma backed up with plenty of malt. Hint of caramel and some fruit, sweet too. Had this beer many times Stateside. This really is my kind of beer, bloody superb!

For a person who has never tried an imperial/double ipa... common sense would suggest that 90 min would be hoppier than the 60 min... this is definitely not the case!!! the 90 min is malty. I had this beer after 3 other traditional ipa’s during an ipa sampling with my brother in-law. If you want hopps this is not the beer for you. However, it is a very good malty beer that warms you up. a definite must try on a cold winter day.

Everyone else has already said what needs to be said about this near perfect beer. I cracked one open to welcome the first great day of Spring in Dayton, OH. What a wonderful world :-)

12 oz Had this many times living in fl. 4 packs and on tap at mellow mushroom. Pours dark amber with medium head. aroma is full of floral and citrus hops. this is a full bodied work of art. suprising finishes with perfect mix of sweet malt and bitterness. I think it lives up to its hype. runs a close race with pliny the elder east vs west.......
