First beer from dogfish head. dam dog this fish got some head yallz. Smells really great i was expecting more hops from this. Not that it wasn’t good but a lot of malt covers the hops im used to from a dipa. Still very smooth and good definite good stuff

Bottle. Good amber colour with a healthy off-white head. The aroma is really fruity that is slightly citrusy. There is a hint of bitterness but also a hint of sweetness at the same time. The taste has a strong fruity bitterness that is followed by a slight berry sweetness and finishes off nicely with a bittneress not as strong as the initial one.

This beer is a copper color that has floral scent with a slight alcohol undertone. It’s flavor isn’t what I was looking for and I bit over-hyped in my opinion... But none the less it is a good brew with sweet floral notes. It’s a bit lacking in complexity and is much sweeter than I would expect. Overall it is better than the average beer but maybe not one I’ll be searching for.

Pours orange with red tint and a thin head. Very hoppy smell with malt undertones. First taste is all hop and bitterness. As you drink your palat begins to notice more spices as the complexity of the beer comes through. I bwould recommend this beer to some one who wants to know what an ipa should taste like

Bottle. Pours dark amber with a laced white head. Big aroma of pine, caramel, fruit and a little boozy. The flavour I found to be a letdown with the alcohol quite evident in taste. A mate mentioned that it was quite medicinal and I’d concur. There’s more of that boozy character right through to the finish. Would like to try again sometime as maybe the bottle wasn’t up to par.

Having now tried the 60, 90 and 120 minute IPAs from dogfish head, I can safely say that this is my favorite. Big hop smell and big hop taste. To me a much better overall beer than the other two.

Pours medium orange with a smallish creamy white head. Light lacing on the glass that seems to hang around. Aroma of Raisins, hops some alcohol. Slight woody aroma with a citrusy tang. Aroma gets stronger as the beer warms. Slightly crisp mouthfeel from the bubbles. Taste of hops, honey, alcohol, dried fruits and rosemary. Some citrus flavors as the beer warms. Very well balanced with nothing too overpowering. Yummy. I would drink several of these or add them to the regular rotation if it weren’t so expensive
