Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA

[TampaBrew]

Fuck. Ok.

I'll tweak my suggestion.

Go get another one. Stash one for many years. and drink the other. or attempt to drink it at least

You should at least try it. I didn't hate it, its just A LOT. It's overwhelming. Drink it. But don't drink it late night style after a few. You won't want that. A lot of people like this beer a lot. Who knows, you might dig it.

Unfortunately it's a 6 hour drive back to where I got it. My wife has been giving me hell that I should have gotten 2 bottles. However I'm broke and these where $9 a bottle. I've set it aside for now. Maybe one day I'll be in the mood to drink it.

Drink it! I can get it at my local, would be no biggie for me to drop one in the mail!

Shit, Lufah-

How much did you spend on gas driving 6 hours only to get 1 stinking $9 bottle of cough syrup?

I guess if The Asshat fits.....

(j/k) I'm sure you got something else, right?

I'll third that. Drop one of us a PM and it's sticky sweetness is on its way!

I was visiting my inlaws.

Anyway I did it. I don't know if I will be able to drink the whole thing. It's ok in sips, but not great or anything. I totally agree with the cough syrup statements. I think I may pick up another bottle next time I see it and put it back for like 10 years and see how it is



Thanks to everyone for the input and beer offers!

In general, I'd agree with what's being said here about DFH. The 60 Minute was one of my first "ah-ha" beers, and I found hops. Actually, my first comment to my friend was something like, "holy shit, this beer smells like homegrown!" But, as I explored more of the beer world, they have dropped in my book, with only a couple stand out beers (Raison D' Etre being my favorite).

But with regards to their 120, I've only had it once, and that was maybe three years ago, and I remember coming away with a fairly positive impression. I remember being really suprised at the amount of bitterness/hop character they crammed into a 21%+ beer, and thought it actually tasted like a beer as opposed to something like Utopias, which comes across more as a spirit. Perhaps they've had fermentation issues as of late? I'll have to revisit it.
