DOGFISH HEAD 60 MINUTE IPA (@dogfishbeer)

When I heard that we were able to get Dogfish Head beer again in these parts I damn near split my pants with the instant erection I got.  Dogfish Head has been gone for about 3 years now or ever since their show “Brewmaster’s” mysteriously was pulled from the History Channel’s programming lineup for allegedly upsetting the Beverage Giant MBEV who coincidently is a major sponsor (Budweiser) of said channel! 

All that being said I had to sit back and follow Dogfish Head (@dogfishbeer) on twitter and Crackbook silently hoping it would return to me someday!  Well my wait is over and I present Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA!

Style: American IPA

%ABV: 6.0

Brewery: Dogfish Head Craft Brewery

BeerAdvocate: 92 Outstanding!!!

As far as IPAs go 60 minute is a solid as they come.  Not too hoppy and not too malty.  Its flavor profile is a well-balanced IPA and pairs with Pizza of any style!  The beer pours a nice light straw color with a nice bubbly head.  The aroma is that of hops with hints of malt and grass.   First sip is a modest hop explosion with a smooth bitter finish with hints of malt.  It’s a lighter tasting beer for an IPA and I’m pretty sure I could drink several of these much to the chagrin of my liver! 

Right now we can get the 60 minute, 90 minute IPAs and Midas Touch which is an ancient ale.  I found Dogfish at both Binny’s and Friar Tuck in Champaign, IL.  Haven’t found it yet in Indiana where up until 3 years ago it was abundant.  So if you’re craving some DFH Beer then I highly suggest you get your ass in a car and shag ass to Champaign and get your drink on!

Cheers!
