120 Minute IPA – Dogfish Head Brewery, Milton, DE.
ABV: 15-20% (I believe this year’s sat around 18%)
Style: Imperial IPA.
Seasonality: Rotating (once a year).
Drank: 12 oz. bottle, snifter.
Pour: Thick pour, with a hazy copper color. No head, but leaves good lacing.
Aroma: Lots of alcohol, sweet malts, and lots of citrus hops.
Taste: Sticky sweet malts, citrusy hops, and alcohol. Bready finish.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied and dry.
Unaged, this is pretty good. Very heavy, and very hot. Quite sweet, but the bitter citrus from the hops provides a nice contrast. Balanced, for as big as it is. Take a cue from the bottle, and put this one in your cellar for a year or two. Age will definitely be kind to this beer.
Food pairing: Something salty to cut the sweetness. Steamed clams or mussels, burger and fries, etc.
