Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA

Tastes much like the more superior 90 minute IPA, but just a little lighter. Strong hops with slight cherry undertone. Pretty darn good.

Very good IPA. Almost completely crisp. Great hop flavors and aromas. Could drink plenty of this one. NIce work.

Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Pour produced a clear, amber body topped by a medium, off-white head which mostly diminished to a light dusting of foam. Light effervescence played around in the glass for some time. Nice hops characteristic with some grapefruit notes to the nose. This is a medium bodied, moderately carbonated IPA with a medium mouthfeel punctuated by the typical hops bitterness. Overall profile is well balanced, favoring the dry, bitter hops, rounded out by slight malting. Hops aftertaste is minimal, favoring instead to show up in the oft-welcomed "hopurps." This is a fine, easy drinking IPA well worth your time and money.

Generous head, golden color with great lacing. Pale malt underneath the citrsuy hops aromas. Taste is less intense than the 90 Minute, yet still generously hoppy with a well-balanced malt offset. In the background are lemon and orange, and slight pine and pepper flavors. Lots of carbonation, crisp with a dry aftertaste that is dominated by the hops. Dogfish is great - wish they were on the West Coast.

The least continously hopped of Dogfish’s one-of-a-kind IPA’s (60,90,120), this beer is still crisp and well balanced, and has a long, drying, yet fresh and fruity finish. It makes an excellent session beer, being lively, herbal and full bodied. The intense grassy and floral hops carry notes of tropical citrus fruit and papaya, and in the aroma bring unique resiny notes of lemon-pepper and chives. Excellently crafted, as all of Dogfish Head’s beers are, and one that I enjoy before a big summer dinner to work up a raging appetite.
