Commercial Description:
Johnny Cask has entered the building! We’ve retrofitted a 15 barrel tank to perfectly produce a very special cask conditioned ale (so, we have a little time to play around during winters at the Delaware coast). This beer, known as Dogfish Head 75 Minute IPA is a blend of 60 and 90 Minute IPAs with a special whole leaf cascade dry-hopping session. Post-hopping the beer gest transferred into firkins and dosed with fresh yeast and maple syrup from the ole family homestead (actually the first batch will be re-fermented with maple syrup from the farm up the road from ours since ours won’t be ready until late March.

Only the ratings for single-cask pours of this should be rated. The 50/50 blends of 60 and 90 where they come from different taps are not rateable, and do not belong here.

On cask at the Sunset in Allston. Sweet with hints of maple and fruit. Cascade hops providing some bitterness and pine. Rich palate. Really nice and dangerously drinkable.

Cask at Sunset. Interesting IPA. Fruity aroma. Grapefruit, cherry, and sugars to the taste. I enjoyed this one.

Enjoyed this very much on my last trip to DE at the Rehoboth beach brew pub. It’s a great beer and sweet to the taste the maple syrup shines through. Orange in color was a great sweet head. Very smooth and crisp. Great beer.

Hand pump at Rehoboth... Pumped into a regular pint glass, monster cascading head that took a couple minutes to settle. Nice orange color. Fresh hop aroma, that reminded me of the sixty minute. Taste is nice.... lots of fresh hops, not that bitter though. I can pick up a little of the 60 and 90 minute characteristics. Super smooth creamy texture. I love the beer at this warmer tempture (55F). Light and really easy to drink, I could of had finished the tank if they let me. Great beer, that is worth the drive. I cant wait to have another one.

Cask at the Rehoboth brewpub. Hazed orange amber with a big off white head that descends rockily. Very floral and grapefruit citrus nose, some caramel underneath. Resiny citrus flavor, not getting any of this maple that is supposed to be in it. Once I become accustomed to the citrus, a sweet caramel flavor emerges. Body is on the high side of medium, excellent webby lacing. I tried hard not to compare this to the 60 and 90, but it is inevitable - I like it a lot, striking the midway from the lighter 60 without the thick chewy 90 body. Good shit!

Draft @ Rehoboth brewpub. Medium bodied, caramel, maple sweetness, and a C-hop profile. Enjoyable IPA, and predictable that DFH would offer a blended and modified version of 60 + 90 minute IPA’s.

Cask sample. Pours hazy amber with a thin off white film of foam. Smells sweet and citrussy with some grassy hints. Tastes stick sweet with some caramel on the finish. Chewy mouthfeel.

Cask, or gravity keg at Blind Tiger can’t remember. Poured a cloudy frothy apple juice color. I liked the nose, a delicious hoppy malt nose. Similar to the 90 with a hint of windex, but a drinkable windex. Like it more than the 60 (which isn’t saying much). I honestly didn’t pick out the maple flavor, but was a few in to my session. If off center is what you are after than here it is.
