mribm (416), Hurley, New York, USA Aug 18, 2002 This beer had a head that lasted as long as it took me to remove the cork! Nice lace too. Even though it took so long to remove the cork, it was worth it! Unbelievable is all I can say. This beer poured a beautiful copper orange color and had a strong smell of citrusy hops. The taste was out of this world...by far the BEST IPA I have ever had. This is one of the hoppiest beers I have tasted. It makes Sierra Nevadas Celebration Ale and Victory’s Hop Devil look like pale ales in comparison. I love this beer and thus it gets a top rating. (Disclaimer: I am partial to hops.) Prostman (1076), Pennsylvania, USA Nov 12, 2002 My own personal "quest" for finding 90 Minute IPA was just as great as the beer. For some time, I was not able to find this beer, and then when a case became available, it was scoffed up before I could buy it. Ok, now finally to the beer. I picked up the crazy labeled beer yesterday at my favorite restaurant, Cooper’s and popped the cork. Immediately, I was hit with a huge hop aroma. The beer poured a very deep gold color and was somewhat hazy. The half inch egg white head lasted and laced the whole way down the glass. The tasted was hoppy, of course, but as it warmed, a nice maltiness became apparent to balance the taste. It also finished very creamy as my mouth became accustomed to the hops. This is a amazing beer and well deserving of a perfect score. I know that many of you hate to give perfect score, but I think that can be justified for a beer that is just as great to drink as it was hard to find. dberger624 (1029), Phila, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 15, 2002 This is THE beer for Hopheads. Nice hoppy aroma and flavor VTDeerHunter (51), Vermont, USA Jul 2, 2003 I have found my new favorite beer. Orange with a white foamy head. Very well balanced between malt and hops. Nothing is overbearing, but it's still a large beer. Also, there's none of the harshness that I found in 60-minute. Smooth and good. This is how IPA should be. weisinator (66), USA Sep 15, 2005 I like hops. I didn’t realize just how much I liked hops until I tried this. OMFG, this is quite possibly the BEST beer I have EVER had.
