Dec 24, 2007 Good grief, I enjoyed this beer. Huge Dogfish fan anyway so been trying to grab this out and have a go. Christmas Eve so I did.
Fairly close to the 90 minute on the pour, maybe a little darker.
Smells absolutely wonderful. Hoppy with that underlying woody smell of the oak. I could smell this all day.
One of the best tasting beers I’ve had so far. Prefect blend of hops and bourbon. Wonderful. Wish I had another bottle.
I will be going back to grab another few bottles of this. This stuff is great. Don’t know how many I could drink due to the 10% but I want this around all the time. Loved it.

Dec 23, 2007 Thanks to my BA SS for this! Pours a really hazy shade of amber with extremly thin head and 2 rings of lacing. Hoppy aroma. Flavor was complex, however was really cloying and left a sticky mouth-feel. As this warmed up the sweetness mellowed out a bit. Sweet caramel, toffee, maple syrup, oak, and vanilla round out iipa
like alot of the dfh big offerings this is a little to sweet, however not offensive like the 120

Dec 11, 2007 Has a strong aroma of apricots and malt. The color is like that of a brandy. The taste is really amazing, strong apricot and malt, amazingly complex. This is very similar to a dessert wine, neat beer.

Dec 11, 2007 Updated: Sep 1, 2008Trade from sweet Lou18. Amber color with almost no head. Nose is somewhat sweet with pineapple accents and fruity undertones. Flavor is awesome, with a sweetness and fruit charactaristic mixed with a bit of heat and oak. Mid to full mouthfeel.

Nov 30, 2007 12 oz. Bottle. Great mix between hoppy and sweet. I don’t really taste the fruits that others have. It goes down quite easy.

Nov 25, 2007 Updated: Oct 29, 2008Honestly, this tastes to me like the 120. Undoubtedly oaky, hoppy and with the merest hints of cranberry and raspberry. Very thick and so hopped it begins to taste round. Hard to find, but have seen it with some regularity at Papago Brewery in Scottsdale, AZ.

Nov 21, 2007 Hoppy and oaky at the same time. Nice flavor and nice fullness. Rich, with a sweet hoppiness, but also malty enough to have body. Very easy drinking, but the alcohol is noticable, unlike most of the Dogfish Head family.

Nov 16, 2007 Updated: May 27, 2008 Pour is amber and tan brown with a thick off-white head. Nose is sweet with caramel. Taste is well balanced malt and hoppiness with warm alcohol finish. Other flavors are vanilla and oak. Full mouthfeel.
