Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA
Beer-a-Day #183
For all their ubiquity I can’t believe I haven’t written anything about one of these before. And I like drinking local.
Our 60 Minute IPA is continuously & intensely hopped. A session India Pale Ale brewed with Warrior, Amarillo & ‘Mystery Hop X.’ A powerful East Coast I.P.A. with a lot of citrusy hop character. The session beer for hardcore beer enthusiasts!
Light amber in color, with an off-white head. Loads of hops in the aroma; the grapefruit is pronounced. That is good, and I can taste every one of those 60 IBUs.
I will be having this again and again.

Belgica—the Roman name the Low Countries—is a marriage of the best in American and Belgian brewing traditions. Belgian pilsner malt, a generous amount of American and European hops and a unique Belgian yeast strain combine to give Belgica big notes of citrus and spice, creating a lively concoction perfect for spring in the [...]

Our hop heaping IPA is a golden nectar garnering thunderous reviews. Its floral aroma strikes a harmonious blend between a sweet malt flavor and bold hop bitterness. Enjoy this thirst quenching adventure.
A pretty light amber, clear with an ivory colored head. Pineapple and grapefruit aroma from the hops. Nice flavor with a pleasant [...]

This was my second visit to Watch City Brewing in Waltham, Massachusetts, just outside of Boston. (My first trip recounts a return trip was warranted.) The bar room was not too busy, but not entirely empty early on for a Monday Night Football evening. I would have liked to stay longer, but it was a long [...]

Ten years ago we brewed our first batch of Shoals Pale Ale, our American interpretation of the traditional British ESB (Extra Special Bitter) style. At the time, it was widely considered to be darned hoppy. However, a funny thing happened over the last decade – our Shoals Pale Ale didn’t change; beer lovers did, [...]

Medium amber with a little chill haze. Big hop aroma, with grapefruit and toast. Big hop flavor and delicious.
They should just call this “hop head’s delight”.

Sierra Nevada Torpedo Ale is a big American IPA; bold, assertive and full of flavor and aromas highlighting the complex citrus, pine and herbal character of whole-cone American hops.
I’d been hearing a lot about this beer, but I wasn’t seeing it at any of my local retailers. I’m glad it came into my hands [...]

Menacingly delicious, with the powerful, aromatic punch of whole flower American hops backed up by rich, German malts. HopDevil Ale offers a roller coaster ride of flavor, coasting to a smooth finish that satisfies fully.
I am an unapologetic hop-head. How could I not get something called “HopDevil”?

This tribute to West Coast-style American IPAs is loaded with American hops from start to finish balanced by a touch of malty sweetness.
Orangish-amber with a thick head. Very sharp grapefruity aroma. Nice bite. Good stuff.
