Beer-a-Day #193

Esquire Magazine calls [Dogfish Head] 90 Minute IPA., “perhaps the best I.P.A. in America.” An Imperial I.P.A. brewed to be savored from a snifter. A big beer with a great malt backbone that stands up to the extreme hopping rate.

I talked about the 60 Minute IPA recently, so this is the same, only more so. Right? About one-and-a-half times more.

Pretty golden color, not unlike a bock. Big floral and spice hop aroma. Lotsa hops there, with a hint of oakiness. This wouldn’t be bad to cellar. Delicious. As I get further into it, the better it gets.
