We brew 120 Minute IPA a few times a year, but it goes fast. If you find some grab a few bottles -- some to enjoy and some to age.
Every Beer Has A Story...
Check out our Quick Sip Clip to see Sam talking about 120 Minute IPA. In the video, Sam also shows off some of our vintage pieces of brewing equipment, including our second-generation continuous-hopping device, Sir Hops Alot. He also touches on why we dialed 120 Minute IPA back in ABV, some aging recommendations, and a little lesson on IBU measurement. Enjoy!

2011 bottle.
Pours a murky light brown with a small and short lived head of foam. No lacing.
Huge notes of caramel in the smell. Sherry and some fruity aromas.
Caramel taste up front but not as sweet as the smell suggested. Oxidation brings some notes of Sherry more than Port. A little bit fruity, a lot boozy but at the same time smooth. Reminds me of an aged Barleywine or Old Ale from the UK.
Full bodied with light carbonation.
I'm pleased.
0,3 litre Bottle from Total Wine And More, Laguna Hills, Ca. Amber with white head. Booze, alcoholic, strong, unpleasant.

Bottle from Brad. Reddish brown color. Candied fruit and flowery hops in the aroma. Malty sweet, sugary, but also firm flowery hopbitter flavor with dried red fruit and grapefruit. Alcohol is present, but well hidden considering the very high ABV. Deceptively drinkable and decently balanced. Very very long aftertaste. Good!

Bottle from BevMo in Dana Point at home in HK. Rich ruby-copper pour with fine white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is complex - candied apple, deep pine resin hop, chewy bready malt like a wee heavy. In fact sort of like a massively hopped - with pine resin - big scotch ale. Taste is sweet but not quite treacly and hugely bitter. Jammy fruit, tingly bitterness. Rich palate but not too heavy somehow. Very good enormous pine-forward IPA, balances by giant sweet plum-bread malt.

02/22/16, Is this a barleywine yet? Shamed by the latest malt couture episode, clearing out my cellar of these. Jk, I never thought they'd turn into barleywine, but still clearing out since no room in the fridge. Ultra malty nose, pretty smooth considerin

Seavans tasting, thanks Jon and Gregg. Comparison of 2015 and 2017 versions, both 18% abv (in 2019). 2015: Darker orange our, bit hazy and some beige bubbles. Apple jam in the nose, some sweetness but not sticky, light hops. Taste is soft sweet and boozy, some oak but still drinks easy, especially for such high abv. Hop marmalade, well blended together. Warming, raisins, good balance actually (3.8). 2017: Creamy orange pour with some white foam there. Nose has some grassy hops, sweet tropical fruits, persimmons. Tastes hoppy, sweet and with a good hop bite. Booze there but super hidden compared with the abv it has. Too easygoing. Good and still feels like IPA, not like barleywine (4.0).
