Pours a dark orange-copper with thin head. Intense hop aroma. Flavor is hugely bitter, with the pine bite of the hops and some citrusy notes. Very thick, almost syrupy mouth feel. Quite a bitter finish to the beer. One of the better "super IPAs" floating around. This was more what I was expecting from the Dogfish Head 120 Minute--something still recognizeably an IPA, yet pushed to the extreme.

Purchased at Hyde Park Wine & Spirits in Cincinnati, OH; enjoyed after adjusting to a new job, paying a bogus parking ticket, and finding a credit card and watch I was convinced were gone so I tore up my whole apartment, only to find both of them in the car. I need the strong stuff!!! Appearance a very bright ruby red with a thin white head that rims around the glass, looks like a witches potion. Aroma robust in citrusy hops, very sweet, malts are present but subservient, also fruity, not really grapefruit but more of some sort of passion fruit, and in a way this smells reminiscent to weed. In terms of the taste, I already feel calmer. This thing is equal parts floral and citrus hops, the malts are like Tootsie Rolls combined with the sweetness, it’s fruity, I have to say it but the aftertaste is like walking into a room that smells like Otto’s jacket, combined with a touch of alcohol but nowhere near tastes like it’s a 12%er. The hops come out even more as it warms, and the bitterness also increases but it still keeps the profile very well. Thoroughly impressed, wouldn’t have often, definitely a special occasion brew.

tap at the brewpub last summer - Pours deep copper with a small head. It smells of intense pine accented hops. The flavor is of really huge hop bitterness with pine and citrus notes that carries into the finish with a bitter, long lasting bite that seems to go on forever. It’s a full bodied brew with the abv buried in the intense flavors.
