I am a beer enthusiast and home brewer from southeast Wisconsin. While mostly a hop-head, I’m happy to sample any beer at least twice and I appreciate any style that pushes the limits of my palette.

  Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA

  Its like, if hops could make you go blind, this beer might just do it. Although I didn't get much aroma out of it. The mouth feel is nice and rich and that's the only way it can stand up to the hops.

  Perfectly balanced for a big beer. The sweet malt really comes through and the mouthfeel is rich without being too thick and cloying. Then the ample hops shine through. Not so much in the aroma but definitely in the flavor and general bitterness.

  This is another great stone offering. Dark amber color, full hop nose and lively flavor. The malt backing supports the hops and results in a well balanced brew.

  Something wrong with my bottle too. It poured ALL head in two different glasses. Once all the carbonation is forced out the beer looses it's dimensions. Glimpses of what the beer is supposed to be comes through and I'm anxious to try it again and revise me review.

  There'a bit belgium here, but it's clearly an IPA all the way. Awesome hop bitter and flavor and enough body to back it up. Thick head and nice color.
