I had this last week too. Enjoyable and much more well-balanced than I expected. I prefer the 90-minute (what can I say, I never tire of hops), but this is a good sessionable beer.devildeac wrote:Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA-Heck, I can't remember if I reviewed this last week and I tried the search and found no results so I'll/re-review it tonight. A very pleasant session IPA. A bit more piney and a bit less floral than the Bridgeport with little, if any citrus. Clean and crisp. Not bottle conditioned. IBU probably 50-60 and ABV is 6%. Makes a nice dinner beverage with mild grilled fish or chicken and some veggies. It's part of my tasting session tonight with a Great Divide IPA . You'll see some DFH next Saturday. Several varieties.
Agreed with that..it's a good one just to sit and enjoy a few for whatever reason. The 90 minute is way tasty, but the 60 is worth the price to take home often.rockymtn devil wrote: I had this last week too. Enjoyable and much more well-balanced than I expected.

I LOVE the Great Divide Titan IPA. If, by chance, you and the fellow DDs make it to Colorado this winter, I'll have a bottle of GD's Hercules IIPA waiting (on a side note, I'm no scholar, but wouldn't Titans be more fierce than Hercules?; if so, GD got the names mixed up).devildeac wrote:Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA-Heck, I can't remember if I reviewed this last week and I tried the search and found no results so I'll/re-review it tonight.

Exactly. The 90-Minute comes in 4 packs for a reason. The 60 Minute is a drinkable beer, which I love, especially during football season.CameronBornAndBred wrote:Agreed with that..it's a good one just to sit and enjoy a few for whatever reason.

I hadn't enjoyed a 60 Minute for a couple years and glad I grabbed a 6er last week. Agree with your thoughts, too.CameronBornAndBred wrote:Agreed with that..it's a good one just to sit and enjoy a few for whatever reason.

I'm not sure who wins either, Hercules or Titan...rockymtn devil wrote:I LOVE the Great Divide Titan IPA.

I'd probably go with Hercules. Both he and the Titans were demigods, but Hercules was more revered (regarded as something of a patron of humankind), and the Titans really only functioned best as a 12-person unit. Hercules could easily take any Titan one-on-one.devildeac wrote:I'm not sure who wins either, Hercules or Titan...
Perhaps some of our historians might chime in here... :roll:

Have one of the Allagash specialty brews like their anniversary ale or Grand Cru.YmoBeThere wrote:Anything I should have from the Boston area before I get out of town?

I ordered the Scotch Ale, that was a good one from last year. Maybe I'll save a few longer than I did, but I doubt it. I also ordered a new fermenter, I need to replace both of them, but one at time. Ordered from Asheville brewing supply, he is always good about speedy delivery, so I'm hoping I'll have it Wednesday.devildeac wrote:And I'll have two thirsts...CameronBornAndBred wrote:I'm bottling my "everygrainIhadleftover" brew today.

thanks for sharing. amusing.CathyCA wrote:I saw this and thought of you guys here in the Ymm, Beer thread:
Our lager, Which art in barrels, Hallowed be thy drink, Thy will be drunk, (I will be drunk), At home as I am in the tavern. Give us this day our foamy... head, And forgive us our spillages, As we forgive those who spill against us..., and lead us not to incarceration, But deliver us from hangovers. *hiccup*
