Look: Deep black, with heavy bodied pout and minimal tan silk head
Taste: Rich roasted malt with sweet fruit and raisin notes
Conclusion: Dogfish head is a fantastic brewery and this brew is evidence of that. Their 90 Minute IPA is probably one of the best there is and this drink is no different.
It starts with a tart but decadently rich mouthfeel that is choc full of roasted malts. You don't get the harsh, burnt taste, but rather it is followed up with sweet and voluptuous fruit flavors that I could only describe as raisin-like. Possibly fig? The brew itself is created in Palo Santo wood barrels which are derived from an exotic South American wood. Boy, does it make this drink ever tasty.
This beer is very unique but just seems like the hot ticket if you're sitting down on a cold winter day or night by a fire. An unbelievably delicious take on the malt beverage that will have other brewer's jealous and trying to create it's equal. Another welcome superstar from Dogfish Head.
9 Brews!
