60 Minute IPA

Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales


A very palatable, easy drinking IPA

Reviewed by RD

6.0% ABV

Colour: Beautiful clear pale amber body with a brief and fizzy off white head. Nice level of carbonation.

Nose: Citrus is the main aroma, but rather mellow with a sweet toffee edge and a little yeast presence. Subtle and very inviting.

Taste: First off it is very balanced, citrus hops are complimented perfectly with mild yet sweet malt. A little nutty flavour before the hops return with a slight bitter bite before a clean aftertaste Light bodied and pleasing crisp mouthfeel.

Overall Experience: I’ve drunk both 90 minute IPA and Johnny Cask so I was expecting bags of sappy resinous hops. But this was very easy drinking and expertly balanced. I could happily drink this IPA all night long. And as Dogfish Head are now being distributed in the UK by Vertical Drinks this could easily become my “Go-to” IPA. It may not your mouth pucker with its hops punch but I challenge you not to enjoy this beer!

    I wasn’t that taken with it! I drank all the bottles I’d been brought of course but it had a weird taste that reminded me of corned beef.
