saw this the other day in the store and decided to get some:

pretty hoppy, and i think a bit stronger (9%) than the regular 90 min IPA. also got some of the shelter pale ale, but not as much of a fan. i like what dogfish is doing, but their lineup is still hit or miss w/ me.

You know it's all about the Raison.

I will never try their IPAs again myself. To be avoided at all costs. The 120 minute version turned me off of hoppy beer for a good six months.

What is that one?

Yeah, the 120 is nasty. Yuck. The 60 though is a work of art.

 

[narlus]

it's the 90 minute imperial IPA. didn't know IPAs could be imperial. figured that was the stout's domain.

I almost picked up some of that last night. What would you say are the other "Hits".

i like the 60 min IPA and the indian brown ale the best. they are excellent. the chicory stout is ok, as is the au courant and 90 min IPA. the shelter pale ale is below that, and the raison d'etre and 120 min IPA i can't see myself every buying again.

 

[berkshire_rider]

60 min IPA will probably be the next one I try.

LOL!

The Raison is definitely in my top five of all time. So good...must be an acquired taste?

I keep forgetting about the Indian Brown. That was a ****ing amazing beer, I can't believe I've only had it once.

Check in Clifton Park next time your down that way. The store I used to go to on Rte 9 carried everything. I think it was called Savemore Beverage, or something like that. If you get off the Northway at exit #9, and go over to Rte 9, head south. About a half mile past Wal-Mart, it's on your right between a used car dealer and a liquor store. If you come to Grooms Rd, you have gone too far.

I finally picked up a pack of their
Midas Touch, which sounds very interesting. First time I've seen it.

The Aprihop will be available in a few weeks, I'm looking forward to that since discovering Pyramid's Apricot Ale.

The Indian Brown is always a good choice, available pretty widely and better than any other brown I've tried.

i got a 4 pack of the aprihop last night....it was far better than i was expecting.

Looks like I need to go home through Clifton Park soon!
