After, i caught dinner at orchids and shared a Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA with Shad. This is such a crazy beer, nearly impossible to get your hands on one of these anywhere on the west coast - (i found just one of these bottles at aloha liquor in carson city).
This beer is 21% ABV and 130 IBU (hop bitterness). The biggest thing we noticed was how incredibly sweet it was despite the high hop content, this is not a hoppy beer in the slightest, because of how much malt/alcohol is in it. It also doesn't really taste like alcohol, it reminded us both way more of a desert wine than a beer, paired very well with dark chocolate - hop wine is a better description than beer for this interesting and unique brew.
Review - I'd give this an A- as its incredibly unique and pretty smooth, but not something to drink very often.
this beer was very different, amazed by this very sweet melon like taste.. I would have to agree very good with dark chocolate. thanks so much bro for sharing this with me, its been a much anticipated beer.
