I had this 18%-alcohol, 120-minute IPA at City Beer Store earlier this week. To my surprise, I really liked it.

I tend to not enjoy really hoppy beers when I feel it drowns out all other flavor, and I’m not even especially into the Dogfish Head 90-minute IPA. But this beer was excellent– the hops don’t come on as strong because there’s such a powerful malt/caramel and alcohol taste as well, without being as sweet as a barleywine.
