Notes:
60 Minute IPA is continuously hopped -- more than 60 hop additions over a 60-minute boil. (Getting a vibe of where the name came from?)
60 Minute is brewed with a slew of great Northwest hops. A powerful but balanced East Coast IPA with a lot of citrusy hop character, it's the session beer for hardcore enthusiasts!

Pours a clear deep gold, 1" fluffy head with good retention and excellent lacing. Nose is tacky, resinous hop, significant roasted barley note, and sweet malts. Barley is prominent up front, followed by citrusy hop (orange, grapefruit), and some mild bitterness. Palate is assertive but light. Roasted flavor subsides a touch as it warms, replaced with a little more hop spice in addition to the citrus notes. Definitely fits with what I think of as the DFH flavor profile. Feel has little weight, but not overwhelming; carbonation is crisp. Easy to like.

Pleasantly piney with citrus rind notes. Not quite as enticing as the 90 but more suited for a session.

The 90 minute IPA is fantastic and so is this.
Very similar to the 90 minute ipa, just with the amount of malt cut down to accommodate a 6% ABV. Slightly hazy golden color, fantastic aroma and flavor. Great for picnics or when the 90 minute would otherwise be too boozy.

Pours beautifully, dark gold with a finger of head. Nice aroma, a little pungent with hops. The taste is very forward. Lots of hops, notes of pine and some more subtle citrus.
Overall a solid beer. I live a town over from both Bells and Founders so I’m a bit spoiled when it comes to IPAs and compare everything to a high bar. This one is good, but falls short of great. It lacks balance, a little too hoppy without any particular flavor standing out.

L: Poured from a 12oz bottle into a pint glass - golden color with a big head 2 fingers length risen. Some lacing left behind as the foam dissolves into liquid.
S: Fruity aroma, orange apricot, malts, IPA aromas.4
T: Just as it follows with a bite. Orange, citrusy tastes with hops and some malts not as much as I smelled.
F: Easy drinker, medium bodied, light carbonation.
O: I actually like this IPA. I'm a stout guy but would definitely prefer this over Lagunitas. Definitely worth a try!

Look - golden and a little cloudy, nice white head
Smell - floral, pine, hop dankness
Taste - citrus, pine, hop bitterness
Feel - light body and carbonation. hoppy resin, crisp and dry finish.
Overall - Been a while since I've had this one and I'm happy I got it. Really good hop bitterness but not in an overpowering way. Has that old school feel and taste. I love that it's 6% ABV so I'll be adding this into my rotation mix. I thoroughly enjoyed this fine IPA while jamming to Hall of the Mountain King by Savatage.

Poured from bottle into a pint glass
Appearance: Clear orange with a small amount of white foamy head
Smell: Citrus aroma with a mix of hops
Taste: Follows the nose with citrus plus hops. Not as complex or flavorful as Dogfish 90 minute IPA.
Mouthfeel: Smooth and medium bodied with a low-to-moderate level of carbonation.
Overall: Definitely a decent IPA, but there is a reason why this beer is not as highly regarded as its cousin, the 90 minute IPA.

Well, had it at a Buffalo wings spot. Definitely not what it should be served like.
But, I can tell that properly handed, this would be an amazing beer.
Notes of strawberries, and orange zest.

I have had Dogfish Head's 90 Minute IPA before, which is just a phenomenal beer, and I have had Bell's Two Hearted Ale before, which is just 60 Minute IPA but better. There's some legends you simply cannot live up to. Your parents tell you you can be anything you want, but not everyone can be 90MIPA or Two Hearted Ale. That's life.
Clear and orangeish with a three finger head. Beautiful IPA, Dogfish Head rarely disappoints when it comes to the aesthetics. Smells lemony. Pleasant! Tastes... Like hops. Not even great hops. Just hops. Limited flavors of anything else. It's not unpleasant but leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to my expectations of this particular brewery. Light and bubbly and happy in the mouth. It's a good beer, but there's just better equally available alternatives that makes it hard to imagine buying this again.

They took an extra 30 minutes to make a much better beer called 90 minute IPA. Or so the joke goes. 60 minute is ok, but honestly pretty mediocre.
