    The IPAs for the Holidays 12pk contains four varieties of IPAs including:

    • Sixty One – 12-pack EXCLUSIVE!
      • A marriage of two Dogfish Head innovations: beer-wine hybrids and continually hopped IPAs. Dogfish took its best-selling 60 Minute and added Syrah grape must to create an IPA with equal parts fruity complexity and pungent hoppiness.
    • 60 Minute IPA
      • A continually hopped super-fantastic East Coast IPA brewed with a slew of great Northwest hops for a powerful, but balanced, citrusy hop character.
    • 90 Minute IPA
      • A continually hopped Imperial IPA whose powerful malt backbone stands up to the extreme hopping rate for a pungent, not crushing flavor.
    • Indian Brown Dark IPA
      • A boisterous brown ale meets well-hopped IPA is brewed with aromatic dark malt, organic brown sugar and dry-hopped liberally for your holiday-drinking pleasure.

    Seems strange that they are marketing this as a "holiday" pack. Not much in there that relates to holidays.

    Nice to see 61 make a return though.

    Oh shit! Sixty One is awesome. I really miss that beer. One of the only beers paired well with marinara. @utopiajane

    Honestly, it kinda sucks that they are only putting the 61 in the holiday pack. Especially since the other beers are year round beers. Wish they would’ve put them in 4 packs again, cause that beer was amazing!

    I will get it because I love all the beers. On a personal note I would have loved to see a new holiday pack with new stuff. I have been watching the packs come out and yet to see anyone blowing people away. The feed I see is ok, average, some are good, etc. Would be cool to see a pack come out and people surprised with the creative new items, but that is just my thought, anyway.

    If they'd left out Indian Brown and put 75 min IPA in there I might actually buy this. Has that ever been in 12 oz bottles?

    need to revisit 61, I was not a fan first time. I like the others though.

    Enjoy

    I've never seen it in anything other than 750 ml bottles.

    In other Dogfish news, I think Liquid Truth Serum is actually quite tasty.

    Can you get Truth Serum outside their local area (other states), I thought I read it was local only?

    I was looking online and saw 6 packs of bottles for $14.99, but not sure what each state will be, AZ has not posted any yet so not even sure on my costs.

    I purchased a 6 pack of Liquid Truth Serum yesterday in Connecticut for $11.99 - a good price tag for a 7% ABV beer. And I as well was quite impressed with it, bitterness is so light, making these easy to crush. Happy Bryan Selders is back behind the helm at DFH brewing the experimental beers again.

    That is a great price, lol I keep looking around AZ and no luck, so odd since we get everything else all the time, maybe later this week.
    I noticed in the extreme brewing skits they busted this stuff out each one, so from then I wanted it, glad to hear its tasty.
    Cheers

    The IPA 12 pack at my total wine was $23.99, kinda disappointed it’s that much and released so long before Christmas. Contrary to previous poster we haven’t seen truth serum in my part of VA yet

    When did Indian brown become an IPA?

    Since anything labelled "IPA" practically sells itself these days...

    If you can get it fresh it most definitely has the hop presence. At the brewery I would definitely say IPA.
