Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA

IPA - American

The Holy Grail for hopheads, 120 Minute IPA is continuously hopped with a copious amount of high-alpha American hops throughout the boil and whirlpool, aged in Sam Adams Utopias barrels for a full twelve months, and then abundantly dry-hopped.

So rich, full, fruity and smooth, never suspect it it is 17%, except for the barrel boozy. Which I thought was bourbon barrels, but is beer barrels. Aged in Sam Adam's Utopias barrels (barrels from cognac and Madeira), 28% with MSRP of $240 a bottle.

Gonna be a slow sipper one and done kind of night. Boozy and raisin on the nose. Can't remember the last 120 i had, but it is malty, boozy w/ raisin. Don't even taste like 120. Vanilla. Slowly it is getting hoppy and citrusy.

Egads, man. This is complex in all the right ways. Great variant of the 120 and I think I prefer this to the Utopias World Wide, surprisingly.

What can I say, this beer takes the legend even further. So many flavors come together. It’s another case of super-hopped, but ends up with the sweetness of a Barleywine. I need to find more of this. Cheers!

I dog it. It's a little rummy, but starts out porter-like, followed by sherry, bourbon, raisins, dates and a soft hop finish.

What a malty nightmare. This is crossing into all sorts of mead/barley wine territory, does not feel right to call it a beer. Honey is nice but the finish is horrendous. Does not belong in IPA class at all, process does not equal finish.

Confused taste buds- is it a beer or a distilled spirit? It’s very tasty and very barley wine like. Thanks for sharing Jerry!

Easily one of my favorites. Taste a lot more like a barrel aged barley wine.

well, i was hoping for more very drinkable... smooth for 17% a.b.v , but at $9/ bottle, i expected more. i recommend it, but doubt I'll buy a 2nd 4pack.

Boozy amd full-bodied. Nice I picked this beer between the 2 choices I was offered.

Has the nose of the utopias that was similar to the WWS iteration. Sweet Carmel and fig with the normal 120 flavors. Unreal!

Definitely has that smooth barrel taste that’s rich and almost a little sweet like vanilla. You can barely make out the hop on the backend. Tasted about a month after bottling.

Way more boozy than I thought. Much stronger than reg 120 no mellowing it out. Mine was warmed up some before drinking so prob why. Still fantastic!

The taste follows the nose with very well balanced Utopia barrels, citrus and hop flavors. Alcohol aftertaste burns to sweet and burn.

Not what I was expecting at all. Very little hops and mostly tasted caramel/figs. Very good beer but not sure if I can handle many of them at 17% abv
