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.

Plenty of booze to follow all of the barrel goodness. For this being 17% there is plenty of balance running through this beer.

Damn bro! This is a DIPA but it's basically a sweet barleywine.

A bit of an IPA bite at the end, but the Utopias flavor makes it taste like a very complex barley wine. I have three more that I'll be aging. Figured I'd have a special beer after finishing my deck refresh.

This is so much better than the regular 120, sweet raisin and smooth as butter

120 with Utopias!? Holy hell. Run out and buy as much of this beast as you can. Seriously worth the price tag. If you don't like it, I'll drink it for you. 😁

Tons of raisin and prune. Sweet. Not a ton of hop profile. Very reminiscent of a barleywine.

Delightful! Almost body numbing to boot. It has that candied hop character. Spectacular! It’s Lila a Brady barrel barleywine. There’s orange marmalade, pine, bourbon, brandy, sherry, wood, vanilla, lemon, pine, more wood, date, raisin, apricot, caramel…

I never knew how bad I needed a barrel-aged 120 until now. Smooth, sweet, & a nice amount of booze 🍻

The hops are even more mellow than reg 120 and is sweeter & smoother. Cognac & orange & smooth. Booze is less pronounced too

A work of art. This is mind blowing. The 120 in the utopias barrels is. Perfection. The notes in this IPA from sitting in that barrel are intense and almost caramelize the great taste of a 120. I’m blown away…

Gotta say I prefer the OG. This is a straight strong ale, not a high test barleywine

Not much like an IPA, it's fruity and boozy like an old ale or strong ale. Good beer tho!

Medium amber w/ significant chill haze. Darker & infinitely more complex than 120 Minute IPA, w/ rich caramel malt nose. So much less bitter. I get a Gran Marnier booziness w/ curaçao-like orange. I had to take a taste of 2021 Utopias for comparison.
