Harsh! You really have to like hops in a big way. My stomach exploded. ✓

I am going to start with this is typically my favorite beer. However, this year was a little quick and thin. The carmel piney notes were present up front and the touch of malt hit mid palate, but there wasn't the lingering flavors I expect.

Have had previous years that were really good. Not sure if it’s an off year or it got oxidized. Not terrible but not great.

This has all the taste of a traditional IPA but with an unusually strong sweet malty taste. Noticeable taste of resinous hops, probably due to the aging in hop leaves. 16% ABV powerhouse, but surprisingly smooth. Second half did taste a lot better.

Not liking this one for some reason. Reminds me of a hazy dry hopped IPA, which I'm not a fan of.

Too sweet for me. Would prefer more balance between the bitter hop and some malty mellow. Still pleased with the ABV, keep that up Dogfish Head!

16 v 17 v 19 v 20...boozy. def tastes great aged at least a year. Wonder if aging too long brings out too much sweetness.

To my mind this beer is much more approachable with some aging.

I respect it for what it is, but it’s not my thing.

In the past, I’ve loved this beer. Current year is a straight up booze bomb. Doesn’t have that nice hop bite from years past. 2020 is just full of disappointment all around. Bottle with lots of sediment too, which may be a factor.
