120 Minute IPA (2019)

IPA - Quadruple

Too extreme to be called beer? Brewed to a colossal 45°P, boiled for a full 2 hours while being continually hopped with high alpha American hops, dry-hopped every day in the fermenter for a month, and aged for a month on whole leaf hops, 120 Minute IPA is by far the strongest IPA ever brewed. And at 21% ABV and 120 IBU’s, you can see why we are calling this the Holy Grail for Hopheads.

Big American barleywine bomb. Caramel. Earthy hops. That is a big boy. Figgy.

3 and a half years is the perfect amount of time for bottle conditioning for 120. Wonderfully floral notes with a boozy citrus note and bitter backbone. It's still an 18% beer but the time has, of course, mellowed it. 120 doesn't get better than this.

A good pour. Only let a little yeast in which seems suspended.

Three years only deepened the barley wine notes, but the hops are still nice. Such a delicious brew!

One of my favorites. So hard to hold back on popping the top on this one, but it just mellows so nicely over time.

Nose is terrible. Initial taste is super sweet. Immediately turns bitter and off putting. Not oxidized, but just not good. Taste like a boozy mess.

Sweet, bitter, smooth vs the richness of 90. Maybe stonefruit. Happy New Year! 🥳🎉

(Extreme Beer Box) Citrus and caramel. Some dark fruit. Moderate bitter finish. The 17’ is surprisingly similar. Bitterness turning to astringency. The 16’ is almost a completely different beer. Sweet. Brown sugar and dried fruit. Moderately astringent

Bottled 09/13/19. Maybe needed to age more. A little bit more alcohol burn than some other vintages.
