look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 5

Poured out of a 355ml bottle into a tulip glass.

Appearance: dark golden, almost copper in colour with a thin, bubbly white head. Sticky lacing speckles the glass after the first few sips. Lots of active carbonation.

Smell: ridiculously fresh hops impart a light and fruity citrus aroma.

Taste: toasty and biscuity pale malts, lemon, citrus, and a dry, piney hop bitterness in the aftertaste. Good nutty flavours with a bit of sweetness as well.

Mouthfeel: crisp and smooth upfront, tangy and oily body with a drying finish.

Overall: Dogfish Head has done an excellent job of distinguishing this IPA from others. The pronounced bitterness, beautiful biscuit/hop symmetry, and distinct citric finish make this an ideal session beer. At $14.95 a six pack, I'm glad I got my money's worth.

Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA has a thick, creamy, slightly off-white head, and a clear, fairly bubbly, golden appearance, with substantial lacing left behind. The aroma is of sweet, sugary medium-roasted barley malt, with a faint presence of hop oil. Taste is of those things, plus the beer has a strong, yet not harsh, hop bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium and soft, and Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA finishes dry, refreshing, and easy drinking. Overall, I prefer a harsher hop attack, but this beer is still most excellent.
