Dogfish Head - 90 Minute

Esquire Magazine calls the 90 Minute I.I.PA., "perhaps the best I.P.A. in America." An Imperial I.P.A. brewed to be savored from a snifter. A big beer with a great malt backbone that stands up to the extreme hopping rate. This beer is an excellent candidate for use with Randall The Enamel Animal! 90 ibu

The ABV is 9.0 and the IBU rating is 90
Style - Imperial IPA
Glass to use- Pint Glass, Tumbler, Snifter, Tulip or Oversized Wine Glass
Delivery 12oz Bottle

Can be cellared for long periods, under the proper conditions.

The Pour - Pours a straw color with a big off-white head. Excellent lacing.
Aroma - Hoppy with fruity citrus-like hints.
Taste -  Sweet, malty, hoppy, some spices and citrus. 
Mouth Feel - Medium carbonation and big body.
Drinkable - Another great brew from DFH.  Nice warm burn from the alcohol. The hop taste is not overpowering at all.  Easy drinking but watch out for the alcohol.

This beer pairs well with cheese and meats.
