Any Dogfish Head fans?

**xXClockwork** · 03-16-2012, 07:42 PM

This is probably my favorite brewery of the moment. I have tried the 60 and 90 min IPA's, the Raison D'Etre, Indian Brown Ale, Palo Santo, Chicory Stout and Aprihop. Been looking around for the chance to try more, but it seems to be hit and miss. Any other big fans?

been a while,, i dont even remember which one i drank, but i liked it alright.

Yep, Chicory Stout and Indian Brown were the last two I had from Dogfish. Good beers.

There might be one or two of us, lol.

I'm a big fan of the 60 and 90 minute IPAs and the Indian Brown Ale. I tried the Raison D'Etre a while back and it was not to my liking, but those other three are among my favorite beers.

Dogfish 60min is one of my favorite beers

I enjoy the 90, but don't pick it up all that often. The 120 was too heavy/malty for my taste (but true to the style -- just a personal preference thing). What's neat about DFH is the projects they'll try -- Theobroma, etc. Some unique brewing styles and adjuncts to try, so I enjoy looking through the DFH bombers available at the better local beer shops.

I find most of them too weird for my taste. Shame. They, along with Magic Hat, are capable of producing some remarkable blends, but usually let me down.

They do produce some fun brews that I can see why they aren't for everyone. I have fallen on the other side of the coin. They keep my palate interested for sure.

Some are real good, some are real......ly ODD. But my God they are so expensive.

I'd rather drink my home made beer, much less expensive and I know I'll like what I'm pulling off the tap.

Some of them are pretty expensive, but they have a few 6 packs that are in the $10 range, which is in line with many other 6 packs that aren't Bud (at least in my area). I've always been a drink what you know kind of guy which usually means a stout or porter with an occasional IPA, but I've been trying to branch out from the same flavor profile over and over in the past 6 months or so and have really enjoyed the Dogfish line so far.

90 min is fantastic. Check out the New limited release of 75 Min...Its a big boy bottle and is delicious!

I wish I could haha. I can't seem to find any of them except the staples + seasonal.

**jeff2011** · 03-17-2012, 05:36 PM

I'm pro--have some raison de etre in the fridge that I don't really like that much tho.....had a 22 oz Two Brothers Circus Penguin last week (or two)--blood oranges and beets, yummy. So many craft brewers are making so much good beer: Two Brothers, Half Acre, Three Floyds, Dogfish Head, Lagunitas, Stone Brewing, Schalfly...etc.....and now I amn thirsty.

**Almightys** · 03-17-2012, 05:42 PM

I have only had the punkin chunkin seasonal and loved it!

**Dude123** · 03-17-2012, 07:55 PM

Love the 60 minute, maybe my favourite beer. Sadly, the province run liquor sellers stopped carrying it, and for now have no other dogfish products. Very disappointing. I gotta make a trip across the boarder for some others. Anybody know how easy it is to find dogfish stuff in New York State, especially Buffalo or any other cross boarder towns?

**Jeomphroy** · 03-17-2012, 08:00 PM

60 min and 90 min are amazing, bu the really excel at their seasonal or limited releases. If your a fan of 90 min, squall will be amamazing. I have not heard of the 75 min, but will have to find some. I think they grew too fast to support the business, that is why they had to withdraw from 4 states and are hard to find in the current states they distribute to

**Bigsurprise** · 03-17-2012, 08:58 PM

I have only had the 90 min. and I like it. Have you guys noticed how similar it is to Red Tail Ale? It is one of my all time faves.

**Bertilak** · 03-18-2012, 03:48 PM

60 and 90 are great. These are real hoppy. I have a friend from Germany who simply doesn't bother with American beer. He had second when I served him Dogfish Head 60 (or 90, I forget).

Those are my favorites by far. The 60 is cheaper so that's what I buy whenever I buy it.

**bkfist** · 03-18-2012, 04:19 PM

90 is my favorite "commercially available" brew. Unfortunately you can't get it in Iowa (Iowa has *very* messed up liquor distribution system - All retailers have to order through the state-run distribution channel, and they don't pay their bills on a timely basis - sometimes 60 to 90 days out, therefore many smaller breweries can't afford to stock up the state for 3 months waiting on payment...) Only the 60 minute is available here and to me, the 60 minute IPA tastes like a batch of home-brew done by a newbie on their first batch of beer, from a kit.

I have never been able to find the 120, but would like to try it.
