120 minute IPA

You drank three 120 min IPAs? How many ounces were they? That stuff is like 20% alcohol, one 12 oz bottle of those is equivalent to 5 regular beers!! You must have been whacked! No wonder you had such a headache the next day! That stuff is like rocket fuel!

Also, 120 is not really a good beer to try if you have never had craft before. Have a 60 minute, that is a more normal beer and very good.

Correction, I talked to my buddy who was havin the gig. We drank the 60 minute IPA......and it really was nasty shit!

To each their own. I haven't been able to get a single friend into DFH or any other "not Bud Light" beer for a while now. They all look at me like I'm stupid for spending what I do on a few beers. "The cheap shit does the same thing, so why not just buy it?!" is what I hear more often than I would like to.

Thanks!! It has gotten a great reaction on BA and I have seen it on other web sites and people are tweeting it! My 15 minutes of fame !

I trade with a guy in San Diego, they have awesome beer out there. I love Alpine Pure Hoppiness and of course PTE! I haven't had Kern or Coronado though. Also, Ballast Point Sculpin is fantastic as well as Green Flash WC IPA and Hop Head Red. Alesmith is good too.

If you are someone who regularly drinks only Bud, Miller, or Coors products then an IPA is going to be a shock to your system. If you are new to ales, I would start out with a blonde ale first, then move up to a pale ale, then after you've begun to really like those, then you move to IPAs.

If you thought 60 minute was nasty you'll probably spat the Faithfull Ale across the room.

Get some good beer around 7% and tell them that the urine they're drinking is around 4.3% and see if they can do the math.

So people are getting all psyched up that this is going on sale tomorrow and it's only going on sale in TWO PLACES and IN PERSON? I read some posts yesterday and just assumed there was like an on-line sale starting Weds at 11 (I know, I'm not sure what I was thinking with beer being sold online).
So no one is really going to be able to find this, is what the website basically sounds like. They'd LIKE to sell it in the 27 states, but they probably won't. Can't wait to see what it goes for on ebay.

They said they start shipping to distributors tomorrow...and afer that it's out of there hands when it will actually show up. It'll be out there beyond two places...just not tomorrow.

Here's a pretty amusing pre-release review from an excellent beer blog from Portland:

This.

If the 60 Minute was "nasty", then IPA's are not for you. 60 Minute is TAME compared to a lot of IPAs.

this is definitely the truth. I regularly enjoy the 60, occassionally drink the 90 (on nights when I have time to take my time and enjoy the glass), and have had the 120... the 120 is a great drink.. when you can get it and have time to enjoy.


On a different note, I emailed DFH specifically about Texas and, for those interested, they have not received approval yet to sell the beverage in the state... so with the beer due to ship out today, I am highly doubtful I will get to try one... although I will check the main Spec's (about 2 miles from my house) Friday and Saturday to see if it does make it to Texas, despite this state's archaic beer laws....

Either way I'm going to crack open one of my Pumpkinators this weekend

bought the first two pints of faithfull ale now on to rehobeth to get two more. and to think, my wife didn't think it would be worth a day off from work and a six hour drive...
