#237 Dogfish Head - 60 Minute IPA

Another Dogfish Head in the numbered minute series.

The aroma has a citrus hops characteristic commonly associated with American grown hops. The color is a dark straw with a hint of orange, and very clear, could tell this was a clear beer while it was still int he bottle. The head is thick with good retention.

There is a lot of hop flavors in this beer. There is some citrus taste like a grapefruit and plenty of bitterness. A slight buttery diacetyl taste is present leaving the roof of the mouth slick. The mouthfeel is thin. The finish is bitter with some diacetyl taste.

This might be the first Dogfish Head beer I don't like. The diacetyl is too strong and mixes poorly with the hops. I really liked the 90 minute and 120 minute IPA, but this one is not as good.
