this is probably the 12th time i've talked about dfh 60,90,120 mins in this thread hahaha
90 min is indeed a superior brew. a smashing example of how hop-heavy west coast IPAs aren't the be-all-end-all of the style.
the 120 is nice too..for sipping..and getting way drunk. for being so heavy on the booze it doesn't have as big of an alcohol aftertaste as you'd expect which is wonderful
The 60min is a nice session beer, the 90min is great for two or three but it rather rapidly fights back! The 120min is a bit special to just drink for the hell of it. In fact this reminds me it's about time I cracked open one of the 4 pack of 120mins I bought from the brewery...every middle of October I should open one. I've got two left after this one.

Wow, I'd completely forgotten about that. Sometimes it's hard to believe I actually wrote that one!

Yeah, I'll say. I think was tipped me was the Left Hand Milk Stout. Now I can appreciate that fine, oaken flavour.
Storm King tastes just like a well-worn skating rink, only without the bathroom rape.

Pairs nicely with milk steak.
I also like the red velvet for your photo shoot.

i tip my hat to you, sir.
the first time i ever tried this beer was when i met a couple older dudes at a bar, some of whom were visiting from belgium as members of the 'belgian beer board' and embarking on a trip cross the west coast touring breweries. i had the foresight to bring them 2 bottles of pliny the elder. in exchange they gave me a westy 12 (fuck. yes.) and two belgian barley wines. anyway, an older american guy there (who turned out to own the homebrew shop i frequented) was sippin on an old raspy and told me 'my favorite beer. but i only drink it at the end of the night...cuz afterward i don't taste a thing'
lol
