#8 Black 60 Minute IPA

Second full brew (all brewers present). The recipe was based on Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA made black with Carafa II. More hops added than recipe called for. Hop plugs added. -Aaron

This beer was brewed on one of the hottest days of the year, July 4. It was the first beer that was continously hopped throughout the 1-hour boil. I was not expecting such a hoppy taste from this dark beer, but this is my favorite so far. -Jeff

"I want to freeze it in the winter and skate on it and then melt it in the springtime and drink it!!" This beer seem sto keep getting better with age. -Dane
