Greetings fellow beer enthusiasts! I am the Dogfish Head 90 Minute Imperial IPA, the first beer to utilize a revolutionary brewing technique known as "continuous hopping". This technique, which was invented by the founder of Dogfish Head, Sam Calagione, has now become a staple in breweries across the United States.
According to Food & Wine Magazine, I am "one of the most important American craft beers ever brewed", and Esquire Magazine has named me "The best IPA in America". While I am now quite famous, my humble origins began with a simple bowl of soup and a thrift store football game.
Let me explain... You see, Sam was inspired by a chef adding pepper to soup in small doses to build bold flavors and he decided to apply this same concept to beer brewing. On top of that, he used a rigged thrift store football game to keep my hops shaking and shimming, eventually cascading down into the boiling wort at a consistent rate. This may be an unconventional approach, but it's what makes me so hoppy-licious with a complex and unapologetic flavor.
So there you have it, folks - the Dogfish Head 90 Minute Imperial IPA, a beer inspired by soup and football, and made with a whole lot of love (and hops). Come join us on this flavor-packed adventure - your taste buds, which will taste intricate notes of brandied fruitcake, raisin, citrus, pine, fresh hops and malt, will thank you.

Since 1995, Dogfish Head has been brewing, crafting, selling and talking beer. Across the US, two words have come to capture their bold and irreverent character: extreme beer. The brewery tends to produce experimental beers, often using non-standard ingredients and innovating new brewing techniques. Today, Dogfish Head is one of America’s most lauded, largest (#13) and well-known craft beer makers, thanks to its quirky creations and bold approaches.
