Haven't had it yet, its cooling off in the fridge.
90 Minute IPA. I've heard good things as well about the Loose Cannon, so I picked it up. The Abt 12 I'm excited about. Based on the best beer in the world which is made by monks. I picked up the Hoppsecutioner after seeing Erik post it.
Had the Smashed Pumpkin and the Wayerbacher Imperial Pumpkin over the weekend (and 3 litres of Hacker Oktoberfest).
The Wayerbacher has a much spicier finish to it than the Smashed Pumpkin, which had a bit of an alcohol finish. The Wayerbacher had a lot more time to cool down tho, so I'll have to get more Smashed Pumpkin and try again, haha. Both are definitely drinkable.
As for the Burton Baton, I would say its about the same heaviness as the Dogfish 90 minute elambz just picked up. I don't find it to be too bitter, but I'm probably not a good judge because I like bitter beer.
For you Dogfish fans, check out the documentary "Beer Wars" on Netflix streaming. They're one of the featured breweries. Pretty decent movie - it was interesting to learn about the "three tier" strategy and how it's basically only good for the big guys.
I've had beer at VIR, Summit Point, CMP, Roebling, Road Atlanta, BeaveRun, Gingerman, MAM, Lowe's Motor Speedway...

That is an excellent movie. I found it on netflix and absolutely loved it.
Last night was a night for beer.....
Had Boulder Mojo IPA, Reissdorf Kolsch, Starr Hill Love, and an ACME IPA. Also had a few beer shots, one which was mojo topped with belhaven- hoppy but creamy.
