    I had some "Raging ****" when I was back in MD last October, but after a few I kept on calling it "Crazy ****". Good beer. Looking forward to moving back and drinking more.

    Most beers by flying dog are good with one exception.....pearl necklace oyster stout just didn't do it for me.

    I like all of theirs except the Heffewisen.... I generally don't like that style. Love the IPA's and stouts. Steadman is an awesome illustrator.

    If you're in the MD region definitely take a tour of the facility. It's pretty awesome and the tasting isn't wimpy IMO.

    Excellent IPA , I enjoy it from time to time. Right now I'm hooked on 60 minute IPA from Dogfish head.

    They have a 61 min IPA and a 90 min IPA that are pretty darn good! I want to try their 120 min IPA but form what I hear you can only get that in MD.

    I'm not sure how far their distribution reaches for 120 but I found in in Chicago last year. I beleive its limited because of the abv.

    World Wide Stout is a great beer but strong as hell!

    Agreed. They have some good events there as well. Last time I went, which was a few years ago, they had some Maryland chili cook off there. Free samples, cheap fresh craft beer, some live music, good times.

    The 120 might be my favorite beer. Its kind of rare and will cost about $16 clams a 4-pack but can definitely be found outside of Mary's Land. The kicker with that beer is, every batch can vary from 17% ABV to 20% if I'm not mistaken. Its a silent killer!

    I believe that was intended for women. Thats probably why you didn't like it.

    The 120 is not a beer anymore it's hard liquor IMO. I didn't like it. The 61 I have had and it's pretty damn good. The 90 is also nice but I prefer the 60 overall.

    I missed this thread first time around, but I love that Belgian IPA. Found it in a local store over the winter and was hooked on it for awhile.
