my god, they're everywhere

Due to recent events, I couldn't let Idiot IPA pass by.  In spite of the name, its own label describes it as a "intelligent brew", possibly referring to the sharpness of the taste.  Five types of hops are used in its brewing, promising a complex blend of flavors.  The label advertises "tropical fruit".  We'll see about that.

The beer comes out a lovely golden color and gives off that typical citrusy IPA scent.  The head is white and foamy, although quick to fade.  The taste does not disappoint, if you're looking for a strong craft IPA flavor; the bitter rushes in with a tail end of sweetness, but it's mostly the bitter part that you'll remember.  It has a powerful, mouth-filling feel, relaxing and refreshing.  It's undeniably a craft IPA, and a good beer for the warm evenings that we're seeing now.  While I can't identify much fruit beyond citrus, it's still a pleasant beer to sharpen one's wits with, or at least one's tongue.
