Few entities have been as metal as Mad Magazine, which started with the notion that most people are insane and in denial, which makes for absurd comedy as humanity collides with reality. Although this came about seventeen years before Black Sabbath, it shared a sensibility.

Famous for its bitter hipster IPAs, Karbach Brewing Company attempts something slightly different with this beer, a wheat and barley based adjunct beer that like Modelo Especial, delivers a thin but pleasant taste, although in this case, without undo sweetness, fermentation artifacts, or bitterness.

We try to review only the relevant around here and dismiss the bad with short reviews, but this may be the worst beer I have ever tasted. Short review: bitter IPA with pineapple and soap flavors and undertones of perfume that makes this more vomitous than the cheapest Pabst clone.

Upon first taste, 1980s Michelob; middle-taste is a little bit sweeter; finishing taste has more citrus and a fizzy, spicy lingering hybrid of aroma and flavor. This beer goes down easy because nothing in its taste profile conflicts with the rest of its flavor edifice.

Presenting the richer side of IPAs, this double IPA has a slightly burnt flavor and intense bitterness but ultimately goes too far into an unbalanced sourness, missing that sweet spot where IPAs still taste like beer just without the soda pop and rotting squash flavors normal to American beer.

If you like the regular “Hopadillo,” a beer with a stupid name but maximum flavor, you may appreciate the Imperial IPA, which is a drier version of the regular Hopadillo with intense levels of alcohol that may have you punching out windshields like a Florida Man.
