Beers similar to Idiot

Coronado Brewing Company

Double IPA·United States·8.5% ABV·One of 366 Double IPAs in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Idiot's hoppy and bitter character. Idiot IPA is a strong West Coast-style double IPA built on a large hop charge of Nugget with Cascade, Centennial, Chinook and Columbus. Tropical fruit and grapefruit sit over a clean, lightly toasted malt base, while pine, resin and herbal notes come through as the beer warms. It is unfiltered and pours a hazy golden orange. The alcohol is noticeable but not hot, and a firm, persistent bitterness carries through a dry finish.
