Funky Buddha – Hop Stimulator Double IPA Bottles

8.5 / 10

Please welcome to the arena our newest year round contestant in Funky Buddha’s lineup, Hop Stimulator! This beer is dank as fuck and they really had no problem hopping the shit out of this which I am all for as long as it was consensual and of age. Funky Buddha kicks so much ass that they sent me two bottles of this to dissect and if you think for one second that I am only reviewing this good because they sent it, think again mother fuckers because I can’t be bought like some sleazy politician. I actually always dread reviewing free beers because I feel bad for about half a second if it sucks but this beer kicks some serious ass. This is my first and certainly not last beer from these guys because they’ve made such a good initial impression that I definitely need to take them out on another date. A strong tropical hop flavor bursts in your mouth to start like Ron Jeremy after a week without sex before some more oniony and pine hop bitterness joins in intensifying even more with a nice caramel malt sweetness mixing in slightly with more floral hops to finish. Basically, the artwork on the bottle nailed it because this beer transforms and turns into the Incredible Hop and sucker punches you right in your dirty little whore-ish mouth but luckily this brew doesn’t need a lame pair of purple ripped shorts to be bad ass. This is a great pickup for the bastards of the world and anyone who is in a really great relationship thanks to their Plenty Of Hops app and as for the newcomers to the style, this might be a bit much for those sensitive taste buds but after a few easier brews you’ll be ready to take on this monster. Cheers!
