MateVesa Brewing - Yerba Mate IPA


First there was the coffee stout and/or porter. Now MateVesa Brewing made a yerba mate IPA. What the fuck is next? A crack cocaine malt liquor? This is getting a little crazy. I know that yerba mate is all the rage nowadays with unhappy hipsters and I guess its transition into beer was only natural, but come on! It is even labeled organic! The 'fad' quotient on this is though the fucking roof. As far as beer goes, however, I thought this was pretty darn good and the price was right. I didn't taste any yerba mate, which is good because that stuff tastes like shit, and I also didn't feel any of the caffeine. But seriously, who takes uppers with their downers? Junkies, that's who. This crap is like the speedball of beers. But since it was not terrible I give it a 3.5 out of 5. Drink it.

That's funny. Can't wait for Jolt Cola to start brewing beers!
