Review
Overall Score: 6.5
Dream Crushers deserves the name with 100 IBU and 9.5% ABV, but the appearance doesn’t match. The palate follows the look instead of the stats as the hops are moderate along with the flavors. There’s a hint of malt liquor, which comes with the higher ABV and intense malts. It’s an above average IPA and an average DIPA. We recommend it without hesitation, but it won’t be a common purchase.
Degenerate Discussion
Dream Crusher sounds like a beer targeting Degenerates; however, it’s a solid DIPA and not an exceptional one. We enjoyed it, but this beer wouldn’t be your ‘bottom bitch’ if you were pimping in 70’s. Dream Crusher would be in the middle of the prostitute hierarchy. This is another nod to how much society has changed in 50 years, even though the media continues to tell us we’re living in the dark ages (fear makes money). This is why we chose the alcohol industry; to keep things fun and light. Cheers Degenerates!
