Broodoo is a Seasonal Fall brew by the Three Floyds Brewing Company. It is categorized as an IPA, but it is not as hoppy as other IPA's. That is okay though since most Fall Seasonal IPA's tend to be not as hoppy. Broodoo does carry with it all the citrus aroma one would associate with an IPA. Overall, Three Floyds Broodoo is a beer you should check out before it goes away.

BEER REVIEW: GOOSE ISLAND IPA
Goose Island IPA is what beer should taste like: full of flavor, alcohol and hops. If you are not familiar with India Pale Ale's, the version made by Goose Island Brewery is a great place to start (just be careful, every future IPA will have a hard act to follow). The first thing you'll notice about the Goose Island IPA is the aroma. The pleasant aroma places you out in a lush green field on a beautiful spring day. After your first taste, the hop will kick in. IPA's are made with more hops because back in the sailing across the world days beer without hop wouldn't last the long voyages at sea. And since sailors wanted beer on their voyages back and forth from India, India Pale Ale was born. After the aroma and hops, what you have is one the freshest tasting beers you will ever have. Goose Island IPA is what light colored beers should taste like.
GOOSE ISLAND IPA is Highly Recommended by Gonzalo
