4 Giants IPA

IPA - Imperial / Double

We’ve made a lot of imperial IPAs over the years and, in turn, have had a lot of arguments over which one is the absolute best. So, to settle this once and for all, our brewers mashed up four of our favorite recipes into the ultimate imperial IPA. 4 Giants boasts aggressive bitterness balanced by a malty, sweet backbone while huge aromatics come courtesy of the seven American hop varieties.

Piney and hoppy. Not much floral or citrus. Good but more of an old school DIPA.

Great hop forward IPA... wish I could try any one of the four beers this was based upon... balanced yet bitter... pine on the nose with some floral and citrus hops... head fades quickly but laces all day...

Really balanced, with a malty color and hint of flavor. Big at 9.1 abv, but not that alcohol finish.

Telling my wife about Machuchu Day on Untappd where you post a photo wearing underwear on your head. She told me to put Spanx on my head because—wait for it—I’m a fathead! So, I took this picture! (Took it from Google.) Beer is very bitter and good!
