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.

Dont know if I have drank it too warm but this is hell of a punch in a face with whole piney forest. Booziness is quite bold follows with sweet maltiness in the backbone.

Caramel-sweet malty, piney, semi-bitter. Nice for this style of IPA.

Strong, and incredibly malty for an IPA. Slightly spicy but very drinkable. Good stuff!

A strong, full flavored Imperial India Pale Ale. 9.8% ABV which is strong for an IPA. Very hoppy and fruity. Founders Brewing Company has only made beers that I've enjoyed.

Classic IPA with good caramelly malt base and piney citrusy grapefruit bitterness 🍻✌️

You still taste a strong Imperial, yet this is a unique I've never quite tasted before, with sweetness and a mixture that tastes like Imperial IPA mixed with a Belgian Ale.

Puolimakea karamellinen mallas, havua ja pihkaa reippaasti, sitrusta on toki, hieman öljymäinen suutuntuma, sitrus menee hieman greippisempään suuntaan, alkoholi lämmittää vaan ei pistä. 3kk tölkityksestä, hieno olut. Juotavuus oikein hyvä. Vanhaa liittoa

When you’re only having one - make it last. Unbelievably balanced and smooth - be careful 🤣

Qua smaaksensatie een erg ingetogen Imp IPA. Eigenlijk geen sensatie. Maar wel een goede, zijdezachte, kenmerkende, amberkleurige en volle US IPA. Licht prijsje bovendien, super.
