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.

Malty, boozy, tons of pine and old school DIPA bitterness and citrus. A nice callback to the days of my craft beer youth.

Nice throwback to the bitter IPA days. Pretty resinous/piney with a pronounced malty sweetness. Just not my jam these days.

Not bad. Kinda “thick” for an IPA. Not a bad choice when there isn’t anything else to choose from 😂

Syrup amber initial, bitter after taste. Masks the alcohol content well

Haven't had a Founders beer in forever. The national craft breweries must be struggling with the advent of local craft breweries. A toast to a pretty good brewery. 🍻

Big hop bitterness! A bit of apple up front. Finishes astringent and with alcoholic heat. Maybe not to everyone's taste, but I like it a lot. NOT sessionable.

Fantastic IPA, wouldn’t believe the 80 IBU’s if I was you... bitterness is minimum and very well balanced. This one is a creeper.
