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.

Bit of a yikes on this one. Haven’t had an IPA in months, so maybe that’s my issue. At least it’s strong and a little sweet. Lots of hops. It actually has some bourbon flavor

Hoppy citrusy aroma, slightly hazy gold color, nice white head, juicy citrusy malt flavor with some medium sweetness, medium creaminess and very low hop astringency. Medium mouthfeel, great beer

Very reminiscent of the classic American Strong Ales like Stone Arrogant Bastard and Oskar Blues G'Knight.

A full day of socializing and slat-eclipsing .. time for soaking, and sipping “4 Giants And The Haze Of Destiny” imperial double hazy IPA from Founders Brewing, Grand Rapids, Michigan. BIG fan of Founders’ dark brews … liking this one, too. Salud! 🍺
