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.

Enjoyed it - smooth for a double with a very long finish.

Hoppy, malty, then a boozy finish. Very nice.

Swert malty nose is followed by a sweet malty body. Heavy pine and heavy sweetness balance each other out, with a pine bite on the front, and then heavy bitterness on the long finish.

Lil bit tired. Brown. Is it oxidized? Big body, some bozze, could use more hop bite.

Only giant I recognized is DT. Who be the other 3? Aromas are citrusy & tropical with underlying dankness & pine. Taste is very green, lots of grapefruit, green onion, passion fruit, orange & pine. Very big and burly Imperial IPA.

When you want an IPA after a good day of accomplishing long awaited tasks... make it a great one. Especially rewarding for making “the phone call” of the day.

Citrus and floral notes in aroma. Grapefruit and pine along with malt sweetness up front. Finishes with bitterness and more citrus. Late checkin.

Can’t really blame the date since it’s a triple (3/10) but this tastes way more boozy than I thought
