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.

Just my favorite big IPA right now. It’s got the perfect sweetness and bitterness balance for me.

Very close between 3.75 and 4. The bitterness still lingers on my tongue a couple minutes after finishing which is a nice change of pace. Had this one at the brewery a few years ago so I'm curious to see what's in the spreadsheet.

This is a hop bomb! Explosive bitterness balanced by a super malt backbone. Very tasty

A nice change of pace. Amster rating:”you have to get apples in this right? How does the label not say that this has apple juice in it? I still don’t like it though. “
