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.

First imperial IPA I've had from Founders. Not hazy so not so heavy as many, but sure is good on the ABV.

Very well-rounded imperial IPA, good hop presence and a bit of malty sweetness on the finish

Piney and citrusy with a nice malt backing. Nicely balanced and better than most Founders IPAs

Seems like an improvement over last year’s. Not that it was too shabby then.

Pours amber with slight head,smells of line and alcohol, tastes of hops and heavy malt, mouthfeel is smooth and lightly carbonated, finishes with an alcohol bite but not too bad, a classic DIPA, good not great

I like it. Been looking for a boozy, malty, not hazy IPA. That being said, that pretty much sums up the description of this beer. Boozy, malty. Nothing complex.
