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.

An assertive, west coast style DIPA. It's got great color, malty body, and a strong flavor.

Large IPA. Pretty well balanced, but still a little boozy.

Dessert and a beer. I’m enjoying this one more now than I did when I first had it. I remember it being more thicker like a syrup I guess the pallet has changed.

Sweet but with enough bitterness to offset it..better than most Doubles.

Na het eten rondje dorp Oirschot. Eerst een ijsje bij de dames 🍦 daarna bezoekje aan d'STomerij voor een speciaal biertje. Deze staat nog niet op de kaart. Fijn bittertje in de keel. Droog. Harsachtig. Ook mooi alcoholisch. Prima!

Fris hoppig bitter. Net een ietsje moutig. Citrus. Wat droog. Klein beetje hars. Top ipa wat mij betreft.

An absolutely brutal day calls for some high ABV. Throw in the fact that my favorite therapist is on vacation and it may just call for 2. 🐆

For a IPA there is no hoppy flavor but a strong burnt ale flavor. The nose is roasted maltiness and the back end has some malt to it as well. If your like burnt heavy pale ale flavor you’ll like this. Hardly no hoppiness for a IPA.

Seymour Beers

9.2% Imperial IPA brewed with 7 American Hop Varieties Almost West Coast, certainly has the ABV, but not really bitter and not at all piney. Very smooth but you know you really have something in your glass!
