Centennial IPA M

Smooth, dank old school IPA, quite gratifying in the air conditioning during the current heatwave.

Mortal Bloom M

A smooth drinking Hazy, a little too easy, sweetly dank tropical fruits and citrus, I am starting to relax after a long shift. Nice. 🫠🍻🌧️ (Canned On, 01/22/24)

4 Giants Starcatcher Haze M

A pretty smooth Hazy IPA, lightly dank sweet citrus, a little pineapple, orange, and grapefruity, finishes quite dry with a nice lingering, numbing citrus bitterness on my tongue. Whatever were my troubles today, they are presentingly forgotten. 🫠

4 Giants Hazy IPA M

Watching the planes fly over with our friends Kendall and Penny, relaxing in lawn chairs. I am told this is in the sales rack at Hy-Vee, $4.99 for a four pack, but I am too lazy to travel. 🫠🦥 (Canned On 05/30/23)

Citrus Squall M

Big tropical citrus aromas from the moment I popped the can open, both softly sour and tartly citrus sweet, grapefruit zest, pithy too, nice lime juice and peel tastes, finishes dry, and quite sweet. The ABV becomes slightly noticeable as it warms. 🫠🌧️

Mandarin & Mango Crush M

Tartly mandarin orange and mango juice, sweetly sour, dry and crisp, excellent Sunday brunch beer. 🫠🍳🥞

4 Giants Tropical Treasure M

(Canned On 03/31/23) Both lightly dank and gummy, a tasty tropical fruitiness, an underlying soft and creamy maltiness, finishes dry with a pleasantly mellow citrus pith and peel spiciness. Easily quaffable 🍍🤗

Dirty Bastard M

Smoky peat, caramelly, and fruity malts, creamy, a little boozy heat in the finish, dangerously quaffable.

Chocolate Cherry KBS M

Boozy dark chocolate cherries with an espresso on the side. Quite tasty. Early Valentine's gift from my beloved, etc...

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter M

Delicious aromas of caramel malts and barrel vanilla, fruity cherry, and a candied orange. Delectable tasting, bourbon caramel and vanilla, dried dates, dried cherries, a little orange peel and bitters, the ABV is noticeable, but only enhances the flavors

Mango Magnifico M

Aromas of sweet candied mangoes, a trace of citrus, and vanilla. A little habanero heat in the taste, but it is balanced and tamed by the sweetness of the mangoes. A delectable blend of sweet, juicy mangoes, and the heat of the habanero.

4 Giants Hazy IPA M

Slightly dank, citrusy tropical aromas, oranges, guava, mango, and grapefruit. Nice tropical dank tastes, same as the nose, oranges, etc... a hint of pine hop spiciness, mildly bitter in the finish. Quite nice, I like this a lot. Dangerously quaffable. 😋

90 Minute Imperial IPA M

Malty, piney, grassy, caramel, resinous pine, grassy kick, and hints of citrus, lives up to it's billing as a classic I/DIPA. The ABV is well concealed, making this dangerous drinkable over a week day lunch. 😳 🙃😵

Sun-Day-Feels M

Aromas of chalk and sour fruits. Tart tastes of orange peel, lime peel, and lemon. Maybe a little blood orange. Ok, but I am glad this was given to me by my old friend, Chris K.

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter M

A good nose of caramel and vanilla, hints of cherries. Tastes of cherries, orange peel, baseline caramel malts, and barrel vanilla. The ABV is only noticeable in the finish, a subtle heat. Quite tasty.

90 Minute Imperial IPA M

Old school I/DIPA, a classic. Rich in piney and citrus aromas and taste, with a good fruity, malty backbone. Boozy, but not alcoholic, I only notice a fruity, peppery heat in the finish. A classic.

Hazy-O! M

Aromas of sweet tropical fruits, I don't know, a piney pineapple, a good nose. Sweet and spicy, a tasty hazy IPA, juicy pineapple, a little orange, and a nice piney, sticky, spiciness in the creamy finish. The alcohol is well masked, highly drinkable.

Mas Agave Clasica: Lime M

Big hits of candied agave, limes, and a vanilla oaky that masks the alcohol. Sweet agave and sour limes tastes balanced each other out nicely Traces of mineral salt in the finish. I didn't think I would like this, but Founders proved me wrong.

4 Giants IPA M

Pours a filtered tarnish golden. Nose of pine and grass, traces of lemon citrus. Boozy, yes, the alcohol clings to oily pine, hiding it only a little, sour citrus, lemons in the aftertaste, hop spicy in the alcoholic finish, a lingering warmth. Ok DIPA.

Unraveled IPA M

Big floral citrus aromas, some grapefruit too. Grapefruit and sweet malts, with a light pine stickiness in the palate. Not bad, above average.

Centennial IPA M

Purchase out of the singles rack at HyVee grocery. Amber golden, and a tall foamy tan head. Very floral aromas, sweet citrus with traces of spicy alcohol. Sweet citrus, and caramel, pine stickiness, grassy bite in the creamy finish. I love Founders.

All Day IPA M

Floral citrus, pine and pepper on tongue, quite nice.
