Breckenridge - 471 Small Batch


This is a beer I hope to emulate.
Why?
Because it's unique, hoppy, malty, sweet, balanced, and packs a real punch.


Their1 description
Hoppy? Brother, 471 IPA redefines hoppy.471 is a small batch, limited edition ale that was created by our Brewmaster to separate the weak from the strong. 471 is a double IPA, that combines Pale, Munich, Caramel-30, Carapils and Torrified Wheat malts, with Chinook, Centennial, Simcoe and Fuggles hops. It has a big sweet mouthfeel, followed by more hoppiness than you've ever had at one time. Enjoy.
