Commercial Description:
Hoppy? Brother, 471 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. (Available at Breckenridge Pubs and Restaurants and bottled as 471 Small Batch Double Hopped IPA.)

Extremely sweet aroma for an IPA. Wonderful taste, not too bitter as many IPAs are. Kind of a creamy citrus taste.

12 oz bottle. Lots of sweet vanilla and citrus hops. Flavor was a bit more grassy, and the mouthfeel was pretty big. More citrus and pine of the finish. Pretty good.

The first thing I notice is the very prevalent creamy orange/citrus aroma. I almost thought I was about to drink OJ. Slightly cloudy amber in appearance. From the description, I thought it would be too hoppy for my taste but to my suprise it’s milder and more easy drinking than I anticipated. A nice IPA but nothing too outstanding.

Hazy orange colour with an off white head. Hoppy fruity and light piney aroma with some grassy and caramel sweet notes. Hoppy, fruity and piney bitter flavor with a sweet note and hints of flower.

Smaller Head. Not very hazy. Very hoppy. Very drinkable strong IPA. Not too overpowering. Really like the after taste. I would buy this one again. Stronger to me then the Steelhead Double IPA

Pours a big off white head, and it smells great. Nice dark orange in color,smells of citrus! If you’ve ever taken a bite of an orange ,or grape fruit this is very similar. Nice long hoppy flavor with a finish that lasts forever. This is a big people drink!

Nice snappy Double IPA with a kick. Very drinkable . Citrusy nose with the obvious fresh hops mixer. The tongue is wonderfully bitter. The plus is the sweet malt that keeps the hops pleasantly up front but not oppressive. Great beer.
