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.)

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!

Clear coppery color, good head and retention. Aroma is has strong citrus notes, and some light piney notes. Very plentifully hopped. I love this beer.

Pours syrupy amber with a medium off white head that laces well. Nose is strong floral and grapefruit hops. Flavor has initial sweet malty notes that trend later towards nicely bitter, mostly citrus hops. Finish is pine hops and nicely alcoholic. Very good,Awsome!

Grrrrrrrrrrreat! Grapefruity goodness that packs a 9.2% punch that is so well disguised you will have a stupid-fun time letting it pummel you for a few rounds of pints.

Loved this IPA, very rich taste with a thick white head. Can, unfortunately, no longer find in Texas.

Bottle from Capone’s. Hazy dark straw pour with 2-finger creamy white head. Aroma of big caramel malt, with heavy tropical and citrus fruit, including mango, tangerine, honeydew, heavy hops, and a lot of cracked black pepper. The flavor is rich caramel malt with the variety of tropical fruits, mango in front and tangeriny melon toward the back, plus a uniform spreading of black pepper throughout. The mouthfeel is complex, well balanced, and velvety. This beer is the younger brother of Dreadnaught, and I’d bet they have about 80% homology between them.
