Poured a dark golden color with an inch white head. The Aroma is sweet, citrus with a strong hoppy overtone. The taste is hoppy, but not overly hopped. It has a slightly bitter finish, but it is well balanced. All and all not a bad IPA.

Nov 30, 2008 It was $12 for a 6-pack, but well worth it! The 471 IPA is exactly what I want out of a double IPA. Beautiful copper color with great clarity and a good head. The aroma is bright and hoppy, kind of spicy. The taste is very balanced, with lots of hops up front to give it a great flavor. You can hardly tell that it’s 9.2% abv, which makes it a dangerous beer.

Nov 20, 2008 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!

Nov 17, 2008 clear amber color, medium white head, nice lacing, an attractive beer. minor citrus aroma. the citric hop bitterness is more apparent in the flavor, with caramel and floral notes. medium bodied, nicely bitter finish that lingers. a respectable entry in my favorite style of beer. my notes say that t his beer should be ’’in the lower 15 percentile of my ratings’’. i have no idea what that means.
