Year of New Beer: 471 IPA, Breckenridge Brewery (CO)

Written By: Dion on 10/01/2012

Tons of fruit on the nose-orange, grapefruit, and pineapple. The fruits come forward in the taste, and are joined by a fairly significant layer of caramel malt. The hops here provide some nice bitterness, but aren't nearly as harsh as some double IPA's. Some barleywine qualities. Overall a pretty good beer.
