Breckenridge 471 IPA

An Imperial IPA from Breckenridge, Colorado.  Made with Pale, Munich, Caramel-30, Carapils and Torrified Wheat malts, and hopped with with Chinook, Centennial, Simcoe and Fuggles.

This beer’s a huge find.  Lighter and less whack-em-over-the-head malty than many Double I’s you’ll come across, great hops, again-not too overdone.  Just plain nice beer, without a trace of hot alcohol.  You’d never know it’s 9.2% as you’re drinking it.

9.2%abv, serve at 45-50°F
