It’s taken years, but we’ve tweaked this legendary Imperial IPA to perfection. Flavors of pine and citrus rind rush to greet the palate and are balanced by a biscuit-like malt backbone. A bevy of Bravo, Cascade, Centennial, Chinook, and Citra hops combine to make Odyssey a hop lover’s dream!

650ml bottle. Clear orangey golden colour with average firm frothy to creamy white head. Sweet caramel malty basis with a honey touch is complemented by a hop note too decent to withstand. Taste is more hop accentuated, initially well balanced with the sweet malt basis, pleasantly supplemented by a citrus note later; hoppy finish gets a bit too bitter in the end. Nice IIPA with deficiencies concerning balance.

Hopfiger, dunkel würziger Beginn. Im Mittelteil kommt zu diesem ausgewogenen Geschmack eine deutliche Süße hinzu, die von den gleichzeitig auftretenden hellen Malznoten kommt. Hopfig-herb, die Bitterkeit wird lange versteckt bevor sie dann zuletzt hinter grasigen Noten erscheint und den Abgang bestimmt. Intensiv hopfiges, in Teilen zu süßes IIPA. 11/12/12/11/12/12

Not the best Imperial / Double IPA I’ve ever had, although this is an old rating so I hope I once get to re-taste and re-rate it. Old notes say that it was hoppy but not that much and carbo and body were a little disappointing. Still nice though, but not as good as I generally think of beers in this style.
