Description
Founded in 1989, Odell Brewing was started by Doug Odell, his wife Wynne, and his sister Corkie. Thirty years later, the culture of family and collaboration still thrives fostering a brewery full of beer-centric people. It is this passion for beer that inspires Odell Brewing to create quality, hand-crafted and innovative brews. Odell Brewing is committed to providing exceptional service to its customers while making positive contributions to their co-workers and community through its outreach and charitable giving programs. Odell Brewing was named the “Best Medium Sized Company to Work For” in Colorado in 2015, is the 34th largest craft brewery in the United States, and recently sold the majority of the company to its co-workers (now co-owners) in a combined management buyout and Employee Stock Ownership Program.

Aromas are slightly old resin hops with a little citrus. Flavors are a lot more citrus, more sweet than bitter with decent carbonation. Drinkable but nothing special at all.

12 oz. can from HEB in San Antonio. Pours a crystal clear deep bronze color with a khaki head and decent retention. Virtually no lacing. Sweet toffee aroma. Sweet caramel malt flavor with only a hint of bitterness in the finish. Reminds me of a bock beer. Smooth and clean, with very low carbonation. Almost flat. Medium-light body. I can't believe I've never had this before now, but I like it.

Sampling a 12 oz can this evening that was purchased at the craft beer store across town recently. I have my Cowtown snifter ready to catch the pour, a semi-opaque lemon yellow body with a heroic head of pillowy white foam. The scent is true to the style with pineapple, tropical fruit and white bread. The taste is pretty good, down the middle for me, some old school with the hazy influence dominating. Grapefruit, pineapple, malt, a bit of hoppiness making its presence known, orange rind and pine. A decent combination of sweet and bitter working together. An enjoyable IPA.

12oz can past the expiration date. Skunky, nasty green onion diesel. Not even drinkable, has aged terribly. Really bad.
