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.

Can.

A- Yellow color, clear liquid, white head.

A- Corn, grains, subtle lemon.

F- Corn, lemon, faint sweetness.

T- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish.

O- My first Brewver rating now that I have finally been able to upload all my RateBeer ratings (RIP). Exciting new era! Solid pils. Lots of lemon and maybe not as crisp as I'd like the finish but good.

Does not taste like a West Coast IPA or West Coast Double IPA.

bottle from Mondiale ’07.
dark ruby color, thin beige head, good lacing. Very nice malty aroma, and also hoppy aroma. Flavour is incredibly balanced. This isn’t spectacular, but a perfect session beer!

Can thanks to allmyvinyl.
Appearance - cloudy yellow with a quickly disappearing white head.
Nose - even on opening, the passionfruit was jumping out. Then, more subtle fruit like melon and orange.
Taste - this time pineapple and passion fruit. Still orange juice at the back.
Palate - light bodied, fresh finish, if not particularly tart.
Overall - enjoyable to drink, the base beer doesn't seem to be sour, mind.

Aroma has notes of dark bread, chocolate, Whoppers, caramel, vanilla, nuts. Taste has a lovely roasty malt sweetness backed by light to moderate hop bitterness. An excellent unadulterated straight stout. A rarity these days.
