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.

On tap at the Thirsty Growler. Clear, orange amber, flimsy head. Mellow herbal hops, caramel nose. Honey nut Cheerios. Semi-sweet leaning off-dry feels with a honey drizzle, slight herbaceous hops, a twinge of unintentional vanilla, nice middling acid, pecan & puff pastry. Caramel full finish. Crispy carb, low abv, just enough body. Drinks easy.

Aromas are what you'd expect from the label on the can: lambic cherry and raspberry backed up with hints of oak. Flavors are similar to nose, medium tartness and fairly dry. Good body and carbonation. Almost seems like there's some salt in there. Decent for this type of beer which is not really my cup of tea. I prefer more balanced.

12oz can. A decent enough new school fruit beer. Hardly sour, just a touch...fades into a smooth finish. Blackberry tone is mild, puree feel. Drinkable, not a lot going on.

12 oz can from a friend. The pour is a hazy orange with a well formed one inch white head that is quite lasting. The aroma is juicy apricot and tangerine fruit along with a bit of juicy fruit gum. The taste is more tropical fruit, pineapple and orange, touch of the bitterness of orange peel, and some of the more synthetic fruit stripe gum to the finish. The palate is light bodied, active carbonation and an unfiltered mouth feel. Solid.

12 oz can from a friend. The pour is a slightly aged golden orange with a foamy one inch white head that coats the glass nicely. The aroma is dank tangerine and clementine citrus, along with a nice cereal malt freshness. The taste is mostly the bright citrus hop notes, with the dankness of the nose showing more as a soft resin, finished with tangerine fruit sweetness. The palate is medium bodied, soft natural carbonation and a clean fruit soft resin finish. Tasty.

Pint at the brewery. Straw color, with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The nose is hay, mild tomato, juniper, celery, jalapeño, and lime. Sweet and malty, with a mild, grassy bitterness. Light body, crisp, and a bit hot. Fair.

Half-pour at the brewery. Pours a hazy, yellow color, with a smaller, frothy, white head. The nose is orange peel, peach, grass clippings, and coriander. Sweet and citrusy, with a mellow, sticky bitterness. Medium body, crisp, and biting. Easy and quality.
