Description
Odyssey is a small family run brewery established in the rural surrounds of a National Trust estate in Herefordshire in 2014. We brew in a building that is at least 400 years old but our beers are modern and forward looking.

Because we are small, independent and committed to staying that way, we focus primarily on only two styles of beer - hop forward (of any colour) and big, indulgent stouts, with the occasional Barley Wine thrown in for good measure. Our hoppy beers are unfined and hazy but we seek to retain some bitterness and drinkability - East Coast brews with a West Coast vibe.

All of our beer is produced for keg or can.

Hazy amber, bitter citrus aroma. Malt, grapefruit, hop and a slightly sour tangy aftertaste. Could go it a bit cooler but it’s nice.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy bronze body with a thin white head that fades. Lively fizz. Very faint lacing. Aroma of orange pith, hay and menthol. Flavour of clementine, minerals, grape skin and pear drops. Thin body with an oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. Surprisingly thin, and lacks the expected hop punch.
