Loaded with our unique blend of açai, guava, and elderberry, and balanced with a delicate addition of Himalayan pink sea salt, this beer pops with a bright ruby color and a refreshing tart finish.

Slightly murky purplish pink color with a modest but lasting off white head.
The aroma is quava and biscuity malt with hints of berry.
The taste is pretty much the same but the acai and elderberry are more evident. Mildly tart, very slightly sweet, no real bitterness.
The body is light/medium, moderate carbonation, smooth and easily drinkable.
Altogether, this a fairly tasty brew, decently refreshing, a little more tartness could enhance that a bit but basically a decent summer cooler, best drunk cold.

My first sour so really don't know what I'm basing this off. I found this underwhelming in that I definitely prefer something more hoppy.

It’s fine but it isn’t beer. Lots of floral and no taste of alcohol. Actually not that sour at all. Maybe some cherry notes as well. Lemon as well.

12oz can pours a very hazy orangish-pink color reminiscent of grapefruit. Small fizz of white head that disappears Smells of very light and juicy fruit notes. The taste is very juicy and with a combination of berry, citrus, and tropical fruit flavors. Slight tartness and a hint of salt with a small sweetness and a tart aftertaste. Light-to medium body with moderate carbonation mouthfeel for a refreshing finish.
This was a pretty solid sour. Would drink again but wouldn't go out of my way to buy it.

Sippin’ Pretty pours a darker, clean copper color with a hint of pink and a very small head. The aroma is filled with notes of flowers. The flavor is very light and sprite, with hints of flowers, salt, and sweetness. It is light but refreshing, feels fizzy, with works well. Overall, a lighter, fizzy sour beer with many spring notes.

Can from Whole Foods. Murky, pink pour, foamy head fades to nothing. Aroma brings tropical fruit, guava. Taste is more fruit, hint of salt towards the back. More tart than sour,but much better than I expected.

19.2oz can best by last September it looks like, damn
On the pour a very solid, fine, bone white, 4 finger head forms in my nonic pint on top of a body that looks exactly like grapefruit juice. Lacing doesn't form but head retention is good for a sour.
Aroma is... questionable. An almost meaty character works its way through the very fruit forward juicy thing ot has going on. I thought it smelled like cat piss, but my friend said it smells more like canned cad food.
Taste is fine, not as offensive as the aroma, a tropical almost guava fruit and a slight tartness come through. It's about as tart as a bit too much lemon in your water. A decent biscuity pale malt comes through on the back.
Feel is drinkable, but the aroma really takes away from the experience and how I feel while drinking this beer. It's light and semi crisp, but I feel like I have to chug it like a malt liquor which is honestly disappointing especially considering the fact "sippin'" is in the name.
Overall I'm disappointed. I like O'Dell and respect that they are still independent, and I thought I'd give this a shot since sours are alright, and O'Dell is alright, but I should've gone with my gut. I felt like this was a cash grab because it is. It tried to capitalize on the mini-craze around sours, and it worked, but it's bpretty easy to see what it is.

Really inoffensive, not a lot of flavor here. I taste a little bit of biscuit or cracker with fruit and floral flavors. Little bit sour but not nearly as much as some other varieties. Very drinkable but that's mostly because it lacks in intensity.
