12oz canned 7-25-25, opened 9-12-25.
2 finger white head with excellent retention and full lacing. Yellow-gold and clean body.
Orange, ripe citrus peel, lime, some tropical aromas and flavors...also a faint leafy aroma and minty flavor late.
Bright entry, light body, and appropriate carbonation. Moderate, persistent bitterness with a lengthy finish.
Very Good.

Clear light gold pour, strong foamy head. Nose shows pine tar.

Taste is bitter resin, earthy, light kilned malt, lemon peel. Mouthfeel is firmly medium. Finish shows strong lasting resiny bitterness.

Appearance: Pours a completely clear, light golden color with a massive white head that lingers. SRM of 6-7. (4.25)

Aroma: Strong aromas of orange, tangerine, resinous peach, stonefruit and pine. Caramel underneath. (4.00)

Flavor: Strong flavors of orange, tangerine, some peach. Resinous pine and stone fruit linger with some caramel malt sweetness. (4.00)

Feel: Medium-body, strong carbonation. Yeasty, malty, yet moderately bitter finish. (4.25)

Overall: First try at this American IPA from Odell. They usually make some really good stuff sort of on the brink of West-Coast IPAs. This has a lot of orange, tangerine, peach, yet also some pine bitterness. Malty, yet bitterness to balance. A really nice blend of American and West-Coast style, sort of how Colorado blends the West and the Midwest. Fantastic American IPA here. (Rating: 4.04+)

Around a medium body and around the same for the carbonation.
Aroma is malt, bitter hops,earthy and floral.
Taste is similar to aroma yet the bitterness is slightly subdued which to me actually allows other flavors to shine and makes it more flavorful

Poured from a 12oz can

The look is a light amber to gold, with a very light haze, almost crystal clear. On the pour there was a nice 2 finger head which slowly dissapates into a medium thin cap that leaves lacing. Good looking

Smell is resinous and piney with a hint of grapefruit. Not a lot of beer smell it's largely covered by the hops but some malt sweetness gets through. Its a very nice smell, definitely an ipa.

Taste is a bit different than the smell but it's very similar. Bitterness right up front. And malt residing solidly at the back. As the beer warms the citruis grows, and it becomes very grapefruit like, but still not juicy, very resinous. If I was more into hops I'd say it's a good refreshing ipa.

Feel is relatively light, but still present enough in the mouth to bring it to just the right balance of creamy lightness to keep it refreshing but full flavored and solid at the same time. A crafty afternoon work beer, but big enough to make itself known.

Overall am ipa right in the middle of the road but still somehow making its point without compromise. West coast with a splash of juice keeping it bitter, but not too strong and good for almost any time but especially as a refresher.

Pours a translucent gold. Piney nose. Strong notes of pine and maybe pineapple? Lacking the hop bite I was hoping for. Canned 12/3/21.
