12 fl oz pull-tab can:

I do not see a canned on/best before date on the label. 7.2% ABV. "100% Colorado malt." "100% Colorado yeast." "Hops from Colorado and beyond.""Hazy India Pale Ale."

Has an Odwalla juice tropical fruit vibe that mutes any concomitant hop bitterness to its detriment. Wheat. 2-row/pale malt. Papaya.

Hop profile is rather subdued and muted...this never lets its hops land on the palate with impact. Very restrained to the point that it doesn't feel like it's committing to its hop varietals. I don't dislike it but it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of hop pungency and depth of hop flavour. This has less hop punch than something like Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale.

Drinkable albeit forgettable. Amongst Odd 13's worst work.

C / AVERAGE

05/02/20 can:

"Locally sourced hazy India Pale Ale." From their website:"Locally Sourced Hazy IPA w/ Troubadour Malts. Hopped with Cascade and Galaxy."

Muted citrus. Fruit juice. Subdued passionfruit.

Lacks the floral hop flavours you'd expect in a great Cascade hopped IPA, as well as its subtle hop oils. Galaxy is more at the fore here, to its detriment - not that it brings the bold passionfruit the Australian hop is known for to any impressive extent. Peach? Don't find it. Citrus? Sure, but it's shallow.

It's balanced but lacks the hop pungency and depth of hop flavour any great IPA needs.

Howdy Partner! This odd hazy IPA from Odd 13 is made with local ingredients, and thankfully no lactose. Phew!

Odd 13's can art always has a bit of an uncanny element to it, but I find this one more disturbing than usual (in a good way). Pours with a big three-finger layer of fluffy eggshell white foam that stays for days. Eventually it dies down to a thin film, leaving lots of lacing like a range of snowy mountain peaks across the nonic pint glass.

Super juicy aromas of papaya, orange, durian, mango, blueberry and strawberry. Hints of herbal hemp danknesss and an undertone of licorice root spice on the finish.

So dank. The hemp is even more prominent here, along with a note of planty loroco bitterness that makes me inclined to ding it a few points. Durian is in there too, and the mango. Berry undertones on the tail end, and that astringent spicy sweetness of licorice root makes for a strong but interesting finish.

Pretty good feel too, fluffy and frothy from not being filtered, but with a nice dryness that keeps it from being too rich (albeit, barely).

A nice strong brew to wet the palate after a long day out riding. Yee-haw!

12 oz. Can
Canned On: 12/18/19

2 Weeks on this can.

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy yellow/orange color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, guave, apricot), pretty nice little diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, guave, apricot), pretty nice little diesel like. Medium body, ABV is hidden pretty well, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty brew, glad to see it around here. Orange Julius! MilkShake! Addictive!

Suppper smoooth
Pours thick yellow haze. Smells great and tastes amazing.
Was luck enough to get my friends to ship me some out to Boston.
Odd13 really hit the nail on the coffin with this one.
More enjoyable than alot of TH and trillium beers I get.
