Part of the Peter Straub Signature Brews Adventure Series #3. Odo Pilot Pils is an ode to St. Marys’ native Odo Valentine, who in 1939 flew his biplane perpendicular through a 64-foot-wide center section of the Kinzua Bridge which at the time was the highest and longest viaduct in the world, measuring 301 feet high and 2,053 feet long . Odo never told a soul. Fearful he’d lose his pilot’s license, he kept the secret — and an evidentiary picture — to himself for nearly 70 years. It is in the Fiercely Independent™ spirit of Odo’s feat that we name our classic pilsner. Cheers!

A: straw light gold with medium white bubbled head that leaves too quickly. Slightly hazy. Not aggressively carbonated. Head ends up a neat thin ring.
S: light lemony notes with strong grain presence.
T: light and bright lemongrass, grassy and very light graininess. Some of that Pilsner 'berriesque' undercurrent I always get from true Pilsners.
M: lighter medium. Lack of carbonation helps dense up the feel. Slick maltiness and clean finish with lingering graniness.
O: good example of the style, but I prefer the Straub Pilsner I had last year a touch more.
