    We don't get Odell's here in KY, but how can I not appreciate something that makes so many of my fellow BAs happy?:slight_smile:

    My wife brought some Odell stuff back from a trip to Colorado, it was just their regular offerings but they were all solid. I sure wouldn't mind if they got distributed in VA.

    I bet Odell would love it if you called it by it's correct name. It's not Odell's.

    It's their regular everyday drinking options that make me such a fan. Their big bottle, single serve series are good but its the regular lineup, with the seasonals included in that, that ranks them so high on my list.

    Oh crap, next time I make it to "Odell Brewing Company" I hope they don't tell me that they don't serve my kind because I referenced us as Odell's on BA.

    Per the about page on their website,"Odell's was just the second microbrewery to open in Colorado." You better tell the Odell bros they've got it wrong on their site. We wouldn't want to confuse anyone.

    I trade for their stuff pretty regularly, even just the off-the-shelf selections. In fact, I have some Shenanigans and double pils on the way now!

    I wouldn't mind if they started distributing to CA.

    I really enjoy most of Odell's lineup but am not a big fan of the more limited releases...I can't get into the flavor profile of their wild ales.

    The IPA and Myrcenary often make me wonder why I bother hunting down other IPAs though...

    In. The IPA and Myrcenary are outstanding, and the Red and Lupulin are fantastic as well.

    Had the IPA - fantastic. Better than the majority of the "me too" IPA's here in San Diego.

    Revisiting.

    Since the start of this thread, I have moved up to Fort Collins (for grad school) and now have access to all their pilot beers as well. Got to say, I only love Odell more now. So many of their pilot beers are so much better than much of what is actually on the shelves right now, IMO.

    They are supposed to be expanding distro to Texas this year according to an email response I got. I've been lucky enough to try a couple bottles of Myrcenary and their IPA but can't wait to see it on shelves at my local store. A fantastic brewery that doesn't get enough love IMO...

    I have to drive an hour for Odell products, but it's well worth the drive. My bro-in-law in Denver just put Myrcenary in his kegerator. That is so not fair.

    I also love Odell, I'm in southern Cali right now and have to have it shipped to me. All their beer seems so well done and worth the cost.

    Another Odell fan here. Can't get it in Southern California, but I always bring some back when I visit family in Albuquerque.

    For all the stout lovers who overlooked odell because they were glaringly missing stouts need to check out their new lugene chocolate milk stout. Such a great brew, I think its on par with everything else they have out right now.
