    Heard this weekend that one 12oz bottle of that is like 600 calories :grimacing:

    Not that I'm counting calories while drinking beers but that is a bit high for me to have too many.

    I would doubt those numbers. Dark Lord is in the 800 range for a 22oz. I haven't had Lugene yet but I would doubt it is at a higher final gravity than Dark Lord.

    Yeah, it seemed pretty high to me and I have no knowledge of the actual number. It is a very tasty beer though.

    Friek is one of the best beers in America and their Woodcut series is tremendous as well.

    I drank my only bottle of Saboteur a few weeks ago. Very tasty, wish they'd make more.

    Odell has it listed at @ 250. That means you can drink at least two. :rolling_eyes:

    Odell IPA is very underrated in my opinion, probably one of the best IPAs I've had.

    Just found a bottle of saboteur in San Diego, somehow. Pretty stoked. A good buddy of mine went to CSU, so I've been enjoying Odell before I knew what good beer was. Loved having access to them when I lived in CO.

    Been a long time BA but just now made it across the country and have been loving the O'Dell's I have gotten to try. Wish I had tried the IPA sooner. I'm on the west coast for about four more months and I'll definitely been picking up more of their stuff.

    I love O'Dells beers. Just picked up a couple of fresh Myrcenary 4 packs to enjoy this weekend. IMO a great brewery that puts out pretty solid stuff. And a plus 1 to the above comment about Lupulin. Spot on beer.

    I've said it before, but they have the best artwork in craft beer. Love the embossed bottles too.

    So solid - consistently tasty and balanced offerings. The thing that gets me is how many different styles they do well - which brewery does it better? Founders, maybe?

    Not sure why but Saboteur remains my favorite of their Cellar Reserve releases that I have tried. The Meddler once it got some age on it is a very close second, but Saboteur remains my favorite. I remember last GABF there was a sudden re-emergence of it on the local shelves and I never grabbed a bottle, it still stings thinking about the poor decision I made there.

    Got some Deconstruction last weekend along with one of those new variety packs.
    Always solid stuff.

    Had a little taste of the meddler at FWIBF and it was one of my highlights from the day. Willing to give any Odell special release a shot at this point!
