    Struggled to spell this properly after having a bottle or two.

    Revisiting this brew for the first time in a while (it's hard to obtain in the UK)

    It's one of the few American DIPA's we can get over here but it seems pretty damn good to me.

    Any other fans out there?

    the fact you can get it in UK is quite awesome since it is only sold in 11 states across the pond. I enjoyed the Pond Hopper by Odell as well. What were your thoughts on that collaboration @London_Gent ?

    One of the best year round DIPAs for the price if you ask me. Fantastic!

    I really like it, too. Odell makes great stuff and I always pick it up when fresh.Do you have access to Founders? Come July, keep an eye out for Double Trouble :slight_smile: I bet you'll like it since you like Myrcenary (both heavily use the amarilllo hop), DT is just a little more dank, piney, and sour from the Simcoe (IMO)

    Big Odell fan, but they don't really get out to CA.

    Luckily was in Denver this past week, though, and tried out a bunch of their offerings (including Myrcenary). All great choices.

    Bizarrely I have never sampled this, Thornbridge make some decent beers however (Not as good as Odell IMHO...)

    i agree Gentlemen, let's not forget I am drinking a bottle which has a date of 02/14 and cost me the equivalent of $10..... Still a great beer though.

    I think Myrcenary holds up pretty well too.

    Still, I always feel I have to mention that the freshest IPA/IIPA almost always tastes best to me, and the most aromatic and flavorful. So much so, that for the most part I don't have my heart set on picking up any particular IPA. I was in the mood to pick up Founders Centennial IPA yesterday, checked the date, "4/14/14". I then looked at another centennial hop-forward IPA I enjoy, Bell's Two Hearted Ale, which had a date of 5/20". It was a no brainer, I grabbed the Two Hearted.

    The Founders Centennial would have been fine, but the Two Hearted is great. Hoppy stuff is incredible the first few weeks.

    Yessir! Got this beer form a pal in wyoming and I am a fan. In fact Odell seems to me , as someone who only sees them from the sidelines , to be one helluva brewer with a downright exciting lineup and plenty to offer in the way of styles.

    Love me some Myrcenary. Just got to try St. Lupulin last week and really enjoyed it, reminded me of a smaller version of Myrcenary. Their Double Pilsner was great too. Wish they sold their stuff out here.

    While living in Santa Fe, NM, Myrcenary was an absolute staple in the 'fridge. Being stationed back on the East Coast, this is easily one of the beers I miss the most.
