Odell
There are TEN states that make up what we call our ‘distribution footprint.’
Each state made a unique contribution to FOOTPRINT. This artful ale is our tribute to these states in which our beer is available. The result is a crafty collective of regional flavors:
Colorado - Hops & Barley, Arizona - Prickly Pear, Idaho - Barley & Hops, Kansas - Wheat, Minnesota - Wild Rice, Missouri - Oak Barrels, Nebraska - Corn, New Mexico – Green Chilis, South Dakota – Barley & Honey, Wyoming - Wheat
Our brewer’s created an unpretentious, yet sophisticated brown ale. Then they plotted, and dosed this full-bodied ale with brettanomyces, the ultimate adversary of wineries. Embracing this vintner’s nemesis resulted
in a complex and wonderfully drinkable beer. Intense earthy undertones, and notes of vanilla and pineapple come together with a sour silhouette. Aged in American oak barrels.
The Rocky Mountain Goat is no ordinary goat. Just like Odell Red is no ordinary red. We took the American style red to a whole new level by adding a variety of aggressive American hops giving this ale a distinctive fresh hop aroma and flavor. We think you’ll agree this red has some serious kick.
Mountain Standard, Double Black IPA, features the homegrown hops our Brewers helped pick from farms along Colorado’s western slope. MST pours committingly dark with a light tan head and a slightly roasted hoppy nose. An ephemeral bitterness, the result of combining roasted malts with an assertive American hop profile, contributes to MST’s act of balance and harmony. As the season’s darkness sets in, why shouldn’t your beer become darker too?
Named for Myrcene, a component of essential oils in the hop flower, Myrcenary Double IPA is a tribute to those who revere the illustrious hop, and their unyielding exploit to craft hop forward beers. Brewed with a blend of hops containing the highest levels of Myrcene, this double IPA prevails with a tropical fruit-like flavor, a pungent floral aroma, and a clean getaway.
Not quite a stout but definitely no lightweight, Cutthroat Porter is smooth and robust. Inspired by the classic London porters, dark roasted malts were used to create a deep, rich color and flavor that hint at chocolate and coffee. Odell named it Cutthroat Porter as their tribute to the Colorado state fish - with its own rich heritage and unmistakable dark coloring. And while they're big fans of small batches, here's to the currently threatened Cutthroat population reaching mass quantities.
They took the traditional IPA, originally shipped from England to India in the 1700’s, and made it bolder and more flavorful – American Style. Odell
Brewing added new varieties of highly aromatic American hops to create a distinctive bitterness profile and an incredible hop character.
Odell introduced 90 Shilling, their flagship beer, at their opening party in 1989. For a while, they’d been wondering what would happen if they lightened up
the traditional Scottish ale? The result is an irresistibly smooth and delicious medium-bodied amber ale. The name 90 Shilling comes from the Scottish method of taxing beer. Only the highest quality beers were taxed 90 Shillings. A shilling was a British coin used from 1549 to 1982. We think you’ll find this original ale brilliantly refreshing, and worth every shilling.
The distinctive hop character of Odell Brewing's 5 Barrel Pale Ale is due to the extraction of essential oils from select hops. They treat 5 Barrel Pale Ale to an infusion of fresh whole hop flowers in the Hop Back and the Fermentor, as well as four hop additions during the kettle boil. They like how this gives the beer a fresh, lively flavor and aroma.
