Odell Brewing Company - St. Lupulin Extra Pale Ale
Beer Type: American Pale Ale - 6.50% ABV
Appearance: 12 brown bottle with a classy Odell-style label of a saint of hops/grain printed on it. Beer poured a hazy-straw yellow color with a thin head that faded quickly.
Smell: Bit of piney hops and bready malts. Not too sweet smelling. Pretty mellow aromas.
First Drink: Bitter up front followed by a nice sweet orange malt flavor with a bitter hop finish. Yum!
Mouthfeel: Medium body but nice and smooth going down.
Last Drink: The sweetness is coming out more now with a flavor that is a bit like honey. Also getting more of the hops bitters throughout.
Drinkability: Pretty darn interesting flavors for a pale ale!
Notes: I have been a fan of the Odell beers for awhile now and this one does not disappoint. Pretty sure this is a seasonal brew.
Verdict: 4.25 out of 5. Good flavors and easy going down. What more could you want out of a session beer?
