I went in to this one in a very non-combative way. Pale Ale's are my favorite beer type so I am always eager to try a new one. This was my first foray into anything from Odell and this was a good intro. The color was semi transparent copper/amber and it poured about 3 fingers of head. Nice flavor of caramel, toasted malt, fair cream, and light nuts. Fairly complex, decently balanced and built. It was very wet and smooth but could have been a little more crisp. I don't much care for dry beers but this could have been a touch drier. I would definetley have it again, and certainly plan to.Monday, January 2, 2012
