Odell India Barleywine
From Odell Brewing – Part double IPA and part malty sweet barleywine, India Barleywine is a unique and complex beer. Copious amounts of malts and hops intertwine giving the beer exceptional flavor and aroma. When enjoyed fresh, India Barleywine delivers a bright hop character, and when cellared, flavors of dried fruit emerge.
Odell Brewing – India Barleywine – 750 ml bottle poured into a goblet. 9.7% abv.
Appearance: Pours a vibrant, slightly cloudy fire orange with a sudsy cream colored head.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Big grapefruit notes, that can be smelled from a good 2 feet away. Also some caramel and rock sugar in there as well.
Taste: Bitter, earthy hops, a mixture of sweet and dry malts, a little bit of citrus, and finishes with a nice dark chocolate note.
Mouthfeel: Very thin for a barleywine or a Double IPA. Slightly sticky.
Overall: Very complex and flavorful. I enjoy the hop aroma and flavor as well as the yummy malt offering in this beer.
