Game Day Beer Review: Odell Brewing Easy Street American Pale Wheat Ale



I drank this next beer while sitting at the bar at Pacifica in Aspen, Colorado.  Quite a spot, quite a town, and quite a beer....  I drank a bunch of beer while staying in Aspen on a recent vacation, and I have to say that Odell's beers were uniformly outstanding, truly the best of the bunch in a craft beer haven.

Beer: Easy Street American Pale Wheat Ale

Brewery: Odell Brewing Company

ABV: 4.8%

Color: Rich orange. Healthy white head.
Smell: Faint spiciness, citrus.
Mouthfeel / Taste: Lively carbonation, wheat flavors combined with a refined orange sweetness.

Overall: A great thirst quenching beer.  Highly sessionable: A

Beer: Odell Brewing 90 Shilling Scottish Ale

ABV:  5.50%

Appearance: Amber, with minimal head and decent carbonation.

Smell: Some citrus overtones, with herbal hops and malt.

Taste: Sweet malt is nicely balanced with a touch of hop, mild bitterness to finish.

Overall: I'm not a huge fan of Scottish ales, but this is a fine offering from this excellent Colorado brewery. I will have this again: A.
