Odell The Myrcenary
"Named for Myrcene, a component of the essential oils in the hop flower, Myrcenary Double IPA is our 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."
Clear, golden-hued, under a beautiful, cloudish cap of snowy white foam, lace-leaving and long-lasting.An excellent appearance for a double IPA.
Aroma: prickly pine, citrus and tropical fruit, slightly honeyish. Pungent and floral, indeed. Excellent aromatics.
Tasting it: Easy entry on the palate, with hops bitterness quickly catching up and taking over the tongue. Tickles and prickles, sends tendrils of sensations up, down, and out of the mouth. Tiniest spark of sweetness, barely perceptible, flanked at all sides by tasty, tasty blasts of hoppitude.
Oily is right, this one has all the essentials, in good supply. Medium bodied, long, bitter finish, and utterly delightful for a hophead like me. Yeah, these guys know how to do it, and they do it, how they do it. Mmm, mmm, mmm.
Just perfect.
