Tasting Notes and Review of Odell Brewing Company's Isolation Ale

The Bottom Line

This is a really good beer. The nose and flavor is packed with great hops quality. The malt side, however was a little disappointing for a winter seasonal when one expects big, bold, malty beers.

Pros

  • Wonderful Fresh Hops Quality

Cons

  • Malty Side Is a Little Simple

Description

  • Fresh Hops Throughout
  • Very Good But Not Your Typical Winter Seasonal
  • 6.1% ABV

Guide Review - Tasting Notes and Review of Odell Brewing Company's Isolation Ale

The head of Isolation Ale is dense and white. Its body is clear dark copper. The aroma is bursting with floral and spicy hops and malt. The hops steal the show in the taste where the spicy and floral trend continues. There is a malty sweetness balanced against average bitterness.
