Commercial Description:
Odyssey is an Imperial, or Double, IPA brewed with an assortment of hop varieties, and lots of them! Near orange in color, Odyssey is medium-bodied and (obviously) hoppy, with pleasant alcohol hints in the nose and finish.

22oz bottle from the Phoenixville Brewery. Big, long-lasting head on top of golden-hued brew. Lots of carbonation in this one. Aroma is all hops, piney, some hints of citrus. Light/medium body. Lots of hop flavor, good bitterness. Pretty great.

<b>In short: </b>A generic American IIPA. Very drinkable like all other generic American IIPAs<br /> <b>How: </b>Bottle 22oz, drank fresh a few days after purchase<br /> <b>The look: </b>Cloudy orange body topped by an off-white ring of foam<br /> <b>In long: </b>Malt backbone is nothing special with sugary caramel. Hop flavours is 2/3 pine-cone and 1/3 citrus fruits. Gets more and more resinous and coniferous as it warms up. Bitterness is mild. Not very tasty. An overall feeling of a tired beer although I purchased it only a few days before at Oak Tree, store with a good turn around. A decent beer but lacking some character. Stays on the beaten path well within the limit of the style, Sly Fox Walk Around The Block.

22 oz. bottle - Pours a clear golden color with a medium size off white head. Nice layered lacing. Aroma and flavor is floral & citrus hops and toasted malt. Medium body. A good beer.

22 oz. bottle. Light orange pour. Medium sized, light white head. Good amount of lacing. Big aroma of citrus hops. Flavor seems to have faded a bit, as the caramel malt hits you first. Hops are still there, but have started to drop out. Piney, spicy flavor that lasts quite some time on the tongue and roof of the mouth. Not enough of the sweet balance I tend to look for in a DIPA, but still a nice beer.

Pours clear copper-orange, light white head with some retention. Slightly herbal aroma also has caramel and floral notes. Flavor is sweet malt with a big hop spiciness that lingers for a long, peppery finish. Warm, rich body with good carbo. Certainly a fine DIPA if not necessarily my favorite of the lot.
