12 Beers: Odell Brewing Isolation Ale

Odell Brewing Isolation Ale


Aroma:
I got faint notes of spice, malt, and yeast although none were very pronounced.

Appearance:
Poured a rich translucent brown with a thick cream colored head and a minor amount of lacing.

Taste:
Subtle malt and yeast flavors with an odd underlying bitter and sweet notes that come and go.

Overall:
Although I quite enjoy many of Odell Brewing's other beers, I felt the Isolation Ale was less than average.  There were aromas and flavors that were so faint I found myself thinking too much trying to determine what they were instead of enjoying the beer.
