A mystical legend echoes in our brewhouse – that of St. Lupulin (loop-you-lin) the archetypal hophead. He devoted endless summers to endless rows of hops, tending to the flowers and the beloved resin within – lupulin. Extraordinary oils in this yellow resin provide this dry-hopped extra pale ale with an undeniably pleasing floral aroma and clean, crisp finish. One sip of this seasonal summer ale and you too, will believe. From the Odell's website
Now I'm not sure what is "extra" about it, but boy, was it good. It poured a clear golden color, with a bright white head. Obvious hops taste and aroma, but not at all bitter. As the glass attained room temperature, the maltiness started to come out. Some subtle floral aromas, a tad bit of lemon, even some honey. Even with the additional ABV (6%) this would make a great brew to have several of. Can't go wrong with Odell's.
