Odell Brewing Co. Kindling
This Blonde Ale from Odell Brewing Co. pours a brilliant golden hue, offering a sensory invitation defined by its approachable malt-forward character. The aroma is highlighted by bright fruity esters of peach, apricot, and crisp apple, layered over a foundation of clean, grainy malt. On the palate, a soft bready sweetness balances subtle hints of citrus hop notes, reminiscent of fresh zest. Effervescent and refreshing, it finishes medium-dry with a clean fermentation profile that keeps the focus on its delicate fruit and malt interplay. It is a quintessential easy-drinking ale that balances complexity with high drinkability and a crisp, clean profile.
