This year, the brewery will host the event in its newly finished West side parking and lawn areas, and will feature over 25 different beers.

American Craft Beer Week is May 16-22nd, 2011. Special events are going on from coast to coast. Something interesting coming out of Ft. Collins, Colorado – a collaboration. Nine breweries local to the Ft. Collins area are coming together to create a “super” collaboration in honor of the week.
C.B. Potts, Coopersmith’s, Crooked Stave, Equinox, Fort Collins Brewing, Funkwerks, New Belgium, Odell Brewing, Pateros Creek are involved with the recipe creation.
“American Craft Beer Week (ACBW) is all about recognizing and celebrating craft brewers and craft beer culture,” said Doug Odell, founder of Odell Brewing Company. “This collaboration lets us do that and have fun making something special for the craft beer drinkers in our hometown community.”
There will be 2 simultaneous brews on April 22nd at Coopersmith & Equinox. The beers will be blended together, and be poured at the breweries and throughout the city.
On October 24, Odell Brewing gets Friek-y. Friek returns! Its a framboise/kriek sour beer, that just took home gold at GABF this year.
“I think this beer best represents our collaborative culture,” said Brendan McGivney, head of production at Odell Brewing. “I cannot think of a beer that had as many hands involved in the process as this one from raspberry picking and cherry squishing to yeast and bug propagation, barrel handling, and 750 ml bottling.”
Friek is aged in oak barrels with Colorado cherries, AND Fort Collins raspberries. Then there’s the wild yeasts – lactobacillus and pediococcus to funk things up even more.
Expect it in 750ml corked & caged bottles. In Odell’s 10 state distribution network. There’s a “FRIEK OUT” party at the tap room on 10/29. Be a friek, celebrate a gold medal, and get a mouthful of sour. [PressRelease]

Savoring Woodcut No. 5 Odell Brewing to release newest Woodcut offering at SAVOR
Fort Collins, CO. — On June 3, 2011, Odell Brewing will debut Woodcut No. 5, an oak aged Belgian Quadruple, at SAVOR: An American Craft Beer and Food Experience in Washington D.C. Woodcut No 5 will be the second offering Odell Brewing has released at the event, which is now in its fourth year.
“Every Woodcut offering is uniquely aged in the luxury of brand new toasted oak,” said Brent Cordle, who manages the barrel aging program at Odell Brewing. “The toasted oak and vanilla, along with the Belgian banana and clove flavors, will pair well at the esteemed SAVOR event, an event only fit for a beer like Woodcut No. 5.”
A Quadruple Ale brewed with a blend of Belgian ale yeast and our house ale yeast, Woodcut No. 5 presents a rich, spicy dried fruit essence and a deep auburn color. Vanilla from the New American Oak complements the Special B malt with hints of cherry, raisin and plum on the palate. SAVOR chefs will pair the beer with “Biscuit n’ Belly,” a braised pork belly on a buttermilk biscuit with mustard greens. According to the chefs, “the bitter mustard greens tame the big quad with the smokey middle transforming the pork belly into a more bacon like state.”
Odell Brewing will also mark the release of Woodcut No. 5 with a celebration in the brewery’s Tap Room from 4-6 p.m. on June 4, 2011. To commemorate the release, limited edition, signed and numbered woodcut prints by local artist Chris Bates will be available for purchase.

Hiveranno, The New American Wild Ale Odell Brewing releases new brew during American Craft Beer Week
Fort Collins, CO. — On May 21, 2011, Odell Brewing will release Hiveranno, the latest in its Single Serve series of offerings. A New American Wild ale, Hiveranno blends a traditional wild ale with bright American hop aromatics and soft oak tannins.
The Hiveranno was a seasoned Mountain Man, one who had lived many years off the land pioneering new ways to survive by exploiting available resources. Like the Hiveranno, our adventurous brewers drew on their knowledge of classic wild Belgian yeasts, and they captured and propagated their very own strain of wild yeast from the brewery grounds. This proprietary wild yeast, unique to the brewery, lends a slightly tart funkiness that is enhanced by the barrel aging process.
“The beer was blended with select barrels from our wood cellar,” said Eli Kolodny, brewery QA/QC analyst. “These barrels have a unique in-house lineage that adds a subtle melon and grapefruit rind tartness to balance out the big aroma hops in the beer. Aging the beer will bring out more oak and wild yeast characteristics, while drinking fresh will allow the hops to shine.”
Odell Brewing will celebrate the release of Hiveranno in the brewery’s Tap Room on Saturday, May 21st during American Craft Beer Week. Beginning at 4:00 p.m., guests can enjoy samples of the beer as well as live music by Constitution.
