Odell Brewing & Thornbridge Brewing have been working on a collaboration across the pond. Pond Hopper is the second collaboration Odell has done with the UK based brewery.
Doug Odell’s admiration for the British brewing culture has led him across the pond – a lot. In 2008, Doug landed at Thornbridge Brewery and in the company of kindred brewing spirits. This visit led to a collaboration brew at Thorniridge in 2010. Fast forward to 2012 to find the two breweries at it again, this time at OdeIl Brewing. Pond Hopper Double Extra Pale Ale is the love child of this international brewmance. Brewed with English malts and American hops, Pond Hopper brings together the best ingredients each country has to offer, balancing a subtle sweet malt character with hosts of mango and peach hop flavor. It pours a rich golden color with citrus and ripe melon essence in the nose. No matter which side of the pond you’re on, here’s to good beer and good friends. Cheers.

No need to change a great thing. Great Divide Brewing’s anniversary beer pleases even the pickiest of hop lovers. The beer doesn’t really change each year, but the subtle oak/wood nuances will a bit. 18th Anniversary is coming at you soon.
Based on our most award-winning beer, Denver Pale Ale, this copper-hued treat is a celebration of everything Great Divide does best. Plenty of malty sweetness provides a backdrop for earthy English and American hops, while French and American oak round off the edges and provide a touch of vanilla. Thanks to everyone who’s supported us for the last 18 years – here’s to 18 more!

Terrapin has begun shipping two seasonal beers this week – Hop Karma and Hopzilla.
This is Hopzilla’s second appearance, this time as a part of Terrapin’s Monster Beer Tour, in 12oz/4 packs. It’s full of citra and centennial hops for a citrusy/pineapple hop punch. Hopzilla! Doesn’t lay off when it comes to malt. 100% marris otter malt gives this hoppy reptile a honey like mouth feel. Hopzilla has body for sure!
Hop Karma was shifted to seasonal status starting this year. Steve Hayes describes this beer like this:
Hop Karma Brown IPA (or dark, hoppy goodness as I like to call it). You probably remember this beer, as it was once part of our year-round offerings, but it has now been moved into the Seasonal Sessions line because we simply couldn’t keep up with production all year long. The dark roasted, coffee-like flavors of the Chocolate, Crystal, and Dark Munich malts give way to piney and cirtus flavors from Spike’s combination of flavorful, American hops…yum
