Odell Amuste: A Fusion of Beer & Wine

The brewing talent at Odell Brewing (Fort Collins, CO) are working on fusing the beer & wine world with Amuste, a porter. The dark brew has not only grape juice in the brewing process, but is also aged in wine barrels.

Must is to wine as wort is to beer; the primordial ooze, the source and foundation, that feeds the process of fermentation we all love so much. Amuste is the culmination of a two year endeavor to marry these two fuels into the same fire. An imperial porter aged in oak wine barrels accented with juice from Tempranillo  grapes grown on the western slope of Colorado, this harmonic combination is truly, a must. 

Style: Imperial Porter (w/ Grape Juice, Wine Barrel Aged)
Availability: 750 ml bottles
Arrival: TBA
