268. Odd Side Ales (Grand Haven, MI) - Mosaic Dank Juice

“100% Mosaic hopped juicy IPA. Aromas of tangerine, grapefruit, and berries give way to a smooth beer with citrus flavors with a hint of pine.”

That’s the description on the website. What the can says is, “Double dry hopped with Mosaic® hops to create a slightly hazy beer rich in juicy tropical notes and aromas.” The latter description is correct. I let the first one warm up a tad, and the first sip had a little bit of tart to it; but the tropical flavor came through loud and clear. It’s too sharp to qualify as smooth, but there are a lot of lovely things going on here.

251. Odd Side Ales (Grand Haven, MI) - The Original Dank Juice

“Double dry hopped with Citra® and Amarillo® hops to create a slightly hazy beer rich in juicy tropical notes and aromas.”

Opens with an almost sour shot, but warms up into a soft pineapple flavor with just a hint of a dry finish. I think I dig it, but I’m feeling sort of pissy today—so I might be wrong.

238. Odd Side Ales (Grand Haven, MI) - Citra Pale Ale

“A single hop pale ale brewed exclusively with Citra hops. The aroma is an intoxicating bouquet of grapefruit, tropical fruit, lemon, and pine.”

Nice balance of flavors, and just a hint of caramel malt at the end. Creeps up on me a little bit, in a way that I sort of enjoy.
