“We are very excited to enter the Idaho market,” said Eric Smith, Director of Sales and Marketing for Odell Brewing. “There is an up-and-coming craft beer culture in the state, and we look forward to contributing to that enthusiasm with our unique offerings.”

Odell Brewing co-workers, including founder Doug Odell, will travel to Idaho beginning April 4th to celebrate the launch with a weeklong series of fun events throughout the state.
