It's time for another beer review! Today, I'm reviewing a Swedish beer from Omnipollo. The beer is called Nebuchadnezzar and the style is an IPA - Imperial / Double. Omnipollo has a very good reputation, and they have had a lot of success, so I'm really looking forward to trying this beer!
The brewery was founded as a collaboration between brewer Henok Fentie and the designer Karl Grandin in 2011. Omnipollo is a so-called phantom brewery, which means that the brewmaster makes the beer recipe and then goes to other breweries to produce the beer on a larger scale.
The brewery has won several awards: their double-IPA, Nebuchadnezzar won the award for best beer of the year at the Stockholm Beer & Whiskey Festival in 2012 and in 2013 they snatched a gold medal for the beer called Maz.
The brewery's name Omnipollo comes from the words "Omnipotent" and the Spanish word for chicken "Pollo".
Appearance: hazy orange-golden color with a medium white head.
Smell: citrus, orange, grapefruit, and traces of caramel.
Mouthfeel: medium body, medium carbonation.
Taste: citrus, grapefruit and orange mostly, with underlying malt notes, long lasting bitter aftertaste.
Omnipollo delivers once again! Full of flavors and even if it's a strong beer you can't taste the alcohol. I'm starting to wonder, do they have any bad beers? Almost all their beers have a really high rating at untappd.com.
Very artistic design on the bottle once again, and as I wrote in one of my earlier reviews: no surprise since one of the founders is a designer!
The only negative thing about Omnipollo's beers is that they are quite expensive. But if you want quality, you've gotta pay for it right? I will give it a rating 4 out of 5. Omnipollo you rock!
