Omnipollo Bianca Unicorn Lassi Gose

Leave a comment

Brewery: Omnipollo
Country: Sweden
ABV: 6%
Style: Gose – Fruit
Other Notes: Brewed by Omnipollo at De Proef Brouwerij (Belgium)

Brewer Description: (from website) We couldn’t think of a better way to describe a fantastical beer than through its fairytale counterpart. Bianca Unicorn Lassi Gose combines unadulterated joy with flavours that spark the imagination, now what does that taste like exactly? You tell us. Brewed with milk sugar.

My rating: 3
My beeradvocate.com rating: 3.74
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.4

Intro: A 440ml can, with a best before date of 24th November 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A rather unappetising brownish grey colour with a slight purple hue, and a one finger off white (tending towards grey) head that had decent retention and left some lacing.
Aroma: Sweet canned pineapple with light citrus zesty notes.
Taste: Sweet, probably too sweet, with a light salty sour in the background. The pineapple juice from canned pineapples, with lots of extra sugar mixed in, fruity hard candy, sweetened Yakult.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: This is a strange one. The appearance is a complete turn off for me. The aromas are nice, and the taste is generally my thing, and what I’d expect from a beer with ‘unicorn’ in it’s name, except that the whole thing is just way overly sweet. I think I would like it if there was more sourness to balance the sweet, but as it is, probably once is enough.

Omnipollo Bianca Raspberry Peach Marshmallow Lassi Gose

Brewery: Omnipollo
Country: Sweden
ABV: 6%
Style: Gose – Fruit
Other Notes: Brewed by Omnipollo at De Proef Brouwerij (Belgium)

Brewer Description: (from website) This Biancas is a truly colorful and candy-like treat. We took more than a decadent amount of raspberries, added some juicy peaches, a dash of milk sugar and rock salt and rounded it off with our marshmallow treatment.

My rating: 4
My beeradvocate.com rating: 4.37
My ratebeer.com rating: 4.2

Intro: A 440ml can, with no canned on or best before date. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A deep maroon colour with a just over one finger burgundy head that had good retention and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: Red berries, marshmallow, vanilla, cream, black tea, with light peach and apricot notes.
Taste: Sweet and sour, raspberry puree, smashed peaches, marshmallow, cream, with a light note of lemon juice and salt.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, full bodied with soft to moderate carbonation.
Overall: Enjoyable sweet and sour aroma and flavours. Not as epic as Blackberry Blueberry Marshmallow, but still good nonetheless.

Omnipollo Bianca Blackberry Blueberry Marshmallow Lassi Gose

Leave a comment

Brewery: Omnipollo
Country: Sweden
ABV: 6%
Style: Gose – Fruit
Other Notes: Brewed by Omnipollo at De Proef Brouwerij (Belgium)

Brewer Description: (from website) Bianca Blueberry Maple Pancake Lassi Gose quickly became a favorite for us with its deep color, inevitably potent aroma and long lasting flavor. We furthered those characteristics by adding blackberries to offer a tiny dose of sharpness and lots and lots of marshmallows, milk sugar and rock salt to give it a soft, fluffy base on top of all those berries.

My rating: 5
My beeradvocate.com rating: 4.63
My ratebeer.com rating: 4.6

Intro: A 440ml can, with a best before date of 10th September 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: It was a very nice deep beetroot purple colour with a one finger purple head that had good retention and left nice lacing.
Aroma: Cream soda, blueberry, marshmallow, vanilla.
Taste: Sweet, with a light tart note. Cream soda, blackberry, blueberry, marshmallow, vanilla, forest berry jam.
Mouthfeel: Milkshake smooth, full bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.
Overall: This is like sweetened cream soda with juiced forest berries mixed in. I like cream soda, and I like forest berries, so clearly this is my thing. Perhaps a bit on the sweet side, but the flavours work so well for me, that I might be able to ignore this. Yum!

Omnipollo Bianca Noa Strawberry Pecan Mud Cake Lassi Gose

Leave a comment

Brewery: Omnipollo
Country: Sweden
ABV: 6%
Style: Gose – Fruit
Other Notes: Brewed by Omnipollo at De Proef Brouwerij (Belgium)

Brewer Description: (from website) Two of our beers once again collaborated and made another high voltage number. We sourced really expressive strawberries with aroma and flavor reminding you of freshly picked summer strawberries to go well with the nutty aromatics of Noa Pecan. Contains milk sugar.

My rating: 4
My beeradvocate.com rating: 4.16
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.9

Intro: A 440ml can, with a best before date of 10th September 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A not too appetising sewage brown colour with maybe a slight purple hue, and a half finger beige head that dissipated fairly quickly, while leaving only sparse lacing.
Aroma: A strawberry jammy cream sponge cake put together with a chocolate nutty mud cake.
Taste: Sweet and sour, melted Neapolitan ice cream mixed together, with the tart and jammy strawberry and the sweet and nutty chocolate front and centre, and the milky vanilla in the background.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.
Overall: I get why this might be a love/hate type of beer. Other than the appearance, which I didn’t think was appetising, the aroma and flavours were my kind of thing, and it was a good liquid dessert.

Stu Mostów x North Brewing ART+45 Triple Fruited Gose Banana Strawberry

Leave a comment

Brewery: Browar Stu Mostów x North Brewing Co.
Country: Poland
ABV: 4.5%
Style: Gose – Fruit
Other Notes: 5 IBUs. Malts – Barley, Wheat Malt and Oatmeal. Hops – Chinook. Adjuncts – Banana puree and Strawberry puree

Brewer Description: (from website) Sweet and salty, gently sour and incredibly delicious beer combination! Into our new Gose from ART+ brand we added huge amounts of bananas and strawberries, which resulted in an extremely full, well-balanced taste and intense fruit aroma. Don`t forget to try this one out!

In pursuit of the most crushing, full-bodied and fruity summer combination, in the next beer from the ART+ series we decided to join forces with the North Brewing Co.! Some time ago we had the opportunity to visit their brewery in Leeds and brew together a beer included in one of the most popular series in their offer – TFG (Triple Fruited Gose). The recipe we created contained the best quality malts, oats, lactose and salt to create an incredibly full, thick, smooth and… triple fruit experience! As it was very well received, when brewing at Dlugosza 2 Street (this time online) once again we decided to bet on the Gose style enriched with bananas and aromatic strawberries.

Intro: A 440ml can, with a best before date of 1st December 2021. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A cloudy pink guava orange colour with a two finger white head that had good retention, while leaving some nice lacing.
Aroma: Fruity, strawberry, banana, milkshake.
Taste: Moderate sweetness, some fruit, strawberry, banana, with slight minerality.
Mouthfeel: Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: A strange one for me. It sounds like something I would like a lot, and I definitely enjoyed the aroma. But the flavour, while it had some strawberry and banana, still seemed to be light on the fruit flavours, while what flavours there were, also ended quite abruptly.
