Leave a comment

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

My rating: 3
My beeradvocate.com rating: 3.97
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.8

Intro: A 330ml can, with a best before date of 24th November 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A nice looking beetroot purple with a one finger pinkish purple head that had decent retention and left some nice lacing.
Aroma: Cream soda, mixed forest berries, sweet canned pineapple, cream, vanilla.
Taste: Moderately sweet, cream soda, tart, pineapple, blueberry, cream, vanilla.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.
Overall: It was interesting. It had good aroma and there was some similarities to the Bianca Blackberry Blueberry Marshmallow which was insanely good to me, but here I think the tartness of the pineapple just didn’t work as well with the other milkshake like qualities, and just didn’t make it as enjoyable to drink.

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

Intro: A 1 pint can with no canned on or best before date. Poured into a Holy Mountain tulip glass.
Appearance: A not so appetising murky brownish orange colour, with a half finger tanned head that dissipated fairly quickly and left fruit like sediment and only sparse to no lacing.
Aroma: Fruity, yuzu, strawberry, vanilla, yoghurt, ice cream smoothie.
Taste: Sour, sweet, fruity, yuzu, strawberry, Sprite, sweetened milk, vanilla.
Mouthfeel: Medium to full bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Purely on its appearance, it did not look appetising at all. Luckily, it’s aroma and flavours were many times better and enjoyable with lots of fruit, especially yuzu.

My rating: 4
My beeradvocate.com rating: 4.17
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.9

Intro: A 1 pint can, canned on 13th October 2020, ‘dazed & confused’. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A hazy beetroot purple colour with a one finger pinkish purple head that had decent retention, but left only sparse lacing.
Aroma: Sweet, candied, raspberry, mixed berries.
Taste: Slightly tart, sweet, jammy, candied, raspberry, mixed berries.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.
Overall: Aroma and flavours were nice with lots of raspberry, but it was just a bit too sweet for me. Would have preferred more sour and tartness to balance out the sweetness.

Intro: A 1 pint can, canned on 17th September 2020. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A cloudy deep reddish purple colour with a one finger pinkish head that had decent retention while leaving nice lacing.
Aroma: Cherry coke with a splash of lemonade.
Taste: Sweet, syrupy sweet, with maybe slight sour notes. Cherry, candied lemon, coke, caramel syrup.
Mouthfeel: Medium to full bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: It’s a self-styled Cola-style Sour Ale, but it’s actually way more sweet than sour, even more so than sour cola candies. The aroma is great and despite the sweetness, I do actually enjoy sipping this cherry, lemon, coke mix flavour.
