Nebuchadnezzar Junior presents as a classic, punchy American IPA with a distinct West Coast lean. It leads with a vibrant sensory array of resinous pine, zesty grapefruit, and hints of tropical mango, reflecting the signature bold hop handling characteristic of Omnipollo. The aromatics are supported by a clean, lean backbone of pale malts that provides a faint cracker-like foundation without intruding on the hop profile. On the palate, a crisp, sharp bitterness asserts itself early, carrying through to a bone-dry, refreshing finish. It is a streamlined, highly drinkable interpretation of its bigger sibling, balancing high hop intensity with an effortless, clean fermentation character.
