I'm not sure what meaning lies behind the name Omnipollo Mazarin, but I'm certain delicious has something to do with it. "What!?!," you exclaim. Yes, Marci is enjoying another pale ale. I know, it's like you don't even know me anymore. See. This is what two weeks on the west coast will do to a person!

The Mazarin poured a honey color with a slight haze and a thin white head. It has a nice citrus and woody aroma. The flavor is resinous hops and lightly pine tinged. Between the flavor and the low ABV (5.6%), this is an easy to drink beer.
From the brewer: "Mazarin is my take on a 'thinker’s beer'. Rather than being big and undecipherably complex I wanted to create something that would calm a hop yearning nerve without fuddling the brain too much. In other words, a lavishly hopped Pale Ale of judicious ABV — an Extra Special Pale Ale if you will." I think he hit this one out of the ballpark!
