Sweden’s Omnipollo has a reputation of a craft beer rebel and innovator. The relatively young brewery has teamed with the craft beer industry’s ultimate rebel and innovator, veteran Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., to brew a new concoction, Hazy Day IPA, that will available for a limited time.
The small-batch hazy beer will be released next month to celebrate Sierra Nevada’s self-proclaimed National Hazy IPA Day on Aug, 15. The beer was dry hopped and will be available only at Sierra Nevada’s California and North Carolina breweries and at some bars in the New York City area.

“We had been kicking around ideas for a collaboration for a while, and then one of our innovation brewers had an idea to do something special for National Hazy IPA Day, a day to celebrate this juicy, cloudy style that so many people love,” says Isaiah Mangold, Sierra Nevada’s head innovation brewer. “Hazies are something that Omnipollo is known for in the international craft beer scene, so it was a natural fit.”
Omnipollo, which was founded in 2010, contracts breweries worldwide to brew its recipes and opened its own brewery in 2020 in an old church in Sundbyberg outside Stockholm.
Sierra Nevada ushered in the craft beer revolution with its Pale Ale many decades ago, when American beer drinkers were primarily drinking light lagers. The brewing company has collaborated with other breweries in the past, including Russian River in California and Other Half in New York, and next month will release an Octoberfest beer with Germany’s Brauerei Gutmann.
“Collaborations are fun for us,” Mangold says. “It’s an opportunity to create something special with friends from another brewery. I can’t think of another industry where collaboration is part of the culture like it is in independent craft beer. I think craft beer fans who seek out and enjoy experiencing collaboration brews can feel that sense of togetherness come through in the resulting beer.”

The resulting beer with Omnipollo pushed the IPA style “with a massive triple shot of hops,” Mangold says. “Hazy Day IPA has an extra silky-smooth, full-bodied, pillowy mouthfeel. Flavors and aromas like orange candy and pineapple with top notes of citrus are prominent.”
Before brewing the beer, Sierra Nevada brewers had several meetings with Henok Fentie, co-founder of Omnipollo, and discussed ingredient selection like hop combinations, the grain bill and what yeast to use. The aim was to make a beer that was unique and an expresssion of both breweries.
“The yeast shines through with flavor elements that Omnipollo fans will likely recognize, while the grain bill is indicative of Sierra Nevada,” Mangold says. “We were fairly aligned on hop varieties to use, but Henok wanted to amp up the pounds per barrel and convinced us that adding more doses of hops to the batch was the right call. The resulting beer represents a true mash-up of our two approaches and a heavy hand on the hops. On top of that, graphic artists from both breweries collaborated on the packaging design for the cans that will be sold on our online store and at Sierra Nevada breweries. This was a collaborative effort — and a fun one, too.”

Mojave (Nev.) head football coach Wes Pacheco announced on Sunday morning that he’s stepping down from his position, according to a social media post.
Pacheco announced his resignation after six seasons at the helm of the Rattlers, putting together a 29-22 overall record from 2020-2025.
“I have officially stepped down as Head Coach of the Mojave Football Program,” Pacheco said in his social media post. “Thank you to Principal Cole for giving me the opoortunity make an impact on the lives of Mojave Student-Athletes. I am grateful and blessed to have labored through a 6-year journey of successes, failures, life lessons, character building and growth with the student-athletes myself and my coaching staff have served.

During Pacheco’s half dozen seasons leading Mojave, his best record came in the 2024 season when the Rattlers finished with a 12-1 record. Located out of North Las Vegas, Mojave had to compete against the likes of national high school football powerhouse Bishop Gorman during the regular season.

A recent Review-Journal letter to the editor mischaracterized Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto’s Southern Nevada Economic Development and Conservation Act, also known as the Clark County Lands bill. As the former executive director of the Nevada Conservation League, I wholeheartedly support this legislation, so I wanted to set the record straight.
Sen. Cortez Masto has been working on this bill for years in partnership with state and local governments, conservation groups like the NCL and local area tribes. It’s true that the Clark County lands bill would open 25,000 acres to help Las Vegas grow responsibly, while setting aside 2 million acres for conservation. It would also help create more affordable housing throughout the valley while ensuring our treasured public spaces can be preserved for generations to come.
What is not correct is that the money from these land sales would go to the federal government’s coffers. In fact, the opposite is true.
The 1998 Southern Nevada Public Lands Management Act is a landmark bill that identified specific public land for future sale and created a special account ensuring all land sale revenues would come back to Nevada. In accordance with that law 5 percent of revenue from land transfers goes to the state of Nevada for general education purposes, 10 percent goes to the Southern Nevada Water Authority for needed water infrastructure and 85 percent supports conservation and environmental mitigation projects in Southern Nevada. This legislation has provided billions to Clark County and will continue to benefit generations of Southern Nevadans. Sen. Cortez Masto’s lands bill builds upon the act’s success.

So here’s the good news: All of the money generated from land made available for sale under Sen. Cortez Masto’s bill would be sent to the special account created by the 1998 law. Rather than going to an unaccountable federal government, the proceeds would continue to help kids in Vegas get a better education, bolster outdoor recreation and modernize Southern Nevada’s infrastructure.
I know how important it is that money generated from the sale of public land in Nevada stay in the hands of Nevadans, and so does the senator. That’s why she opposed a Republican effort last year to sell off 200,000 acres of land in Clark County and other areas of the country that would have sent those dollars directly to Washington.
Public land management in Nevada should benefit Nevadans. We should protect sacred cultural sites and beloved recreation spaces, responsibly transfer land for affordable housing when needed and ensure our state has the resources it needs to grow sustainably. I will continue working with Sen. Cortez Masto to advocate for legislation, such as the Clark County lands bill, that puts the needs of Nevadans first.
