New Old Lompoc C-Note

Brewed by New Old Lompoc Brewery
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Portland, Oregon USA

old note 11/1 @ Redbones during Northwest Fest. Good aroma, sweet, soft, subtle. Orange citrus mainly, hazedreddish orange color, good head, and lace. Bitter sweet flavor, grapefruit, caramel. Thick body, creamy mouthfeel, bitter dry finish. Good, though not a standout in the aroma or flavor, had many others like it. Looked great too.

Amber pour with a thick white head. The nose is really lovely. Heavy, spicy hops with a fairly tropical character as well. Earthy and spicy with a kiss of light resinousness. Grapefruit and orange peel with a touch of pine. It’s kind of unusual how there are so many distinct hop characteristics in here. There is a touch of lightly minerally/musky flavour on the back of the pine and fruit that I really enjoy. Lovely integration of malts and hops toward the finish. Soft pine and a bit of light caramel/crackery malts. Quite fresh and tasty. I can’t say there is really anything particularly unique about it, but something about it just hits for me.

Bottle courtesy of Darryl. Pours a deep amber orange. Caramel malt & Piney hops aroma. Taste was medium hopped, well balanced, a tad too malty perhaps. Tasty & easy drinking

22oz. Bottle: Weak aroma of hops, citrus, light grapefruit, slight grass, and a hint of caramel. Poured very deep amber/very deep orange in color with a small, creamy, tan head that diminished but lasted throughout as a rocky film on top of the beer. Very hazy. Sparkling. Good to very good lacing. Flavor is lightly sweet and medium bitter. Tastes of hops, pine, resin, slight lychee, light caramel, slight toasting, slight citrus, and a hint of grapefruit. Medium body. Oily, then dry texture. Average carbonation. Hoppy, resinous, pine, and light caramel malt finish is dry.

22 oz bottle via LS. Pours a dark clear copper with an average beige head. Nose is pine resin and alcoholic. Taste is caramel, toffee, biscuits, orange rind and pine. Not bad, but i have a feeling it is not real fresh. Body is medium/full, carbonation is moderate. An easy to drink IIPA pn a recordbreaking 110f Oregon City afternoon!

Bottle Pours out a cloudy amber topped with a tall cream sand head. Aroma was nice lots of floral hops. Tast was nice more of the floral hops a nice malt and a nice mouth full. A little flower tast on the end along with a good bitterness.

22 oz bomber. Darker amber coloured ale, small light tan head. That goes fast,but leaves nice lace. Good hoppy aromas waft up,grassy lemony some malt too. Taste is rather balanced with a great toffeeish malt and lemony hop after wards. Very nice. Good mouthfeel and palate. A moderatly drinkable strong pale ale/IPA. Like to taste fresh though

22, pours a darker amber than I expected. Very floral and citrus aroma. Flavor was all citrus to me, with some floral and malt sweetness. This is much better than I remember it from other times on tap.
