New Old Lompoc L.S.D
Still at New Old Lompoc
L.S.D.
Now I’ve got a Lompoc Strong Ale, on nitro, I believe. The nose is rather smokey.
Not a huge amount of body, but that may be a perceptional effect of the nitro. A visual check shows that this is a deep red color, more like Guiness, which is rather thin as well. Most of the hops show up at the finish, which is rather bitter at the end. Overall the balance is a little hop heavy. I would personally prefer a little more malt and body to balance the hops, but some people might really like this.
Overall the complexity is above average, enough to keep it interesting. However the intense hop finish makes it more of a one pint beer.
The finish is quite smooth though, but kind of has a hole in the middle where the body should be.
WDTB? Apparently this beer is one of the most popular here.
WSDTB? Someone who wants a strong, dark, hoppy beer, although without much body.
Rating: 8.1/10
