SON OF C-NOTE PREVIEW
This Saturday is the annual Bastille Day Celebration at N Failing and N Williams, and Lompoc is joining in the celebration with a beer garden featuring the release of our annually-awaited Lompeizer.

Lompeizer release+preview of Son of C-Note, their beer for the Oregon Brewers Festival.
Happy Hour all day with $1 off Lompoc beers and cocktails.

Lompeizer is Lompoc’s tribute to American domestics. Brewed with Pilsner malt and 30% flaked rice, the result is a pale straw colored beer that is highly drinkable and perfect for summer in Oregon.

Like its father, Son of C-Note is a hop masterpiece – if there’s a hop whose name begins with “C,” it’s probably in this beer. Six additions of Chinook, Crystal, Centennial, Cascade, CT2, Challenger and Cluster hops make Son of C-Note register on the upper end of the hops scale. It was also double dry hopped after fermentation giving the beer a massive hop aroma. Great Western pale and crystal malts combined with flaked oats provide the malty backbone.

Take a beer break and head on over to the Pix Patisserie Bastille Day Celebration, a day/night long block party that honors the storming of the Bastille prison in 1789 that spurred the French Revolution. There will be live music from local bands like Nice Nice and Dirty Mittens, a wine drinking 5K, Champagne sabering demo, dance off, and more. Did we mention the giant Bastille Tower made of cream puffs? Yes, you get to eat it! For more info on the schedule of activities, visit www.pixpatisserie.com.

This is a FREE community event but in exchange they Pix asks that each attendee bring 2 or more non perishable food items for the Oregon Food Bank. For each item donated guests will receive a raffle ticket for a chance to win one of 100 gift certificates to Portland’s best restaurants.
