Lost & Found from the Lost Abbey is 8.0% ABV Dubbel brewed in the monotheistic style as made in the Abbeys of Belgium. This ale is brewed raisins and rich malt and bready yeast. The beer is actually in dedication to the stuff that is lost in translation from the stuff that we read to even that of what is percieved. Nothing if not everything is what it seems but maybe even though it is lost, the conclusion found maybe all that is important. The Label explains:
============================
A life worth living is a life full of discovery and we are reminded that everywhere there is opportunity. We brewed Lost and Found Abbey Ale to pay homage to the great monastic breweries of Belgium. Like us, we hope you’ll take the time to discover a beer that breathes aromas of figs, raisins and candied fruits. Join us by raising your glass as we offer a toast then to patience, perseverance and all the things we have lost along the way and were somehow lucky enough to find once again. All it takes is a desire to seek out and find these things, these moments and everything in between.
============================
While this seems like a lighter version of some of my favorites like St. Bernardus abt 12, Trois Pistoles or the Judgement day Quad Ale, this beer has it’s own character as well. It feels like drinking capirotada, a Mexican raisin desert made with raisins, nuts, bananas, bread, and cinnamon. There is also a caramel/chocolate malt taste to it but fades away soon after the rest of the flavors hit. This is a very pleasent but not too strong ale boozy ale. Sure it has a good ABV rank but the ale’s complex fig and bread flavors make all the difference. Good Belgian style that I am sure would compliment a good meal :P.
