In anticipation of Dia De Los Muertos and inspired by the profound flavors of Mexican Chocolate, The Lost Abbey will be releasing it’s newest and very limited celebratory creation; My Black Parade.
Continuing The Lost Abbey’s trend in being inspired by worldly religious-based stories, My Black Parade tells the story of unrequited love being remembered each year on Dia De Los Muertos. A crowd of believers, that grows with each procession, making a yearly pilgrimage to an unmarked grave, waiting for true love to show up.
A blended Bourbon barrel-aged Strong Ale with cocoa nibs, vanilla bean and spices, My Black Parade will be limited to only 60 cases with all inventory sold online through The Lost Abbey Website.
Pouring darker than a moonless night, My Black Parade begins with a deep bouquet of rich chocolate and layered hints of cinnamon and oak. Huge flavors of cocoa on the palate with notes of vanilla, bourbon, and tobacco, finishing with crisp bite from the smoked chili’s and cardamom.

Very good strong extra dark beer. I’m not picking up on most of the nuances that are in the description but it’s still so very good. Almost like an imperial stout maybe minus a little of the body. Overall nor on the sweet side and a sipper.

Draft pour at Savor: An American Craft Beer & Food Experience 2017. Poured a nearly pitch black color - let’s just fall it pitch black, with a small, wispy tan head. Aroma was smooth roasted chocolates, dark chocolate bakers chocolate with some vanilla notes. Flavor was very similar. Bourbon shines in this one, light woody notes with some dry cocoa powder dusting.

Bottle from the dregs run. Cheers Craig. Pours murky brown with no head. Aromas of chocolate, spice and a red wine note. Light vanilla. Taste is light sour, woody, chocolate, boozy, faint smoke. Quite a lot going on.
