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. Please join us by raising your glass as we offer a toast to patience, perseverance, and all the things we have lost along the way and were somehow lucky enough to find once again.

Bottle @ Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Originally rated on 28.1.2010. Pretty generic Belgian styled ale. Notes of raisin, malts and caramel. Slightly unbalanced.

Hazy color, dark mahogany; medium sized head. The caramel aroma is perfumy enough. Good body strength; powerful caramel aroma, with some chocolate and oxidisation; also lightly dusty. Well balanced. The aroma is finer, the flavor is more ordinary.

Bottle thanks to a generous trader. Pours dark brown. Tan head. Nose and taste of mostly dark fruits - sweet raisin, date and figs with roasted malts and Belgian yeast. Body is a bit on the light side. Good carbonation.

Cloudy brown beer, low carbonation. Dry palate. Tastes aged - old malt with a hint of raisans. Fairly spirity spicy finish. Okay but not great by the usual Lost Abbey standards.

750mL bottle, pours dark orangey amber with a beige head. Aroma of caramel, spices and a dry character. Flavour of dried fruits, smooth caramel, with a dry palate. Solid.

750ml bottle. Worthless label description. Thick, practically opaque brown-burgundy color. Soapy, lacy beige head. Mellow dark Belgian yeast aroma. The raisin flavor is apparent, but melds perfectly in with the style. Mellow carbonation in comparison to it’s Belgian role-models. Still quite a nice beer, subdued and subtle. Easy drinking, hides the alcohol superbly. Pretty solid, well executed.

Bottle at the Funky 6. Pours a semi-clear, amber-brown with a dense, off-white head. Malty, sugary aroma with caramel, raisins and anis. Very sweet, with malts, lightly roasted, more caramel, toffee and plenty of ripe, dark fruits. Medium bodied with an oily consistency and average carbonation. Finishes sweet, warm and with lingering fruit and toffee notes. Good beer. (August 2010, score: 3.7)

Draft at Craft Beer Co. Clapham during Route CBC - London. Pours clear amber with a creamy, off-white head. The nose holds meaty malts, burnt herbs, orange rind. Medium sweet flavor with more meat, light ham, toast, moderate caramel. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish with toasted malts, light caramel, earth, honeyed ham. Nice one. (October 2015, score: 3.5)

Funky raisin aroma, not good funk. Clear ochre brown, thick head. Overripe apple and very old musty raisin flavor, dryish for the style. Alcohol pretty noticeable.
