Description
Our story began back in 2009, Old Dominion Brewing Company had been brewing and serving craft beers in Loudoun County Virginia since ‘89 and was a beloved fixture in the county. However, in 2009 the company had been bought by AB InBev and later relocated their operation to Delaware, which of course left a large void in the local craft beer community. During this transition, Matt Hagerman, Lost Rhino’s founder, had managed to purchase some of Old Dominion’s brewing equipment, including its 25 barrel brewhouse and started getting together a business plan. By starting his own adventure in brewing, he would also help bring the spirit of craft beer back into Loudoun County. Since Matt had been a brewer at Old Dominion, and knew exactly what he needed to make this goal a reality. So he found his own space, set up the brewhouse, fermentors, brite tanks and not too long after in 2011, began brewing some of our first and most beloved brands: New River Pale Ale, Rhino Chasers Pilsner, and Face Plant India Pale Ale right here in Loudoun.

Nowadays, Lost Rhino has grown quite a bit since it’s founding, but we have never lost sight of our love for the craft. In the brew house, we take pride in bringing classic styles and local flavor in all of our beers. Everything we craft is personal; we thrive on choosing the scenic route, the tough challenge, the road less traveled.

It’s time to Get Lost!

12 oz. can. Thanks Ashley! Pours a hazy gold color with a small off-white head and poor retention. Zero lacing. Smells like a pale lager to me. Very strange taste. Tastes like a mix of pale malts and fruit esters, with a harsh, acidic finish. Not a good mix. Thin, watery body. Very crisp mouthfeel. Not bitter.

2 month old can A: Poured a big 2 tan head over a deep amber orange body. Thick foam held up extremely well and left sticky lace patches. S: Balanced aroma of light toast and tart fresh orange citrus. T: Drying and bitter orange pith and pine well balanced by a good dose of caramel sweetness, then a floral finish. Pronounced cascade. M: Medium light with average carbonation and a wet powdery finish. O: Big toasty malt balance makes it tasty enough to enjoy several.
