nickd717 (1320), Palo Alto, California, USA Nov 12, 2009 On tap at Lost Abbey for barrel tasting night 2009. Pours from the carafe a hazy medium brown color with a minimal head. Aroma is red wine, caramel, dark fruit, and a woody, somewhat tart barrel essence. Flavor is really vinous and tart and very tasty with cabernet, toffee, whiskey, raisin, fig, spice, and funky barrel notes. Carbonation is a bit low, but par for the course for Lost Abbey, yet it still manages to be an extremely enjoyable beer. Medium body with mild acidity. Sparky27 (1583), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Nov 10, 2009 From barrel # 43 on tap via carafe at Lost Abbey Barrel Night 2009. Pours dark amber with zero head. The nose is booze, wood, vanilla, light cherry and dark fruits. The taste is iced tea, dark fruit, wood, tart fruit and booze. Medium fairly flat mouthfeel. Decent. rustychiles (1016), Mesa, Arizona, USA Nov 9, 2009 At the 3rd barrel tasting.

Pours a cloudy brown color. Oaky, tart, malty, fruity and yeasty in the aroma. Flavor is damn fine. Fresh cut oak, caramel, and raisins. Thanks to thecheeseman for this beauty! Rustyham (556), miami, Florida, USA Aug 9, 2009 dark brown with a clear rim, sweet vinegar smell. Tastes like olives. Not too happy with it. Bottle thanks to either JW77, Daknole, or Ryan. SamGamgee (1420), Santa Cruz (La Selva), California, USA Jul 14, 2009 Bottle at the RBSG grand tasting thanks to JohnC. Hazy brown with a small head. Very funky bretty aroma with citrus, wine, and some oak. Nice start to the flavor with some caramel and dried fruit, leading to a dry and tart finish with a touch of wood. Light bodied with medium carbonation. Lost and Found is already a very nice beer, and the barrel aging had added a really cool complexity and style to it.
