Dec 7, 2008 Monks Cafe Philadelphia in company of Loz Casey and Traci, 15-11-08. Pours hazy golden with white head, though in the confines of a back bar that resembles the Bat cave for gloominess its difficult to see. In fact it was that dark in this place that I couldnt even see to write my notes and had to dictate them to Loz who has better eyesight than me. Nice soft lemony flavours and aromas, good farmhouse feel to this, plenty of yeast, drying at the end. Very nice beer.

Dec 1, 2008 Pours a cloudy straw yellow with a minimal head and a sweet lemon-lozenge aroma. Pleasant hoppy taste, honey and lemon-lozenge again, but something in there isn’t quite right... my notes mention urine but this was several beers into the tasting (but before I managed to nearly kill myself with pistachio chocolate - I’m allergic - and then break G’s glass in a frantic effort to fill repeatedly with water to wash the pistachios out of my mouth; ah memories!) Thin body but lightly creamy with decent carbonation. I’m not too fussy on blonde ales, so I think it’s just me, but that’s how we’re supposed to rate... thanks to G for the taste!

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy/murky pale yellow, nice white head that dissapates rather fast. Aroma is citrus, grass and malt. Flavor is sweet malt, hops and a touch of spices and fruit.

Nov 27, 2008 750 ml, cork and cage. Hazy golden pour with a fine white head. Belgiany-IPA type beer. Hops apparent, and well balanced with clean malts and belgian yeast. Slightly spicy and bready. Super easy drinking and quite tasty. While not mind blowing, it’s really enjoyable.

Nov 27, 2008 Bottle. Pours with a largish, thick slighly off-white head and a hazy golden body. Good lacing. Aroma is weak with yeast, a bit of spice and some vinous element. Taste is hay, yeast, lightly peppery, and a touch of hops. Dry and crisp mouthfeel. A weaker part of the PB/LA/PP lineup.

7/28/2007 and 9/04/2008: Lost Abbey Devotion has grassy citrus, perfumy, spicy, and floral hops in the fruity, slightly spicy aroma. The flavor has orange and grapefruit with a dry finish and pleasing floral bitterness. The bitterness level is mild to moderate. This beer has a copper color with a substantial foamy beige head that creates good lacing. The mouthfeel is soft and smooth. Overall this beer is very much like a Pale Ale or IPA and quite good.
