Think Duvel, without less carbonation. There’s an old saying about imitation and flattery, and it applies here.

75 cL bottle, huge thanks to cquiroga for this one. Pours hazy orange with collapsing white head. Aroma is msooth spiced and yeasty with a mild dryness. Smooth and mellow yeasty. Mild spiced flavoured. Smooth and yeasty lingering finish. Stunning belgian ale - I really love the balance and smoothness of this one.

Thanks Jimbo. Pours golden with a huge white, rocky head. Aroma of wet hay, fresh dough, apple juice, vanilla, spice and candi sugar. Taste is crisp and dry, with lots of fruits: apples, pears, peaches, some light citrus (like tangerines), a bit of spice and honey. A bit of clove in the finish. An absolutely awesome brew.

Smells of Saison from 2 feet away. Peppery, clean and grainy. It poured nice and has a cloudy straw color that is both plain and pretty. Mouthfeel surprises as it’s more oily than spritzy. Alcohol taste is non-existent. Refreshing. Has a creamy-malt background and is a beautifully put-together beer. Good balance.!

750ml bottle: Deep gold pour with a sizeable frothy head that leaves surprisingly little lace. Amazingly clean aroma with lots of hay, fresh dough, lemon, white pepper, clean alcohol and fresh cut grass. Moderate carbonation leads into an esthery experience that offers granny apple, sweet pear, underripe peaches. The yeast plays off the moderately maltiness that adds light caramel, straw and earth to the mix. Finishes a bit sweeter than would be preferred, but this is well built and flaw free. I guess imitation is indeed the most sincere form of flattery. Nicely done Lost Abbey.
