Commercial Description:
A life worth living is full of discovery and we are reminded everywhere there is opportunity. All it takes is desire to seek out and find these things, these moments and everything in between. 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.

Full nose of spicy brown sugar yeast, toast, nuts and dark fruit. Up front, though, it’s candied sugar cherry and a little wet/harsh/thin. Even smells a little bit boozy for 7-8%. Seems like it has the gravity to try to be a stronger Belgian, but as that it lacks body and smoothness. For a dubbel, it’s decent enough, has some nice sugary yeast esters, some caramel malt and candied bananas, but again, it lacks smoothness. Good but not great.

Bottled. Beer no. 10 @ American Blind III. Amber coloured. Unclear. Dense brown head. Cocoa, alcohol, sweetness and fruits in the aroma. Flavour is light yeasty, sweet, full of cocoa and fruits. Medium bodied. Quite dry. Sweet and spicy end. Nice one.

It pours a slightly hazy, brownish orange body with a tight little off-white head. Nice aroma of sweet malts, dark fruits (dried and fresh), molasses, and a lightly soapy yeast. Light bodied, it’s sweet with caramel, candi sugar, dark juicy fruit, watered molasses, and yeast. Finishes sweet with a low alcohol burn. Not bad.

Dark copper color with a lid of off white bubbles. Interesting aromas of raisins, asparagus and melons. Light earthy malt and stewed dark fruit are present, but certainly not big and robust. Quite light, perhaps in the tasting the finer qualities were lost, just seemed quite faint.

Bottle: Dark mahogany color with a ruby tinge through the light. A nice creamy thick tan head rests ontop with a lusterous ring of lacing around the outside. The nose is initially raisins, fig, other darker fruits along with molasses and brown sugar. Some muscovado and musky earthy hops. Plenty of thick body and yeasty esters. Leather and dates dance with cherry and vanilla. Creamy balanced finish, smooth mouthfeel. Quite good!

Bottle shared by alexsdad06. Poured dark brown color with medium off-white frothy head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Medium malty, woody, raisin, yeast aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture. Medium to heavy bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. Solid brew.

Bottle from Capone’s. This one was not carbonated at all. Hazy deep ruby pour with aroma of pumperkickly caramel malt, banana, funky yeast, some brown sugar, prune, oaky cognac, cheddar cheese, spices. Tastes caramel malty, with cabernet, funky cheesy yeast notes, port, cherry, oaky cognac, and bourbon. It came off like a non-carbonated cross between Sly Fox Ichor and Avery 13, with a dash of Stone 666.
