Commercial Description:
A massive beer in every sense of the word. A stronger and more contemplative version of our Lost and Found Ale. Judgment Day is the base beer for our Cuvee de Tomme. Many of the Trappist Breweries produce a version of beer which ages incredibly well for many years to come. And, since none of us knows when the end of the world is coming, we suggest you stock up with lots of Lost Abbey beers so that when the end of the world magically appears from no where, you’ll have a beer or two on hand for even the stingiest of angels. Available in 750ml bottles and on draft at select inspired locations.

Editor's note. This is a new incarnation of Mother of All Beers, previously brewed at Pizza Port Solana Beach.

Pours a dark brown with red highlights. Virtually no head. Smell is complex with fig, plum, orange peel, raisins, dark fruits and toffee. Taste has a little chocolate and all of the above. Also a weird leather and anise flavor that comes through towards the end. Alcohol is there but still well hidden. Carbonation was no where to be found although this did not hurt this at all. Almost made it feel like it was from a cask..

750 mL bottle - had been holding on to this for a few months, but couldn’t wait any longer; pours dark brown and clear around the edges; light tan head quickly fades; lots of lacing on the first glass; dank musky aromas of dates and oranges; very rich and everything about this is creamy: aromas, texture and flavors; slight burn on a few sips, but just phenomenal overall; i’m glad this seems to be steadily supplied here in town

rate #400 bottle: poursa real nice dark chocolate brown colour with a medium sizedesspresso foam head that seems very creamy. aroma is a real nice vinous fruit, a good sweet malt and deep brown sugars. the fruit aromas are fantastic in this beer. the flavour is a litttel weak to start but fades into a good dark sugar and fruit flavour of raisins and black figs. the finshes is again dark fruits adn some bitterness, just a little amount of alcohol. a very good beer.

Pours a dark brown with only a bit of head. Aroma is on the dark fruit side with a bit of yeast. Flavor is prune, raisin, caramel, booze, fake sugar. Finishes with pretty much no carbonation and not smooth at all. Kind of an alcoholic mess. I don’t see how age could make this any better.

4 month old 750ml bottle- pours a reddish-brown color. Slight head to this one. Fruity aroma. Was very fruity and sweet. A lot of flavor going on. Plums, raisins, and some prune notes. A hint of alcohol in the finish. Overall a good brew well worth the wait.

Had at Madness with the Moose. Poured a dark red-brown color that was almost purple. Small off-white head. The aroma was fruity with plenty of raisin and other dark fruit. Light alcohol hits the nose. The flavor was sweet and fruity. More raisins and some light chocolate and sugar. The alcohol is pretty much covered up in the flavor. But you can feel in warm the body. Full bodied and almost sticky.

Should have rated this a long time ago.....it deserves it after having survived the plane ride home from Fullerton in my checked garment bag...stuffed in my boot. Poured a dark mahogany reddish...small, brief head. Sweet malty aroma, fruity....ripe dark fruits, prunes, raisins, etc. Full bodied with more dark fruit in the flavor, alcohol, chocolate hints....tasty for sure. Quick dry finish....low carbonation. Yet another standout brew by the LB folks.

750 ml bottle procured through trade from Ty and shared with Nate and Naka. Pours dark brown with amber hues, small, rimming white head. Sweet malt, caramel, raisin, grape and plum on the nose. Taste is caramel, toffee, lots of raisin and plum. Mild bitter. A bit dry. Dark and tasty with a great mouthfeel and a good look. Very good stuff. I’m a fan. Now where can I find some more. . . . . . . . .. . .
