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.

UPDATED: OCT 9, 2007 Maaallllty! Yeah! It’s really great to try a dark beer, where the dark color comes from something other than roasted malts...in this case raisins I think. Sweet molasses, plums, vanilla and raisins. I’ve tried other beers with raisins and haven’t been impressed, but Judgment Day is really delicious. I bought a growler at Port Brewing Company’s tasting room. the alcohol is well suppressed. It supposed to be brewed in limited quanties so I’b going to buy one to store for a year. Again, great beer. My highest rating yet: 4.6. 9,5,9,5,18 I tried again at the anniversary party: aroma:8,taste:8.5, appearance: 5, palate:4.5,overall:18. Brought it down from 4.6 to 4,5.

Crispy34 (177) - Texas, USA - MAY 10, 2013
Bottle share from Donny... Aroma is of dark fruit and quad. The appearance is a maroonish brown with a fizzy tan head. The taste starts out of a fizzy, dark fruit that rolls into raisin and finishes with some dry dark malt. The palate is fizzy and dark. Overall, this is a very well done quad. Not over the top with the raisin of quad taste. Very easy drinking for being such a big beer.
