Lost Abbey Brewing Co, San Marcos, CA Head Brewer: Tomme Arthur

American Wild Ale /Raspberry beer 7.0%ABV  375ml  $42  Beer Advocate:  A- RateBeer 100

A:  Pours a muddy rose color with orange edges and lofty head with minimum retention.  Be aware that there is going to be sediment in the bottle so any agitation will make that more noticeable.

S:  Sweet, seedy, tangy, tart, raspberry aroma with an underlying wine barrel aged oaky funk.

T: A dry bouquet of tart berries.  This is a very complex beer of acid, fruit, age and spontaneity.

M:  Medium bodied with adequate carbonation, and a crisp dry and slightly earthy finish.

D:  This beer is extremely drinkable and should be done so under pristine conditions.  This is a beer to be enjoyed with great friends, for a special occasion, and with only the best food.

Food Pairings:  This beer begs to be enjoyed with richer items.  Foie, Bone Marrow, Cheese plate, boudin noir, pigs ears, and pork porterhouse.
