Lost Abbey Carnivale
Belgian Farmhouse
6.5%abv
Lost Abbey Brewing Co, San Marcos, CA
Complex yet drinkable Belgian farmhouse with
citrus, tropical and slight rustic elements
A: Pours a slightly hazy rich golden hue with a lively, rocky head
that leaves a beautiful lacing on the glass as the head recedes.
S: Aromas of raw grains, subtle sweetness, and delicate citrus
notes leading into some real rustic smells like wet hay, with a dry, mild funk
from (brettanomyces)
T: Starts with a light tartness and notable citrus elements
supported by a pale malt backbone.
There is a mild funk, subtle stone fruit elements and a moderate (phenolic)
clove and white pepper element
M: Light- med in body, with lively yet subdued carbonation and a
notably dry finish .
D: Very drinkable by itself, yet incredible with rustic
European fare. Think roasted fowl,
herbs and green vegetables with Farmhouse beers.
