Judgment Day Celebration
It's the End of the World as we know it.Or maybe it isn't. Based on your personal beliefs, May 21, 2011 could be a) your ticket to heaven, b) the beginning of the end, or c) just the third Saturday in May.
Regardless of what happens, however, we're hard-pressed to come up with a better way to enjoy the day than with our gold medal winning Judgment Day Belgian quad-style ale.So all day May 21 we'll be celebrating Judgment Day with tasting room specials, drawings and events. Here's just a few of the things on tap for the End of Days:
- Judgment Day Specials: Pints - $4, Growler Fills - $12, Bottles (375ml and 75ml) - 20% off
- Prize Drawings: We'll be holding drawings throughout the day for The Lost Abbey clothing, headwear and our cool new Lost Abbey flags
- Costume competition: Come dressed ready for the Apocalypse (horseman, avenging angel, demon, sinner, saint -- it's up to you) and be eligible to win stuff suitable for sinners and saints alike!
- Judgment Day Art: We'll have the original Four Horsemen painting that is our Judgment Day label on display. Come check it out in all it's doomsday glory.
The fun starts at 12pm and carries on until 6pm (by then we'll probably know if the world is coming to an end or not). Admission is free and open to both Sinners and Saints alike. See you there!

What Beer to Have for Thanksgiving
Well, Halloween is over and it's time to turn our attention to Thanksgiving. Coincidentally, over at Craftbeer.com, famed beer professor, author and aficionado, Randy Mosher, has a great article on beer pairings for every stage of the day long food celebration.
Among Mosher's many outstanding suggestions -- Judgment Day (for the wine drinkers in the family) and Old Viscosity (perfect with pie).After you're done reading the story you can print it and make it a holiday beverage shopping list. Even it you don't get through the whole list on Turkey Day, you'll be set for every holiday party and get-together from now until New Year's Day.You can read the story here:
