Join the Port Brewing / The Lost Abbey crew for brunch in advance of Stone Brewing’s 12th Anniversary Celebration on August 16th, 2008.

Chef Vince will be cooking up a hearty breakfast that includes eggs, bread, at least five or six pork products — all of which you can wash down with our big tap list of award-winning beers.

Beers on hand will include:

From the Port Brewing side:

• Sharkbite Red
• Wipeout IPA
• Old Viscosity
• Hop 15

And from the Lost Abbey side:

• Witch’s Wit (New!)
• Devotion
• Avant Garde
• Lost & Found
• Judgment Day

And hey, who knows, we may get crazy and pull something out of the archives to tap. (You never can tell…)

Brunch starts at 8:30am and rolls along until 11 or so (around the time Stone’s First Session starts). Best of all, the food is FREE.

This year the Stone celebration is being held at Cal State San Marcos, which is conveniently a five minute drive right across the 78 freeway from us.

See you at there!

Masquerade party and release of Carnevale Ale

Lost Abbey will celebrate Carnevale Venetian-style with a masquerade celebration on February 2, 2008 from 6pm to 10pm.

We’ll also be issuing our first release of Carnevale Ale, a blonde Saison ale accented with American hops.

To encourage people to celebrate, everyone who attend the masquerade in costume will be admitted FREE to enjoy live music, great food courtesy of our in-house Italian chef, Vince Marsaglia. (Those without a costume will be admitted for a nominal $10 charge.)

We’ll also have an assortment of outstanding Port Brewing and Lost Abbey beers at our our regular prices as well as the the first release of Carnevale Ale, available in 750ml cork-finished bottles for only $8.99 per bottle.

Our sister outfit, Pizza Port, will be hosting it’s annual Real Ale Festival June 1st and 2nd at the Carlsbad location. From the website description:

The most amazing selection of Real Ales dispensed in the traditional way using beer engines and this year we will even have some Real Ale bottled beer to taste. It’s a great way to get educated while having too much fun!

Admission is $25, which gets you admission for both days, a commemorative glass and eight tasters. Additional tasters are available for just $1 apiece. There’s also a VIP Tasting, which is $40, but it gets you in at 1pm on Friday (instead of 4pm for the great unwashed), plus access to a whole bunch of real ales that are too limited to make available during the main sessions.

If you’ve never been to one of Pizza Port’s events (e.g., the Belgian Beer Fest, Real Ale Festival or Strong Ale Festival), then you definitely need to attend — it’s always a great time. (Oh, plan on getting a hotel and/or taxi — you will definitely need it!)

You can get all the information on Pizza Port’s website right here.

VIP tickets are available for purchase online right here.
