7th Anniversary Party

Celebrate our 7th birthday with beer, food and a few of our closest friends!

7thAnniversarySmallTo celebrate our 7th year of existence, we’re going back to our roots… Long gone are the anniversary parties that were focused on pony rides and balloon animals. We’re not going to bore you with lame card tricks and annoying roaming magicians looking for tips. (though last year’s magician has yet to re-appear from his disappearing act)

This year’s 7th Anniversary party is all about GOOD BEER. We’re filling every one of our taps with beers both new and properly aged. We’re also bringing back our “Vintage Case” and filling that to the brim with some tasty “tracks”… umm… we mean beers… Tasty beers.

We also thought we’d compliment this awesome selection of beer with four of our favorite food trucks! Devilicious, Red Oven Artisanal Pizza, Hoangies and Oscar’s Meat Pies.  Each truck will have a dish paired with a select Lost Abbey or Port beers put together by our “Goddess of Paring”, Gwen.

So there you have it! Beer, Food, Friends…and we’ll even throw in some face painting… It’s our party and we’ll paint our face if we want to!

This will be a ticketed event; tickets will go on sale on 4/20 at 10am at www.lostabbey.com. They’re $20 per person and $25 day of… Though we’ve never actually had any tickets available on the day of, just an FYI.

Hope to see you there!

Updates: Tasting Room & Track 5 Release

Recently, our local Fire Inspector came by as part of their regular visitation process. During their visit, they notified us that we are not able to use the loading ramp as an entrance/exit as we have done for the past six years. That is until we install a new, controlled entrance. As such, they have severely restricted the number of employees and guests that may be inside at any given time to less than 50. We are working with them to satisfy their requirements as quickly as possible to get these restrictions lifted.
 
In the interim, we have suspended our brewery tour program and limited group visits. We are also making additional adjustments in order to provide the best service possible, while adhering to these new restrictions.

In regards to the release of Track 5 this Saturday (5/19), we will open to the public at 11:00 and Track 5 will be available at that time per normal rules and procedure. We do ask however, that in consideration of guests that may be waiting to gain entry, Patrons please limit their visit to an hour’s time or less. On-duty staff may need to cease service to guests that remain past that time.
 
We will also be featuring a Growler Fill and Bottle Sales station on the loading ramp at what was once our main entrance. Although you will not be able to enter the Tasting Room, employees will be there to assist you in selecting bottles or filling your growlers. Both cash and credit cards will be accepted.
 
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this challenge. Being able to share our outstanding beer with you is why we make it. We look forward to getting back to “business as usual” as soon as humanly possible. This also has an impact on our hard working team of Brewers and Beertenders, so we thank you in advance for supporting them through it all.
 
Please stay tuned here and via our social media feeds for further updates and information as it becomes available.
