The Lost Abbey Track 8 returns, Saint’s Devotion out in the market

 

The Lost Abbey Track 8 label(San Marcos, CA) – The Lost Abbey Track 8 returned to shelves locally this week. The Lost Abbey Marketing Manager, Adam Martinez, also told BeerPulse that the beer will be distributed across the company’s distribution network. Expect quantities to be very limited for this one.

Speaking of 375ml limited release bottles, the company shipped Saint’s Devotion a couple weeks ago. If you want 750ml bottles or can’t find 375ml bottles, you’ll want to go through The Rare Beer Club. (It’s still available but you’ll need to order on the phone and ask for it specifically – mention BeerPulse!).

Below is the Track 8 beer description from when the beer was originally released as part of the Track Series in summer of 2012. Note: the video above is also from 2012.

The Beer: A fresh track, Track 8 is a spicy monster — A base of Judgment Day aged in freshly emptied bourbon barrels then spiked with liberal additions of cinnamon stick and dried chili pepper.

ABV: 13.7%

First Released: August 18, 2012

Liner Notes: We’ve never released a Bourbon Barrel version of our Judgment Day. So we thought it might be interesting to take the base beer for Cuvee de Tomme age in first fill Bourbon Barrels and let mother nature take over. Of course, because this is a Rock and Roll inspired Box Set beer, we couldn’t just leave well enough alone. Upon sampling the base beer, it became apparent that the raisins used to brew the base beer were going to drive the flavor bus of this beer. The conversations turned to Oatmeal Raisin cookies and the essence of a freshly baked treat. So we added some cinnamon sticks to the barrels and threw in some dried chiles as well. At 13.70 ABV this beer has amazing depth of flavor and presents a unique drinking experience for consumers who may be seeking enlightenment on Judgment Day.
