Where to Drink Beer in North County - Eater San Diego
"The Lost Abbey is easily findable on our map, so the name doesn’t reflect its status so much as its feeling — nestled away from the coast in a hulking warehouse adorned with crosses and barrels, this place does feel a bit monastic. So it makes sense that there are Belgian monk-brewed favorites like Judgement Day (the quadrupel, so called not because it’s been fermented more than once, but because it was marked with four Xs back in medieval times — meaning that it was stronger than the dubbel or even the tripel, both of which are also on tap at the Abbey). The Abbey betrays its quiet spirit a bit, however, as it shares a space with the also-great Port Brewing, a space that used to belong to SoCal’s craft giant, Stone. Did monks ever sell classic West Coast IPAs in cans and growlers? At Lost Abbey, they do." - Mike Schramm
