I was lucky enough to be invited to a beer dinner last Thursday night thrown by The Lost Abbey, held at the Port Brewing facility in San Marcos. Tables were set up inside the small brewery, making it a very cozy evening. Luckily, everyone knew one another and didn’t mind being in a candlelit brewery with over 120 others.
One of the main reasons for the dinner was the debut of Isabelle Proximus Collaborative Sour Ale, a beer made by Tomme, along with Adam Avery, Sam Calagione, Vinnie Cilurzo and Rob Todd; and inspired by their trip to Belgium two years ago with Italian beer writer Lorenzo Dabove, better know simply as Kuaska. This was first time all six of them were able to try the beer at the same time.
Sam drew the artwork for Isabelle Proximus Collaborative Sour Ale, shown here on a cask of it. We were treated to a five-course meal paired with Lost Abbey beers inside the brewery. It was a great evening and my first of three beer dinners in four days.
