Quest for Lost Abbey bottles


Bottle count updated 1/10/2011!

Who needs to search for a Holy Grail? I do! Well, not in an Indiana Jones type of way, but rather in a beer sort of way.

So, I've been thinking lately... The Lost Abbey brewery has the best style and artwork of any brewer out there (in my opinion, of course). I would really like to get all the obtainable Lost Abbey bottles out there to try and place the empty bottles on my (future) bar shelf. We all need to have dreams, right? With the exception of Cable Car, Yellow Bus and some of their older bottles, I think this is possible.

So, I'm thinking about buying some bottles and having them shipped to me or trade for them. Here's a list of the beers Lost Abbey has bottled (and no, I'm not trying to get all the Veritas or Yellow Bus):
  • 10 Commandments (Belgian Strong Dark Ale) *Have one in the cellar
  • Amazing Grace Ale (Dubbel) *Need this bottle
  • Avant Garde (Bière de Garde) *Have one in the cellar
  • Cable Car (American Wild Ale) *Need this bottle
  • Carnevale (Saison) *Need this bottle
  • Cuvee De Tomme (American Wild Ale) *Have one in the cellar (newtonty's)
  • Deliverance (American Strong Ale) *Have one coming on a trade
  • Devotion Ale (Belgian Pale Ale) *Need this bottle
  • Duck Duck Gooze (American Wild Ale) *Have an empty bottle
  • Framboise De Amorosa (American Wild Ale) *Have an empty bottle
  • Gift Of The Magi (Bière de Garde) *Have one in the cellar
  • Inferno Ale (Belgian Stong Pale Ale) *Need this bottle
  • Isabelle Proximus (American Wild Ale) *Have an empty bottle
  • Judgment Day (Quad) *Have one in the cellar
  • Lost & Found Abbey Ale (Dubbel) *Have one in the cellar
  • Red Barn Ale (Saison) *Have one in the cellar
  • Red Poppy Ale (Flanders Oud Bruin) *cdflem is sending an empty, thank you!
  • Saints Red Barn (American Wild Ale) *Have one in the cellar
  • Saints' Devotion (Belgian Pale Ale) *Have one in the cellar
  • Serpent's Stout (American Double / Imperial Stout) *Have an empty bottle
  • Sinners Blend (Belgian Strong Dark Ale) *Have one coming on a trade
  • The Angel's Share (American Strong Ale) *Need this bottle
  • The Angel's Share Grand Cru (American Strong Ale) *cdflem is sending an empty, thank you!
  • Veritas (American Wild Ales)  *Have one in the cellar
  • Witch's Wit (Witbier) *Need this bottle
I will let you all know as things progress!

This would look great on my bar wall...
