| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 18, 2008 bottle in Louisiana. First beer after a long day of travel. So it might be a bit skewed. I enjoyed it quite a lot. And I’m not a big lager fan. Enough malts to give it a rich taste. Aroma was weak but not offensive. Flavor a nice caramel. Decent mouthfeel. Not sure in NOLA will have many micro options. If not,I’ll come back to this. beachbum25 (783), Powellville, Maryland, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 15, 2008 12 oz Bottle-Clear amber pour w/a slight head. Solid, easy drinking Amber w/flavors of roasted malt, caramel, toffee, & bread dough. If you like Ambers like I do, you will enjoy this beer. Very Yuengling like; definite session brew. Something you can enjoy & not think too much about. AR (423), Georgia, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Feb 15, 2008 Not very smooth. Good feel as the beer lingers pleasantly. Acidic malt flavor. mmmbeer (745), Austin, Texas, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 9, 2008 12 oz. bottle poured into lager glass- poured fair amber brown, minimal head (x>1mm) dissolved to nothing in a minute, extremely light carbonation. Aroma of light malt. Hits the mouth with a very thin body, the malt along with a tiny amount of hops are detectable, finish is crisp. Slightly before what I would consider an average vienna, but it did help put out the fire when I added too much green death to my crawfish Po’ Boy I was munching on at the time- it all equals out in the end. tio (3), Vicksburg, Mississippi, USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 8, 2008 Probably my favorite Abita so far. I like the hit of caramel on the end. Still have a few to try. jstraw (758), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 5, 2008 Copper-amber with light, white head / Simple corn nose / Medium body, low carbonation with fair finish / Simple corn and honey flavors / I love New Orleans, and I love drinking Abita in New Orleans, but this beer really isn’t very good.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 2, 2008 Has an amber color as the name suggests. Not a very good aroma. Flavor is decent, a sweet malt with a very mild bitterness. Not too bad overall. RblWthACoz (963), Brooklyn, New York, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Feb 2, 2008 Pours a clear amber with a crème head. Nose is like a pile of wet grass from yesterday that I let sit out on the front yard since then. Nasty. Over time calms down to a mere wet grass stink, but still... Flavor seems to be heavily influenced by a straw character. Feel is decent at best. Nice level of carbonation and a good liquid feel, but the flavor just kills any possibility of a positive experience here. Overall just a weak beer. Nothing at all good about it from my point of view. Avoid.
