Abita Amber Lager

I’m not really a Lager man, but this ain’t half bad...I personally won’t buy it, but I’ll drink it if it’s put in my hand after a round of Golf...

Bottle. Kind of disappointed in this one as I really like their Turbodog, Purple Haze, Abita Select, etc. Clear amber pour with white head that doesnt last. Has a bit of a caramel taste to it, very drinkable but nothing special.

Draught @ Flying Saucer Little Rock 5-2-07. Hazy amber with a big white head. Slightly sour aroma, but mostly toast. More toastiness in the flavor, and the flavor is slightly sour as well. Fineshes nice and dry. Definately drinkable.

Pours a lean amber with a thick creamy light tan head. Looks like you’d expect. The aroma is light, grassy, slightly sour. The taste is....ok. Its light, refreshing, unoffensive. Its an easy drinking session beer.

AC Beerfest-12 oz bottle-pours a light tan head and gold/amber color. Aroma is medium malt-caramel, perfumy, something Euro-skunky. Taste is medium malt-caramel, perfumy, something Euro-skunky. Thin mouth feel.

Bottle: Pours a clear amber color with an off white head. Aroma, caramel and an earthy hop presence. Flavor, caramel, grassy hops, bready but a bit metallic.

This is a beer that usually can be had at establishments in SE Louisiana, and therefore is the easy choice vs, the generic mass-marketed American cr@p. Not as good as its brother brew Turbodog, but certainly mroe interesting than something like Bud.

Nice flavor, though indistinct. Excellent color and appearance. Not one I would buy on a regular basis though (it also appears to be the most common local brew in New Orleans, as it was everywhere I went).
