| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 22, 2009 bottle. Clear amber color with a fizzy off white head. Caramel and toasted bread aroma. Initial taste is slightly sweet with caramel and sweet dough. It eventually changes to a bitter flavor and finishes with that all familiar funky Abita spring water aftertaste. Still refreshing and drinkable in my book. lithy (1650), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Jul 10, 2009 Clear red-orange, loose off white head. Grainy caramel aroma. Taste is water, light caramel, toasted grain, little else. ditmier (1059), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 5, 2009 2009 Bottle - Pours brown with a small tannish head...aroma is malty and a bit grainy...flavour is similar, light cocoa, toast...passable, but I reach for many things before an amber usually...

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 28, 2009 Not a great amber by any stretch of the imagination. Light but refreshing. It went rather well spicy Cajun food like crawfish etouffee, gumbo, and jambalaya. Still it’s one step above a typical domestic light beer in my mind. Lacks in flavor, body, complexity, and aroma. Drinkable though bu11zeye (5442), Frisco, Texas, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 19, 2009 (12oz bottle) Pours a clear copper body with a small off-white head. Aroma of nuts, toasted grain, and grass. Flavor of nuts, grass, toasted malt, and caramel. ronaldtheriot (60), Laplace, Louisiana, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 15, 2009 This is a good amber beer, but some batches tend towards sour. Usually better on tap. I’d recommend giving it a chance, with bread and butter for a side dish.

I really only every drank this back in the day becase Emril would cook with it. I will tell you this, for some reason it makes great BBQ sauce
