Sorry, but this beer did not do anything for me. Appearance was flat, the olden orange pour had a head that immediately diappeared, and there was absolutely no lacing. Aroma was sour hops, at best, flavor was like drinking a macro lager, and the finish was nothing to write home about. I’ve had some good Vienna beer, but this ain’t one of ’em.

Bottle. Pour a hazy amber orangish color with a medium white head. Aroma was minimal. Taste was mildly crisp with a bit of caramel taste. It is a light bodied beer that starts off a little sweet with a slight malt finish. Not very hoppy tasting at all.

A refreshing amber with no hop residuals. If given a choice... go with the Abita Red, a much better beer by comparison.

A hazy orange beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet with a somewhat sharp hop note. The flavor is very light with hints of malt, and a somewhat stronger note of hops. A boring beer, can only be used for refreshment, even on a humid Danish summer day.

A bit watery, but a tasty light flavor. Probably my least favorite Abita brew.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours amber with a slight haze and a small, off-white head. Somewhat fat, caramelish nose. Light and watery body with vague notes of caramel malt. Basically no bitterness. Thin indeed. 250606

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one. Pours amber with an off-white head. Aroma of citrus, sweet malts, grain. Flavor is sweet, malty, slight citrusy bitter finish. Ok body, ok brew.

Draught @ ODBF. Amber colored. Average head. Malty aroma. Average lager flavor, not extremely crisp, weak amount of hop flavor and bitterness.
