| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Oct 25, 2009 bottle, pours light amber with a medium frothy off white head. Aroma is nice with the crystal malt very sweet smelling, some floral hops as well. Sweet doughy malt flavor with a smooth bittersweet malt finish. Not bad. FlssmrBrewAlum (1190), Lisle, Illinois, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 9, 2009 12 oz bottle from the Binnys Singles Rack (Orland Park, Il). Pours a bit of a dark gold, just a touched hazed, with decent offwhite head that dissipates to a good film. Well carbonated, aromas are some decent bready malt with light biscuit and a spiciness to it. Initial is light bodied, light bready malt, light sweetness, with a faint spice and pepper. A little too watery and weak for me. Needs to pronounce it’s style, not cower in fear and lack flavor. Quenching, but lacking overall. Cavie (1521), Fort Worth, Texas, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Mar 4, 2009 Has a slight taste of burnt barley. The cocoa taste can’t overpower the subtilty of burntness. JustinFromAL (114), Birmingham, Alabama, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 20, 2008 Draft. Pours amber with an off-white head. Carbonated with a yeasty nose. A tad on the sweet side with a light body. Average beer across the board. esjaygee (1600), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 5, 2008 Amber color with a medium off-white head. Light caramel malt aroma. Light malty taste, or perhaps malty taste-less since it was very light on taste. It’s ok, but it’s a little light on taste & smell. nhamilton (72), Cibolo, Texas, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Actually got this a a burger joint. It has a smooth taste and goes down easy enough. However, it did not have any knockout capabilty and is therefore rated as average. GodOfThunder (893), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 31, 2008 On tap at the brewpub... and everywhere in New Orleans. Caramel malt aroma and a fairly strong malty taste. This isnt a bad amber ale. I would call it slightly above average. It goes well with a giant plate of oysters.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 16, 2008 My first Abita rating! There will be many more to come. Caramel aroma with a bit of pine. Poors a clear golden amber, duh. Not much taste, a bit hoppy. Definitely not my favorite of the Abita Brews.
