yeah, tastes like swamp water. Light hops and kinda dry. Not much of a lager fan and this beer doesn’t help. Draft on my journey at lagers in metarie, LA

Jul 15, 2008 The waitress at the restaurant on Bourbon St. told me this was like corona. Ok, it really didn’t have much of a taste, or a too thick of a mouthfeel, but it wasn’t that bad. Though, it wasn’t good either. I couldn’t detect the alcohol. I’m really surprised this is a doppelbock. I fact, I just thought it was a pale lager of some sort.

Jul 10, 2008 I really want to like Abita beers because I love NOLA and what they’re doing there, but most are average or below. This one is below.

Jun 28, 2008 The bar I drank this at in Scranton PA - told me it was a 6.2% barley wine. I told them it was the weakest one on the planet. Nevertheless, its a decent brew. Smooth and easy drinking.

Jun 13, 2008 On draft at Acme Oyster House in New Orleans. Good IPA style brew. I would not consider this a doppelbock--it’s simply not malty. Very good though.

Apr 5, 2008 Draught in plastic cup from Beer Fest International Beer House on Bourbon Street; drank while strolling down Bourbon Street. Mild sweet tang aroma. Hints of a brown sour ale with bit of oaky tang. Or maybe the lines aren’t clear. Reminds me of a bruin or tangy dubbel. Medium amber golden clear with a thin off-white lacing head. Medium watery body with medium carbonation. Starts sweet with a pretty good bruin malt depth. Light woody-cherry tang. Dry mild nutty light bitter finish. Decent little ale. Good punch to this one, or maybe I just needed dinner. Engine No. 9 just pulled out on a call from the station at Decatur and Esplanade.
