2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pint on tap, pours a copper-golden color with moderate head, leaves some lacing on the glass. Aroma is extremely malty with a little caramel, especially as the drink wears on. Taste is also malty and sweet and does a good job of masking the high alcohol content. Palate is very smooth and no real aftertaste. No real hop character noted at any time. Not a bad beer if you like them malty.

Bottle labeled as Mardi Gras Bock. Pours a clear gold/orange with a pretty decent head that spills over the sides of the glass and causes a little cussing before cleanup. Aromas are sweet and doughy, with little evidence of a heavy hops presence. Flavor is a little syrupy sweet... lots of honey and dough, a little bit of a herbal presence, some fruit (pears) and a hint of abv.

Rejoice, another Abita beer. So this is is supposed to put one in the festive mood of mardi gras?
Pours a clear amberish, white head.
Aroma, pale malts, hops and a sweet doughy malt nose as the beer warms up a bit.
Flavor, bitter/grassy hops, light caramel and mild toasted malt flavors, cardboard mouthfeel that is one dimensional except for the faint touch of doughy palate.
