GKillian (525) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - NOV 25, 2010
Pours amber with thin off-white head and some lacing. Notes of caramel and vanilla. Well balanced taste that is crisp and sessionable.

rougeau13 (1608) - Texas, USA - NOV 9, 2010
Very pale, clear, orange-amber. Aroma of light malt and bread. Taste is ok, but really weak, just watered down malts and light sugar. Thin and a little buttery. Better than most pale lagers, but seriously unimpressive.

Damico (1920) - Royersford, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 17, 2010
The beer pours light amber golden with a nice foamy and creamy head. The aroma is light, a bit sweet and crisp. The flavor of a lightly bittered crisp marzen with not much else going on.

thegreenrooster (2807) - St.louis, Missouri, USA - OCT 16, 2010
Pour is an amber with a large white head. Aroma is of crystal malts and not much else. Flavor is is again more crystal malt with a little nutty aftertaste. Un-exciting and fair at best.

Abita Fall Fest is a clear, deep golden beer with a thin off white head that has good retention and lacing. There’s not really much aroma, aside from some light grain. It’s medium-light bodied and a little watery. It’s pretty smooth with a watery finish. It leaves the mouth clean. It’s pretty well balanced. There’s a bit of an adjunct flavor going on. It tastes a little bready and a little yeasty. Overall, the flavor is too weak to really dig into. This would be refreshing as a summer beer, maybe. It just... tastes like "beer".

Bottle To Pint Glass. Carmelly aroma, Amber in color. Taste has a moderate hoppy flavor but nothing overboard. Not the best beer in the world but I would win again.
