Not much of a fan of this one; there is very little to react to within this bottle.
Appearance was very pale and clear, and looked more Bud Light than it did pale ale. There was no aroma at all. Flavor was also very faint; what there was reminded me a "honey lager" like Tyranena Three Blonde’s or Sleeman’s Honey Blonde, and these are not favorable comparisons. Some faint sweetness but no malt or hop character. Mouthfeel was unremarkable.
I would not recommend this beer.
I had a bottle of this at the New Orleans d.b.a.

Jul 3, 2008 12 oz bottle. Medium to light amber pour with a decent small head and some lace. Aroma is biscuity, pale malts, nice fresh baked bread, toast, and some nice floral hops- seemed fresh. Pale malts balanced with a nice herbal and flowery hops- clean and crisp finish and a light hop bitterness. nothing crazy, but just a solid pale ale.

Jun 18, 2008 12 oz bottle...pours amber w/ a small white head, that fade quickly. Aromas of citrus, malts, caramel, florals. The flavor was light flavored citrusy hops, and a touch of caramel malts. The beer is really light w/o being watery...It is very sessionable as the dry, floral finish begs for continued sipping. Great session beer from Abita!

Jun 12, 2008 Bottle, thanks Deepsouth!! Pours a slightly cloudy yellow color with a medium white head. Aroma is of malts,hops and something funky. Flavor is a tad better than the aroma. Malty and hops are present...no complexity but as with most Abita beers I find it prett smooth.

Jun 5, 2008 12 oz bottle, labeled as Abita Restoration Pale Ale. Lightly hazed gold with an off white head. Caramel and wood nose, lightly floral, mild sweet orange. Light caramel and orange, some mild bread and butter. Finish transitions quickly to a dry floral tone. Not a winner.

May 27, 2008 Gold, creamy white head. Faint toasty citrus aromas rest on light floral caramel-like notes. Light floral citrus hops balance on soft sweet toasty malts. Just a kiss of caramel rounds it out. Light bodied, light carbonation, crisp, light bittersweet finish. Drinkable...
