2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
There is absolutely nothing special about this product, especially to justify the eight bucks for a six pack. Standard lager coloration and aroma, not bad. Well carbonated, refreshing, but bland. Usually smaller breweries kill you with hops, but Abita overcompensates in their attempt to avoid that charge.

Aroma is mildly sweet grains. The flavor is mildly sweet malts, a hint of vegetables and a hint of hops in the finish.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Light golden, small and fully diminishing head. Light to moderate, malty - lightly grainy and lightly sweetish aroma, light grassy hoppyness. Body light to medium, malty - lightly grainy and lightly sweetish, light grassy hoppyness. Finish is short to average, malty and lightly sweetish, light grassy hoppyness. Watery lager - that´s it.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
4/16/12. 12oz bottle. Slightly hazed golden pour with a small off-white head that fades and barely laces. The aroma is 90% creamed corn with touches of wheat malt and bread. Soft, bready flavor with small punches of orange and tart lemon, but not a lot. Very plain. Meh.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Hazy golden pour a very mild hop and smoke aroma. Not a lot going on. The body was too thin for my taste with a slight skunk finish.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle - pale yellow and slightly cloudy. Has a light citrus taste to it and it has a watered down finish. Nothing special about this beer.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Reviewed from notes (2008).
A: Thin straw yellow color with a non existant head...
S: Faint malt aroma with a passing hop highlight
T: The taste matches the aroma exactly... not terribly complex... but pleasant malt flavors nonetheless
M: Smooth and refreshing... light-medium body.. medium carbonation
O: An ok session beer.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
12 oz bottle. Pours clear yellow with small white head. The aroma is subtle and malty with some fruity notes. The flavor is light crackery malt with a little bit of grassy hops. Finish is a tad watery. Smells better than it tastes.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled sample. Pale gold in colour with strong carbonation. Aromas are of pilsner malt, clover honey, white bread dough, and a touch of earthy hops. Muted pilsner malt and mineral flavour, along with some sulfur and grass. Mouthfeel starts creamy before a clean mineral finish on the back end. Nothing special, but not all that bad either.
1.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
Bottle from sprint mart. Pours dark golden with a thin white head that goes poof as soon as you turn your back. Not much on the nose except a bit of corn. pretty bland taste, slightly metallic finish.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 8/20
12oz bottle, purchased from Party Source for $1.45. Totally clear lightish yellow color, good head fading quickly to minimal, some lace. I just had the Abita Light before this, which I was pleasantly suprised with, but this one isn’t doing the same thing for me. It lacks that pleasant citrusy sweetness, this one is just light skunk, bread, water (although I am seeing the hint of spicy hotness that someone else suggested). Some bitter taste. Drinkable, with a good texture and crisp, smooth carbonation. Noticable aftertaste, which is kind of unfortunate.
