Abita Jockamo IPA

Brewed by Abita Brewing Company
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Covington, Louisiana USA

Serve in Shaker, Tulip

Poured a copper orange with a small amount of head. Malts, caramel, slightly floral aroma. The taste is a little strange, it tastes of dirt, grass, sour fruit, and a very slight bitterness. I’m not fond of the taste of this one at all or the smell. Very weird and unique IPA.

12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Hazy copper with flat head and a little lace. Toasted caramel and mild citrus aroma. Toasted caramel, nicely understated fruit, something I don’t recognize, and mild finishing fizzy bitterness. Medium body. Drinkable but far from impressive. Middle of the road. re-rate: as it warms it starts to taste like orange syrup. Kinda gross.

Clear copper color with small head. Caramel, grains, citrus and hops. Flavor is more malty that I was hoping for, but not bad.

(12oz. bottle) Pours a clear golden body with a small off-white head. Aroma of caramel, toasted grain, light cocoa, toffee, grass, mango, and citrus. Flavor of caramel malt, light cocoa, and hops (grass, citrus).

lightly cloudy copper body with orange highlight, average white head, and fair lacing; bright, toasted flavor with a basic balance between malts and hops; somewhat sharp palate; decent IPA.

Location: Purchased at a liquor store in Rockville. Fall ’08

Overall Impression: Ok IPA, not great, but definately something I would drink again. Certainly not near the top of its style.

Bottle: Poured a copper orange with a off white cream head. Aroma is fruit and malts. Taste is mild malts and hops.

pours light copper with white head. Aroma is fruity/hoppy with light malts/caramel and strong citrus nose. Taste was soapy hoppy with plenty of caramel malts characteristics. Finish with light bitter citrus touch, medium carbonation.
