Commercial Description:
The newest Abita brew takes its name and inspiration from the Mardi Gras Indians of New Orleans. Looking for Indians on Mardi Gras Day is a tradition for many New Orleans families. A cultural phenomenon familiar to residents of the Crescent City, the Mardi Gras Indians are not well known to outsiders and Abita is proud to help share their story with the world.

Nice hoppy aroma. Pours a slightly hazy orange/amber with a thin white head. Nice caramel malts to start with, then a bit of bitterness to balance it out. Very drinkable.

Another beer from Sean. Even though I can buy these locally, I chose to have Sean send me one because I felt sorry for him since he lives in Nashville. Maybe he will waste his money on a new Paul Gay Smith guitar. This one pours out a brown color, without much of a head. Sweet and fruity smelling with some hops infused. Taste is decent, smooth and refreshing. Kind of hoppy, but not a lot. Interesting enough, but not something I would want to drink a lot of.

Bottled. Better than average beer but not really a great IPA. The bitterness was a little harsh and flat. No real characteristic to the bitterness, just seemed like bitterness for bitterness sake. Better than a regular beer though.

Bottle from Whole foods. Pours nice copper color, very thin head. Aroma of yeast and hop, flavor is much better, decently hopped and well carbonated. A refreshing brew that was surprisingly better than I expected.

Tallahassee, Fl. - Leon Pub - 12 oz bottle. Bright orange pour with a thin, but sticky white head. Odd aroma - some toe jam , a bit of peach marmalade. Flavor is a bit muddled with some sticky apricot notes, some cake mix sweetness and maple syrup. Missing that citrusy bite usually associated with IPAs. Mouthfeel is thick enough. Misses the mark just slightly.

Pours a lighter amber with mildly frothy head, some lacing. Nose of sticky caramel malts, some piney residue. More pine on the palate, orange juice citrus character, ends somewhat wooden with a very mild bitterness. A decent IPA.
