A mediocre porter. Malty aroma and taste. Pours dark. I don’t know I enjoyed this one when I was younger but not anymore.

Pours dark brown but clear, quick dissipating head. Aroma is a bit medicinal and somewhat toasty. Tastes roasted with a bit of medium caramel. Aftertaste hints at dark chocolate and also a bit astringent. An example of a Brown ale that should be in the lower 50%.

Iphonephan (1228) - Virginia, USA - MAY 5, 2013
From a 12 oz bottle served in New Awlins. Pours almost black with an off white head. Aroma of cocoa. Flavors of mild chocolate with a distinct hoppy bite. Bitter finish.

craig220 (289) - Crofton, Maryland, USA - MAY 2, 2013
Poured a deep black/brown color with a medium light tan head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, and nuts. Taste is chocolate, nutty, coffee, and a sweet finish. Could use some more body because, like most of their beers, it’s a bit watery.

jcos (1176) - Maryland, USA - APR 24, 2013
Location/Date:Bottle on April 23rd, 2013.

Appearance: Pours a dark opaque with brown head.
Aroma: Aroma of chocolate, some caramel.
Taste: Light bitterness, nutty, faint caramel.
Palate:Light body, as it must be the Abita water.

Summary: A decent brown ale. I’m always amazed at the lightness of Abita’s brews, probably due to their water. Makes for an interesting variance.

MikeJslc (474) - Utah, USA - APR 18, 2013
Dark brown, clear, tan head. aroma of bready/biscuity malt, cocoa, a little leather. Flavor is nutty, dark bread crusts, touch of toffee, an earthy note, a little cardboard in there. On the thin side overall, but flavorful. woody,

On draught at Screen Door. Dark brown color. Aroma of dark roasted malts. Taste is roasty, toasty, with a bit of grape juice flavor. Really smooth.
