3.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Cajun (181) - Lafayette, Louisiana, USA - JUL 24, 2010
Bottle - Simple logo but I like it. Thin white head... aroma of citrus and hay, earthy-yeasty-cheesy (that’s my new word) flavors with hoppy bitterness that’s a bit on the skunk side, however, I like it with something spicy. I’m perhaps biased with this brew, but many factors are involved when tasting and I honestly liked this beer. C’est bon.

Bottle shared at the Houston RB July tasting. Thanks to me. Pale yellow hazy. Nose is yeasty and musty, with a tinge of Belgium yeastiness coming through.Taste is the same, with some hay added in! Body is thinnish and a bit harsh. Overall drinkable though and not a first effort from the new Cajun brewery.

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 Beerbuddha (100) - New Orleans, Louisiana, USA - JUL 1, 2010
Had this one on draft at Avenue Pub.
Appearance: The beer was a nice golden orange with nice white head. Lacing present throughout and creates nice webbing.
Smell: Nice pungent hop aroma with hints of citrus.
Taste: Nicely balanced pale ale. Has a wonderful hop kick which is balanced nicely with the malty sweetness. The hops provide a nice citrus flavor. I could drink this all day.
Mouthfeel: Medium body with medium carbonation.
Overall: This is a very well done pale ale. I originally had a bad experience with this beer in the bottle but on draft it was very drinkable and what one should expect with a pale ale. With this company Louisiana is slowly becoming a serious contender for great breweries in the South.

2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 drpimento (1936) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 28, 2010
Had another of this breweries’ beers a couple of hours ago at a local bar and it was decent. So, I had high hopes for this one. Let down. However, I did get it at a quick mart, so can’t expect too much. Poured with decent white head and some lace. Color is a clear amber. Flavor is light struck and a bit skunky. Hops taste a bit stale too. And maybe oxidized - wet paper. Body is ok and so is carbonation. Finish is like flavor. Wont’ finish the bottle.
