Apr 16, 2007 Updated: Apr 24, 2008seemed to me to be an imitation irish ale of some sort. had it on tap in manhattan (52nd st & 9th ave) cheap busybeer flavor. barley,burnt wheat and ....nuttin.red beer usually sucks. SOFT SILKY WITH A NICE HOP AROMA OUT OF THE BOTTLE THAT hoppiness dissapears quickly. a little dank tasting not as bad as i originaly said.

Apr 12, 2007 It has a definite smell of malt and a bit of a burnt palate. I did not like the finish either. I felt it should have had a bigger mouthfeel!

Apr 3, 2007 Bottle poured a clear amber with a small dissapating white head. Aromas of sweet malt, carmel and light earthiness. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of toasted malt, carmel, spicy hops and a hint of earthiness with a smooth malty finish.

Mar 27, 2007 Bottle: Pale caramel, orange hues, moderate off-white head, fizzy, sparce lacing, light carbonation. Grainy nose, diacytl, more graininess. Imagine that, nasty ass rabbit food like grain flavor. This totally reminds me of rabbit food. I don’t know if this is off, or right on target based on others reviews. Moderate body, slightly sticky mouthfeel. Some caramel and bready notes on the finish, but still remains quite grainy with a slight does of diacytl. Not one of your better Amber Ales.

Mar 19, 2007 The color was good when poured into a glass, but the flavor is watered down. I was disappointed in this offering from Abita having had many of their other brews.

Feb 22, 2007 This was very bad...after i ordered it the at the Hard Rock in New Orleans informed me that this was her least favorite Abita. I’ve got to agree. She directed me to a bar down the street with all sorts of good beer, so I appreciate that. This isn’t much of anything though....a hint of caramel, bad water, and not much else.

Feb 21, 2007 better out of the tap than the bottle. not too overwhleming or heavy. relatively light for an amber. not bad by any stretch of the imagination, and refreshing on a hot and humid new orleans day.

Feb 21, 2007 Bottle, light sweetnotes, on the nose, but not much carmel. A light copper color, but not amber. Wow pretty lacking, I really like this style and this falls quite short in my opinion. If you want to be a semi macro, at least check out Bob’s 47. Watery, very watery for the style. Not much at all going on. Not terrible by anymeans but quite boring.
