Bottle: Bronze, light head and lacing. Nose of crystal malt, light sweetness and vaguely hopped. The flavor is toasty, sweet, caramel and kinda bland for the style. Quite boring, in fact.

Cloudy orangish-red brew small head. Rich caramel malty aroma with notes of fruit (cherry). Smooth drink, kind of watery, very malty sweet. Very easy to drink. Not bad, not great, would definitely drink over BMC.

Bottle. Bronze color with a small off white head. Sweet, almost sour aroma. Sweet caramel flavor that quickly gives way to a plain carbonated water taste. Drinks easy. Not bad, but nothing special. B

There are a few products of Abita I enjoy, but this really isn’t one of them. Awfully light tasting (which can be a good thing depending on your mood) with not much anything going for it either way. I thought it was a bit minerally but it was light as I mentioned with a sweet malty nose. Decent appearance. Not much else.

Bottle. Light amber in color. Cyrstal clear. Small off-white head, but it lasts.Almost a sour nose, but not in a bad way. [ :) ] Nice, toasty maltiness, enough hops to balance. Very smooth. Better in it’s style than Turbodog is in it’s.

Sampled this at the Great Decatur Beer Tasting Festival. nasty. golden color with a distinct corn aroma. And that’s about it. Do think I’ll try this again.

Nice amber color. More sour than sweet. Nothing special, but more flavor than many lagers.

Pretty forgettable. Reminds me of liquid cardboard. The taste is rather like a cola that you get from a machine that has almost completely ran out of syrup. Pass.
