12 oz bottle. Pours a clear copper with a large fluffy off white head. Grainy malt aroma with some fruity yeast esters. Carmelized malt flavor with carmelized malt flavor. Bit of grape and some spicey hops. Body is reasonably light with moderate carbonation. Finish is mostly dry with a bit more grape. Okay.

Oct 29, 2008 (bottle): Pours an amber brown color body, clear. Big foamy nearly white head, good lacing, but quickly diminishing. Strong malty sweet aroma, some birch or something. A little licorice on the back. Roasty malty flavor, sweet middle taste. Clean somewhat dry hoppy aftertaste. A hint of some licorice sweetness. Medium body, fizzy. A little bit on the malty side for me.

Oct 26, 2008 (12oz bottle on October 26, 2008) Nice, billowy white head. Clear light-amber color and well carbonated. Light bodied, grainy, and clean. Way easy to drink, and no metallic, yeasty, soapy, or astringent flavors.

Oct 17, 2008 Not horrible, not great either. Good session lager after the first three or four. Slightly sweet, but has a nice bitter element that reminds you that ’this is a beer.’

Oct 16, 2008 My first Abita rating! There will be many more to come. Caramel aroma with a bit of pine. Poors a clear golden amber, duh. Not much taste, a bit hoppy. Definitely not my favorite of the Abita Brews.
