Commercial Description:
Fleur-de-lis Restoration Ale is made with English Pale, Lager, Crystal and Cara Pils malted barley. We liberally hopped and dry hopped our Ale with American Cascade and Centennial hops and fermented it with California Ale yeast. The result is a brilliant gold ale with a rich body, mild bitterness and a snappy fresh citrus hop flavor and aroma.

Bottle; clear gold color; smallish white head. Aroma of grass, honey and fruit. Flavor was very grassy; some bread and a hint of apple. Some hops in the ending; but overall it was not very good.

Has a sweet honey/citrus aroma with a dose of grassy hops and a hint of butterscotch. The body is a cloudy yellow/gold with a slowly diminishing white head. Citrus hops in the fore. A little bit soapy tasting. Hints of lemon zest. Fairly watery in the finish. Kind of blah. Just not much going on to talk about with this one.

From bottle at Louisiana Pizza Kitchen in New Orleans. A very drinkable, grassy, and slightly bitter ale to commemorate the restoration of one of America’s finest cities.

Bottle. Pours light orange with white head. The aroma is very grassy with hints of apples, other faint fruit notes, and straw. The flavor is pretty grassy and apply, but a little bit of hop bitterness redeems it slightly. Toast and apples in the finish, dry aftertaste. Not great.

Aroma of malty, bready, and not any hops. Maybe a little fishy. Had a solid carbonation but not realyl anything else.

Kind of a cross between the Abita Amber Ale and a classic pale ale. Possibly a less raw version of its brother beer Red Ale. Not quite up to the level of its other brother beer Turbodog, but perhaps a little more excitement then the its brother Amber Ale. Of course, as someone who got 9 feet of flood water (St. Bernard Parish) and still homeless since the disaster, this beer holds an emotional place in my heart, and therefore I drink it at establishments whenever I can.

Bottle at Abita Brew Pub. A pretty tasty beer with some hop and fruit flavors. Not bad.

Clear golden, fairly large head with average lacing and retention. Aroma is floral, lemony, hint of grapefruit. Light body, very drinkable. Kinda boring but still decent.
