Abita Light

Brewed by Abita Brewing Company
Style: Pale Lager
Covington, Louisiana USA

A ridiculous waste of barley malt, hops, yeast, and the water that it so closely resembles. With a barely detectable sweet malt aroma, this watery drink has a diluted malt flavor with very little in the way of hops. I followed it up with a glass of water, just as refreshing and three dollars cheaper on the menu.

Very pale, almost clear. Not much of a head. Aroma is of stale beer. Not much body. Not much flavor.

Nice pale color, very light flavor, makes for an excellent light beer. Not as bitter as many light lagers.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, pale pilsener golden with a small, white head. Thin aroma of unmalted cereals. Light-bodied, sweetish and sticky with notes of cardboard. No bitterness. So not even Abita could manage to brew a drinkable Light-beer. 060406

Would actually drink this over the Golden. Smells the best of the beers I had in the mix pack, except maybe the Turbodog. Just an okay light lager.

Pours a very clear pale yellow color with almost no head. Aroma is almost non existent sweet straw. Flavor is actually pretty good and almost pilsneresque. Hayish and malty. Overall, not a bad tasting light beer.

Not a bad light beer. A little more flavor than the mass produced, but still not up to the other Abita beers.

You know what you’re getting. Pale yellow color with a very slight murkyness. Nose is fairly clean and polished: sweet (subtle) grains and sugars, actually could stand up next to a few good pilsners with the nose. Tastes clean and light, very polished and unoffensive, which I suppose is the point of these light beers, so with that in mind I guess this does it’s job.
