Nov 2, 2009 Bottle at NOLA in Palo Alto. Pours a mostly clear amber color with a creamy one-finger white head. Aroma is caramel malt, pecan’ and spice. Flavor is somewhat mild but pleasant with caramel malt, pecans, bread, and some earthy hop bitterness. Medium-light body with a fairly smooth palate and soft carbonation. Not too exciting, but pretty good overall.

Nov 1, 2009 Clear orange red pour. Smells very musty and has an old fart quality. This smells horrible. Taste has some nut quality to it with a malty backbone as well. Bitter finish. This has GOT to be a bad bottle. I mean, no one else lists old fart in their rating! Slightly improves as it warms.

Nov 1, 2009 Bottle. Very watered down ale with little spice to be called harvest ale. Only pecan to found was in the aroma. Not so great.

Oct 29, 2009 Mahogany color with decent head; no lace. Aroma is nutty with just a touch of malty sweetness and spice. Medium bodied beer with modest maltiness. Well balanced and clean finish. Not particularly exciting...good session beer though. Liked it more than I was expecting.

Oct 29, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours an off white head of good duration, with some lacing, over a slightly cloudy amber (SRM 10) body....nose is light malts (toffee), finishing with pecan.....taste is light malts with a minimal nutty finish and light bitterness....mouth feel is medium, carbonation also. The pecan nose was the high point of this beer for me. The rest was rather nondescript.

Oct 28, 2009 I like a lot of Abita brews and in the same regard dislike a few. This one was just okay but I couldnt tell a whole lot of difference between it and the Abita Amber. The taste of pecan was noticed with some sips and non existent with others. For a Pecan brew I prefer Lazy Magnolia. Sacrelgious for a LA bouy but the Pecan from MS is better.

Oct 23, 2009 I enjoyed this beer. Pour from bottle at the Manchester Pub in NYC. Nice amber color with a beige head. Roasted malt aroma. Flavor was modestly sweet, malty, with hints of pecan and caramel. Smooth and slightly creamy. Clean finish and pleasant aftertaste.
