Commercial Description:
It may sound nuts, but most ales with nutty flavors or aromas are made without any real nuts. Abita Pecan Harvest Ale is made with real Louisiana pecans. The natural oils from the nuts give the ale a light pecan finish and aroma. It’s wonderful paired up with both red meats and seafood - and no suprise it’s great with nuts too. Abita Pecan Harvest Ale, crack one open for yourself today.

Bottle poured a clear amber with a lasting creamy amber head. Aromas of carmel, pecans and light earthiness. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of carmel, light pecan and a hint of earthiness with a crisp finish.

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.

Bottle enjoyed high in the N. CO mountains @ elk camp. Nose is nothingmuch, caramel malts, not much in the way of the pecan. Taste is pleasantly sweet/bitter, hints of pecan show up only in the end. Finish gets a little harsh as it warms, but overall a good beer, though not as "pecan-y" as would be expected.

Bottle. Good nutty pecan aroma along with some sweet malts. Golden/Orange body with white head. Moderate sweet malt presence along with roasted pecan’s in the mix. Easy drinkable brew.

Strong aroma of pecan and caramel (pecan pie) ; golden orange color; clear; frothy head with good lacing; Initially sweet on the tongue, but goes sour mid-palate. Palate is on the thin side with an abrubt, bitter finish. The aroma of this beer is fantastic, however, the mouthfeel and finish do not live up to expectation.

Pours a clear reddish-brown with a small, slightly off white head. Nose consists of notes of nut and alcohol. Simple taste of nutty pecan, somewhat woody flavor. Thin, bitter finish. Yay Abita, good brew.

Bottle pours amber little head. Sweet nut aroma. Nothing much with flavor but leaves tongue dry.

Very bubbly. Not that impressed with the up front taste. It does however, have a good after taste. This would most likely taste better if consumed with food.
