| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 3, 2009 Found this one bottled at Binny’s in St. Charles, Illinois. Bright, copper pour, bubbly, with a medium, foamy off-white head. Slightly sweet, nutty, malty nose. Flavors are typical of the style, a touch of milk chocolate, nuttiness. Soft finish. Not a tremendously flavorful beer but neither is the style.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 19, 2009 Partly cloudy orange color with high carbonation. Bubbly off white head. Aroma of amber malts... Flavor nutty. Not overly nutty, just enough to taste it. Very light body, very close to water gravity. Lightly bitter finish. lowgun1212 (85), Montclair, New Jersey, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 16, 2009 a clear sunny amber with a head disappearing as quick as it came. Smells of sweet honey and nuts, touch of orange, and lemon-lime hop. a very light pecan flavor, a light honey sweetnes, a light bitterness, and not much else. Pleasant flavor but feels like its missing a core. body is light/watery. Ernest (4499), Boulder, Colorado, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 15, 2009 Bottle.
Head is initially small, frothy, off-white, mostly diminishing.
Body is hazy medium amber.
Aroma is moderately malty (roasted nuts, toasted grain/bread, husks), lightly to moderately hoppy (herbs, apricot), with notes of honey and soap.
Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter, slightly husky.
Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
Very watery, thin, and somewhat rough in the mouth, but there are some aspects in the aroma that aren’t too bad. Very good for an Abita product. tokyogoat (543), San Diego, California, USA
| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Poured a dirty mud water brown.
Nose is of dirty peanut shells.
Taste is of even dirtier peanut shells. Ron (1033), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 10, 2009 Pours ruby red with a lacy head and decent bubbles. Aroma is nutty and malty. flavor is sweet and buttery, almost more of a nut brown, probably because of the pecans which makes this one different. . zdk (247), New York, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Dec 9, 2009 pours a nice amber with pretty good head retention. Really smooth, big caramel malt flavor. Aroma is vaguely of nuts, but nothing i can identify as specifically pecan. Mouthfeel is oily... perhaps from the nut oils? Finishes a bit astringent which makes the finish a bit less than satisfying. Really close to being a great beer. VitaminR (442), Colorado, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 29, 2009 Refrigerated pecan pie with buttery flakey crust nose and hints of caramel. Cloudy burnt orange color, small soapy head. Light caramel and cotton candy sweetness, bitterness is steady and makes for a great balance. Big carbonation, light to medium body, nutty sweet finish with some spice hop notes. This was one of those beers I expected to not like and was pleasantly surprised, pecan notes enhance every step of this beer…worth trying.
