Abita Andygator®, a creature of the swamp, is a unique, high-gravity brew made with pilsner malt, German lager yeast, and German Perle hops. Unlike other high-gravity brews, Andygator® is fermented to a dry finish with a slightly sweet flavor and subtle fruit aroma. Reaching an alcohol strength of 8% by volume, it is a Helles Doppelbock. You might find it goes well with fried foods. It pairs well with just about anything made with crawfish. Some like it with a robust sandwich. Andygator® is also a good aperitif and easily pairs with Gorgonzola and creamy blue cheeses. Because of the high alcohol content, be cautious — sip it for the most enjoyment.

650 ml bottle. Golden body with a nice, dense white head. Aroma is quite mild but pleasant, fruit, flowers and slightly perfumed. Flavor is mild malty, fruity, a bit sweet and moderate bitter. Decent without being great.

On tap at Brewforia in Meridian, ID. Clear light golden color, rather pilsnerish. Big fluffy white head, and lingering lacing. Light malt aroma with a litle cereal and honey. Very Livy and somewhat sweet flavors. Some flowery notes and a little czech hop in there as well.

On tap in Nashville, in a plastic cup, at the Wow Cafe (watching UFC). Pours a golden-amber colour with a white head that is thin and disappears quickly. Aroma is a decent mix of biscuit and caramel malts. The taste was a bit more interesting (and special). Nice flavours of darker red apples with a little alcohol warmth (but no burns). Notes of sweet malts were present as well. A pretty interesting Heller Bock.

Bottled at Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm. Clear golden, brief head. Having had less favourable experiences with other Abita beers I approached this with some caution. I was greeted by deep buttery malt, grass and some fruitiness. It came out pleasantly dry with a well built rounded body. Some husky buttery malt dominates the flavours until a light salty bitterish finish with a slight alcohol warmth. A restrained and well balanced heller bock, much more authentic than expected and with a really good malt profile.

Sampled on draft at D’s in Monroeville PA this beer poured a dark golden color with a medium sized soapy white head. The aroma was sweet, tangy, grape and pear. The flavor was tangy and sweet with notes of candied pear and table sugar. The finish was long, tangy and sweet. Full body. Simple but quite tasty.
