First released more than 30 years ago, Faubourg Blackened Voodoo is a delicious dark lager crafted in the traditions of the great German dunkels that inspired it. Our brewers skillfully balance five premium roasted barley malts with two hop varieties to create a dark, mysterious brew known for its bewitching character and magical spirit.

Bottle from Harvard’s in Augusta. Pours dark reddish brown color with tan head. Aromas of toasted malts and some cereal. Similar flavors with some fruitiness. Light to medium body with average carbonation.

Dark roasted malt aroma wih hints of fig and raisin. Clear brown, thin head, streams of carbonation. Watery, lightly sweet malt and fig. Balance and flavor improves upon warming, with neutral wood/nut notes replacing the sweetness. Slight cardboard finish. Weak overall and a poor representative of the style.

Melted caramel in color with a rocky, beige head. Sweet caramel aroma, light chocolate, some nuts. Silky smooth body even though the massive head led me to believe it would be rather carbonated. Caramel flavored. Light brown sugar and the faintest bit of cocoa. Super easy to swig and I didn’t realize I had downed 3/4 of it after just a couple gulps. It’s a decent brew, but nothing outstanding.

Bottle. Cola colored body with a off-white head. Aroma of coffee, currant, leather, dirt, metal and cocoa powder. Taste is grainy, light fruit, dirt, roast and leather. Not outstanding. Dry body and pretty bubbly.

Doing my beer tour of Louisiana beers, and have yet to find anything decent from this state. Pours amber with off-white head. Aroma of pale malts, dark malts with buttery/ caramel notes, not bad, just plenty of malts. Taste, dark roasted malts with hoppy bitterness. Good thing they added the dakr malts otherwise this beer would have been quite terrible.

Bottle. Poured darker brow with thick lasting white head. Aroma of malt and butter. Some lacing. Flavour of malt and butter. Flat finish. Doesn’t measure up to the stadards of a good schwarzbier. It’s possible the change in venue has affected the beer. I’ll have to try it again once is’s brewed at the old stand. Until then, I’ll avoid Dixie beers.
