bottle - The schnozberries taste like schnozberries! I had to say it. I’ve written enough reviews where I state the blindingly obvious and I’m going to do so again. Yep, this beer smells and tastes of strawberries. It pours slightly hazy yellow with a one finger head. The strawberries aren’t overpowering, but the beer they’ve been added to is quite light so it doesn’t take much to dominate the flavor. It has a light body and is fairly refreshing. Not bad.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is deffinatly berry with some vanilla. Flavor is where this goes down hill. Very light and watery all around. I detect almost no berry what so ever. Pretty light effort on this one.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a caramel-amber color with a large caramel head. The aroma was lightly sweet, fruity and resiny. The flavor was bitter grapefruit with a mild dry malt base. The finish was bitter floral hops. Too dry for my taste.

Not too great. Large, frothy, white head. Ever so slight haze to the yellow body. Aroma = grass + strawberry + cream. Tastes like strawberry yogurt with some fizziness.

Mild piny turpentine aroma. Yellow brown orange with a slight haze. Thin squeamish creamish head. Tastes like fresh ground up sappy pine cones and green grapefruits. . Bitter medicine. Finish that lasts for what seems forever. Just as offensive as any IPA and borders on IIPA territory. Very impressive for Abita. Has legs!

Different from other brown ales that I have had before. Large, light brown, creamy haead. Body hue is somewhere between a dark red and a dark brown. Good retention and lacing. Smell is of butter, hay and toasted malt as far as I can tell. Taste is an odd mix of celery, floral hops and some chocolatey malts. Goes down alright, with a bit too many bubbles.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. The aroma is hoppy with citrus. The taste is very bitter with citrus and pine and a smooth finish. Easy to drink a good pale ale from Abita.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a medium white head that diminishes quickly. Sticky lacing on the glass. The aroma is a good balance of malt and hops with slight caramel. The taste is a light hop with a bitter finish. A decent amber from Abita.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small off white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is a strong strawberry. The taste is a watery strawberry and a sweet finish. Not too much with this one.
