Description
The Abita Brewing Company is nestled in the piney woods 30 miles north of New Orleans. In its first year, the brewery produced 1,500 barrels of beer. We had no idea what we started. Customers loved our beer! By 1994, we outgrew the original site (now our 100-seat brew pub) and moved up the road to a larger facility to keep up with demand.
We brew more than 125,000 barrels of beer and 13,500 barrels of soda of in our state-of-the-art brewing facility. Our lagers and ales are brewed in small batches, hand-crafted by a team of dedicated workers with only the highest ideals of quality. This pride, along with our brewing process, is what creates our great brews.
We are privately owned and operated by local shareholders, many who have been with us since day one.

Mediocre beer. The pecan flavor tastes more like the “pith” than the meat. Thin body, moderate carbonation. Slightly astringent on the finish.

Nice big, chunky IPA, big notes of orange marmalade and peach and pineapple followed by caramel and pine. Very drinkable, nice surprise from Abita.

Very relaxed, mild, American-style pilsner, with a mix of sweet grain, straw, and hints of lemon on top of a mild floral bitterness and a touch of skunkiness. Weird that they chose this style and recipe for such a big anniversary beer.

Pours a pale golden with a thin white head. Aroma of strawberry ice cream. Taste has more artificial strawberry flavoring. Palate has much of the same. Ok.

Pours a slightly reddish amber with a thin white head. Aroma of sweetened malt. Taste has mildly smoked malted barely, some residual sweetness. Palate is mildly herbal, lingering malt, sweet. Good.

Pours a mildly hazy yellow with a thin frothy white head. Aroma of tropical notes, pineapple, mild spice. Taste has odd pine notes overlain on a fairly tropical malt base, herbal. Palate has lingering pineapple, fermented mango, Belgian yeast. Lots of Belgian yeast. Interesting.

Clear amber body, thin cream head. Big caramel and toffee nose. Sweet, toasty body with brown sugar, tobacco, and prune. A solid, tasty bock.

Bottle shared on the bus during RBWG 2015. Cheers! Pours clear, deep brown with a creamy, tan head. Big sweet flavour with notes of toasted bread, light vanilla, chocolate. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Tasty finish, more chocolate, creamy vanilla. Good stuff.

Bottle. Hazy gold, white head. Melon, tropical fruit, mango, subdued for a DIPA. Honestly not that bad for an Abita beer, lol.
