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.

Bottled. Poured orangey with yellow and some fizz. Orangey and almost almondy. Not bad for Abita.

Draft. Incredibly not awesome. Not really a brown ale, more like something that pretended to be one......unsucessfully. Avoid.

Lol, said it’s munich style but not quite. Anyway, bottle, not bad. Not a lot of pop but drinkable enough and acceptable.

Refrigerated 12 oz bottle poured into a glass. Clear light brown with medium white head. Aroma is pecan, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is pecans and malt.

Bottle. This should have been called skunk berry beer. This was not a very good beer. I believe someone needs to go back to the drawing board.

Bottle. In the form of Mardi Gras Bock. It was an ok heller bock. Aroma was like earthy hay with a ever so slight citrus with a touch of skunk. Nice head and lace. Color was a dark yellow. Flavor was not so great. Just average.
