Anyway, not much time left. So this is going to be quick. Bottom line - the beer nice. It pours a nice golden almost redish tint. It has a hazy unfiltered look to it that I always love in a bottled beer. I'm probably drinking it a few degrees colder then it should be but refreshing none the less. When you take a whiff of this one you get a hint of the hops used in the beer but I don't get a lot more for it. The taste is a little light for a pale ale. It is refreshing and crisp for sure. It has sort of a orange / grapefruit citrusness to it. I like this beer because it doesn't SCREAM hops but you can tell their presence is accounted for. The malty sweetness does support this beer nicely. It is a medium body drinker which makes it nice to have 2 or 3 of these with no problem.
One nice note about this beer was the reason it was brewed - the bottle states: "This ale was created after back-to-back hurricanes devastated Louisiana. With your help the Abita Brewing Company raised over $550,000 for hurricane relief." I love it when beer does good for the community. I hear by state if/when I ever get involved in the brew industry it will be in an attempt to help the community that it is served in. That is a great reason to brew beer. Thanks for listening. Have a good night.
