Abita Spring IPA

Abita Spring IPA

STYLE: American IPA
STATS: 6.2% ABV

Poured from a growler with a golden-orange in color and a frothy white head. The head stayed throughout the duration of the beer. That’s about all the only good thing I have to say. The nose is pretty one dimensional, some sweetness there. Citrus smells along with hops. Nothing there in as far as taste. Very light and not very good in my opinion. It didn’t have a bad flavor, it just didn’t have much of a flavor at all.

RATER: Che - RATE: 1.7/5

STATS: 8% ABV / 25 IBU

They had an Abita growler giveaway at my local beer spot so I decided to give this a try. It pours as an ultra clear, golden color w/ a white, whispy foam head. A very light, sweet apple smell. Pretty standard lager taste and the alcohol only slightly comes through. Nothing special about this beer but it's still better than most non-craft brews.

Pours cloudy gold with an off white head. You can get some of that high alcohol sense, sweetness, and hoppy. You get some spicy and fruitiness in there from the dry hops. Taste. Malty, hint of caramel, hops, high alcohol. It goes down smooth and leaves a hint of bitterness.

RATER: Che - RATE: 3.5/5

The beer pours cloudy, gold with an off-white head. It smells of high alcohol content with a bit of sweetness and hoppy. You also pick up some spicy and fruitiness in there due to the dry hops. Tastes malty with a hint of caramel, hops, & high alcohol. It goes down smooth and leaves a hint of bitterness.
