Moderators dtel Posted January 15, 2007 Moderators Share Posted January 15, 2007 Local , Abita beer was started there because of the spring water, the town is called Abita springs. http://www.abita.com/ AMBER Abita Amber is a Munich style lager brewed with crystal malt and Perle hops. It has a smooth, malty, slightly caramel flavor and a rich amber color. Abita Amber was the first beer offered by the brewery and continues to be our leading seller. It has been voted "best beer" in numerous New Orleans reader polls and is used frequently in recipes of great Louisiana chefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arky Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Root. Amy..Do they distribute A&W (root beer) up north? It's a staple down south. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 They do have A&W up North. About the only kind I had growing up. The Sunset Wheat is one of my favorite Leinenkugel brews. The coriander makes a nice touch. Eldon, A local restaurant here served Abita Springs beers on tap. Used to walk over after work and have one with some buddies before heading home. I liked the Turbo Dog the best, but sometimes the dog would bite. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 OK - here's the roundup...... Amber Ales: Red Tail Ale (Mendocino Brewing Co, Ukiah, CA), Fat Tire Amber Ale (New Belgium Brewing Co, Ft Collins, CO) Stout: Terminator Stout (McMenamin's Brewing, various locations in Oregon) - THE KING of stouts. Wheat: Bell's Oberon Summer Wheat Ale (Bell's Brewery, Comstock, MI) Porter: Black Butte Porter (Deschutes Brewing Co, Bend, OR) Local Favorite: Uncommon Stout (Bent River Brewing Company, Moline, IL) The signature beer of the aforementioned establishment, an excellent stout with the added zip of coffee! I wasn't too much for it in the beginning, but is very habit forming with repeated trials. I think of American lagers as I do Bose: I choose or use them when there is no other choice. I drank alot of Terminator Stouts when I was in Portland and the coast of Organ. It was one of the best Stouts I have had. I also remember a Chocolate Oatmeal Espresso tout which I ordered only because I had never heard of such a thing. Oregon was one of my favorite places when I move it is on the shortlist.

kaiser SET say Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Best beer on the planet bar none[] I have always strived to get my homebrew to taste as good as a Chimay, guess those trappist monks of Belgium have got the jump on me[:|] Shiner Texas is about an hour from Austin and they have a little micro group called Celis who make some really fine brews from a new beer (The White) to a really fine German style triple bock[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Leffe is another great abbey beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I really enjoyed the Celis White but its not in the stores anymore : ( Great river float'n beer. I read the label on the Chimay bottles and realized that the proceeds got to Trappist Monks charity causes. Drink and change the world!

kuisis Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Kaiser Set Celis was founded by the guy that revised the Belgian White beer style Pierre Celis. What is the name of their German Triple bock, I thought they only did belgium style beers like grand cru.??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay481985 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I don't think so.... I remember that it was a regular product. Maybe something syracuse or saratoga root beer... It looked like a real longneck beer glass. Actually I played a nice trick to my R/A at the time I was at the other college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
