Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Excellent brew. I found this in Wisconsin. It had a nice dark brown appearance with a thick creamy tan head. The taste was very smooth and you can detect a little molasses in it. I cant wait to try more Abita brews. It is up their with Petes Wicked Brown Ale and Firehouse Brown Cow Ale.

Bottle. Black with a small head. Very nice aroma of chocolate. The taste is sweet with notes of moleasses chocolate and maybe some caramel. Little watery, but overall not a bad brew

Almost no noticeable aroma. Soapy head. Dark brown color. Tastes of caramel, molasses and a hint of chocolate. Nice beer!
