I like Abita beer. Andygator taste like a premium bud light. That’s my go to.

Seems like the Louisiana equivalent of Shiner Bock or Karbach (which used to be locally owned). It's a premium beer for college students or new beer drinkers, but the taste isn't all that great to be paying much more than a standard domestic.
Exactly. Take anything from abita and put it against grace and grit or ghost in the machine. It’s not even a competition. Abita is just a step up from miller and such. Mid grade at the gas station but charging premium prices.

I just want someone local to make a real, widely available pale lager or pilsner in the traditional style. Not a low cal light beer. Not a canebrake tasting pilsner. Not a dry hopped pilsner. Not a strawberry lager. Not an amber. Just a full-bodied malty traditional barley beer. Preferably in cans.
And GB skater aid is not that. It's thin bodied and overhopped. I don't find Paradise Park to have much body either and it's got some weird huell melon fruity hop.

Abita, while not trash is not the premium beer they think they are. The fact they demand premium prices over say things from parish or great raft is laughable.
Have you seen the production capacity of the three breweries you listed?
Abita far surpasses the other two. When you’re a “craft” brewery with that kind of output, you can charge above the median.

Ingredients are better quality but I agree theyve done a great marketing job. However Blossman guy is personally involved and quite the beer snob so they keep creating new things. I like the recent alpha Gator but their satsuma or lemon should be poured straight in the bogue falaya

Abita was trash 7-8 years ago when I was drinking. Overpriced crap.
Best beer they made was Root Beer.

The two best breweries in LA IMO.
I'm liking Huckleberry Brewery out of Alexandria as well. Their Sandbar Blonde is better than most anything Abita. And as you said Parish is way better than Abita.
Edit: Nola Lemon Basil 7th street wheat is my second favorite "after cutting grass" beer. Only Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy beats it as for as hitting it after working outside all day

Natural Light is the beer you drink during times of high inflation. Abita is the beer you say when didn’t I get a Parish.

But they don't. Abita's flagship beers are $10 at Rouses for a 6pk.
Does Parish even sell 6pks? Their 1 and only flagship is GITM which is $10 for a 4pk.
Abita may be more expensive than Busch and Natty but it's not as bad as some of yall make it out to be and it's much better beer than anything that's $20 for 30pk!

Natural light is not bad. I don’t mind cheap beer at all.

Ummm. Parleaux much? What you're seeking is their specialty.

I did work for them at one time. But I'm just speaking my opinion. Some of you are exaggerating your claims of them being "Premium". They aren't and don't present themselves to be.
However, if you go spend time there and sample their Pilot beers that their Pilot Brewer pumps out on a weekly basis, you'd be shocked at the quality of the products they're putting out.

By far my favorite in the state. Unfortunately I can't always drive 45 minutes each way just to get beer.
