Never been much on Abita, but they have so many different styles maybe I'm drinking the wrong ones???

I liked Restoration Ale and Purple Haze. The rest weren't really worth a second try.

For their regular beers I like the andygator. Amber is my standard around the house.

The tap houses rotate a select choice every two months or so and these are always outstanding. These would be my favorite. I remember a chocolate stout once and another pretty hoppy beer than slmost made you think it was not Abita. This is where they give the brew master the ok to play around.

To me this is like picking your favorite child. I like them all with the exception of the Abey and Satsuma.

I love all of their seasonals, if I had to rank them,
Bock, Christmas, Wheat, Red, Fall Fest, Strawberry, Pecan.

For the regulars:
Turbodog, IPA, Restoration, Golden, Amber, Haze

Abita Strawberry is one of my alltime favorite beers, but I haven't been able to find anywhere in Houston that sells it

Being in Shreveport, the seasonal stuff is hard to find.

I've only had Purplehaze, Andygator, Amber, and the Satsuma.

Out of those, Purplehaze was my favorite, but it wasn't really anything special.

Restoration is pretty decent and the IPA is decent for a Pale Ale. But none of their stuff is what I would consider great.

My favorite gulper: Purple Haze (Andygator is up there, but I can't gulp as much of that).

My favorite sipper: Turbodog
