Abita hasn't brewed anything that compares to those two with the exception of the Oyster Stout and that one never got bottled and it wasn't even really their beer.


I was thinking the Oyster Stout and the select Oatmeal Stout from 5ish years ago was phenomenal as well. Or maybe my mind is playing tricks on me.

I do remember that oatmeal stout. It was pretty good. But 5 years ago, I had fewer good beers to compare it to.

Right, I just remember making a few extra trips to the Chimes that month to drink it some more.

Yep. I've got a 750ml bottle of the original version of that oyster stout just waiting until it cools off. It just baffles me why they won't do a limited bottling of their Selects.


Please share. I never got to try it.

I still have a few... not sure when I'll be back to TX though.

No IPAs though so I doubt any get brought out tonight unless it's as an appetizer or palate cleanser.

Never heard of that one... but hell yeah I'd be interested.

Sounds like we need to plan a stout tasting for late fall.
