Whatever floats your boat. I guess it's an acquired taste.

I know a number of people that like it. I think they all have shite taste, though, and it's not just because they like Jockamo.

Wasn't the guy that coined the term maven a big fan Jockamo? I forget his name...

I've noticed that for some reason Abita doesn't vary their styles of beer but fruits instead. I wonder if they have the "know how" to even branch out that much.

I actually know several people that really like Jockamo. Blows me away. It is terrible.



I don't think it's terrible. It is perfectly drinkable. It's just not really an IPA. Terrible is Indian Wells Amnesia IPA or Evil Twin Molotov Cocktail Dipa.

When can we expect an Abita Cider?

Soon. Very soon, i would imagine. Hell they've made strawberry, super strawberry, lemon, satsuma, raspberry, super raspberry, all using basically the same formula, except they add different fruit. Might as well throw a shitty cider in their disappointing repertoire.

I predict this will be another meh IPA. But hey, as long as they keep pumping out those shitty abita advertisements, why try to brew good beer?

It can't be worse than jackamo..... I'll give it a try for sure. Maybe we'll finally be surprised and abita will take all that money they have a brew a great IPA.

Yes. But just sit back and think about the beers the have come out with that involve fruit but don't change styles at all.
