Beer Review: Abita Turbodog

I got the Abita Brewing Co. Party Pack for a Christmas gift this past weekend. This was the first beer I tried from the case.

Serving Type: Bottle

ABV: 5.6 percent

Appearance: Turbodog is a really dark beer. It's almost as dark as a stout. There are also tones of brown throughout the brew and in the head, which is very foamy after the pour.

Smell: I picked up plenty of chocolate and malts. Neither smell was very potent though. Reminded me of a mug of coffee.

Taste: I tasted more of the malts in Turbodog than anything else. The entire beer has a slight taste of being roasted. I wasn't particularly sure if it was the malts or some type of nut that was providing the roasting flavor.

Overall Rating:   

This was a pleasant drink on Christmas Eve. I had it prior to dinner. The next one I open will definitely be with a meal.
