Beer 231 - Abita Golden (3.5 stars out of 5)

Brewed and bottled by Abita Brewing Co, Abita Springs, LA. This is another of the beers bought at Walmart in Lake Charles, LA when we were visiting David.  This was drink at home on Saturday afternoon February 26th with a nutrisystems pizza for lunch after a long morning driving to the Fort Bend Recycling center since Katy has not yet got with the program with their own recycling center.  Some day I will follow up on this and find out why Katy does not actively support recycling.  After the recycling center there were visits to Walmart for a few things we needed in the pantry, to HEB for some more beers from their excellent "make your own six pack " rack as well as sparkling water that Walmart was out of then to Lowes for a composting bin and a new workbench and finally Petsmart for Polo's letter and can food for Tiger.

the web site says "Golden is a crisp, clean continental lager. Just four ingredients are all it takes: American malt, Mt. Hood hops, German lager yeast and pure Abita Springs water. As the name implies, Abita Golden has a brilliant gold color. Its flavor makes this light lager the perfect match for Louisiana Creole food.
Both Abita Light and Abita Golden go well with just about anything. Try it with mild rice or pasta dishes, grilled vegetables, grilled chicken and fish, and even with something spicy like Louisiana boiled crawfish, shrimp and crabs. Goat cheeses like feta and chevre pair well with Abita Golden."

This beer was just what I needed when i got back from my road trip.  It was crisp and clean and fresh and went perfectly with the pizza.  A beer to come back to for refreshment and enjoyment  without any airs and graces.
