Beer of the Week

The beer: Mardi Gras Bock

Brewed by: Abita Brewing Company, Covington, Louisiana

Description (from the website): "Mardi Gras Bock is the first of our seasonal brews. Abita Bock is brewed with pale, pilsner and caramel malts and German Perle hops. Our bock is similar to German maibocks with its rich malt flavor and full body. A perfect choice during Carnival season in New Orleans. Gruyére, Emmental and Swiss are nice cheese choices with Bock. Great with roasted beef or pork. Try it with Mexican food, too."

Would I buy it again?: Yes. I'm a big fan of bocks, and while this one wasn't the best I've ever had, it was still very good. A malty taste, but not thick. Very easy to drink. A great beer for a spring evening.
