A Toast to National Pecan Month

Pecan Store April 6th, 2009

What’s more appropriate than holding a toast to National Pecan Month with pecan ale?

Abita Brewing Co., located in Louisiana, has come up with Pecan Harvest Ale.  The ale, which uses toasted Louisiana pecans, can be served with both red meat and seafood, but the site also recommends trying it with gouda cheese and, of course, nuts.

Although I haven’t tasted this beer personally, Beeradvocate.com posted user reviews and scored a B- overall, which is considered a worthy drink to the site. Most comments mentioned that the nutty flavor did not taste artificial and it was surprisingly creamy with a slight earthy tone.

I could definitely toast National Pecan Month with this one but I could also see it as the perfect beer for fall with all the warmth and nuttiness in it.
