I am a fan of Abita after a week in the Big Easy a few years back, though I havent tried this one – sounds like its worth checking out.

Nate, Satsuma is a type of Orange originally from Asia I think.

mike’s sentiments resonate with me…if the local store sold them singularly I’d def. give it a try, but I don’t want to be stuck with a six pack of a beer that I am not too keen on. I was wondering why it was called Satsuma!

@Jim – Nice to see you here! Thanks for the comment and the great story to go along with it.

@Mike – Its probably worth a try – it wasn’t bad but I thought a little more orangy like if you were to be kooky enough to put orange into your Blue Moon. Similar, but not that bad. If you end up not liking it, friends certainly will.

Nice review. I’m not a fan of wit beers, but I am a fan of Abita.

I was in New Orleans on vacation a few years ago and my back went out on me. Luckily, alcohol flows freely in the Big Easy and I took the edge off of my pain with a steady flow of the local favorite, Abita beer. Every time I have an Abita, the good memories from New Orleans drift back to me. Enjoying an Abita at a Cajun restaurant doubles this sensation and I feel instantly relaxed. An easy-to-drink beer from the Big Easy.
