Abita Beer

Abita Beer, founded in 1986, is a renowned brand nestled in the piney woods, 30 miles north of New Orleans. Originally producing 1,500 barrels of beer, the brewery quickly gained popularity and expanded to meet the growing demand. Today, Abita brews over 125,000 barrels of beer and 13,500 barrels of soda in its state-of-the-art facility. With a commitment to quality and small-batch production, their lagers and ales are hand-crafted by a dedicated team. What sets Abita Beer apart is their focus on using the finest ingredients, including British and North American malted barley, German and American yeast strains, Pacific Northwest hops, and pure artesian water from Abita Springs. This pristine water, drawn from deep wells, remains unaltered, resulting in beer that is freshest and most flavorful. Abita Beer is proud to be privately owned and operated by local shareholders, many of whom have been with the brand since its inception. Their loyal customers and top chefs in the South can attest to the quality and taste that Abita Beer brings to their recipes.
