Louisiana Breweries History: Abita Brewing Company
The Abita Brewing Company was Founded in 1986 in the piney woods
30 miles north of New Orleans. In 1994 the Abita brewery outgrew the original
site (which is now their 100 seat brew pub) and moved up the road to a
larger facility to keep up with demand. In addition to beer, Abita also brews
root beer.
Abita uses only the finest ingredients – British and American barley,
German yeast, European and Washington State hops and the pure artesian water
of Abita Springs. Drawn from our deep wells, the pristine water is not altered
in any way. Abita Beer has no preservatives, additives or stabilizers and is
cold filtered.
