Crimson Voodoo Ale

Pros: easy to drink
Cons: a bit watery and lacking in distinction.

Earlier this year, I wrote a review on a stellar microbrewed beer called Blackened Voodoo. This is an outstanding black lager from the Dixie Brewing Co in New Orleans. I extolled the virtues of that fine brewery. I also have written...

Pros: Nice Label
Cons: Weak, Watery Taste

Dixieland Brewing Company is a craft- brewer located on Tulane Av., in New Orleans, Louisiana. This brewer produces only a few products that I know about. Most are fairly good, but there is at least one exception: Voodoo Crimson Ale.

Pros: Nice presentation and aroma
Cons: Too thin, low flavor, no carbonation

The Dixie Brewing Company is a microbrewery that produces a good range of quality beers. Based in New Orleans since 1907, the building it occupies is something of an architectural landmark. Probably the best known of its brew is the Blackened Voodoo, a...

Pros: Packaging, taste

Pros: Its Red
Cons: taste, aroma, aftertaste, price

Pros: None
Cons: Bitter, sour

I am one of the biggest fans of blackened Voodoo you will ever find. So when I saw Crimson Voodoo gracing the shelf of the grocery store, imagine my excitement and curiosity. I took it home, chilled, couldn't wait to taste it for the first time. These...

Pros: A uniquely flavored beverage that's very good.
Cons: Hard to get, and slightly expensive.

Does anyone remember "Smokey and the Bandit?" Sure you do. Burt Reynolds and Sally Fields run cross-country with their trucker buddy to bring a truck load of Coors to the east coast to win a bet. This was, of course, back in the 70's, a time...
