HoustonBeerFilter: Help me find out what that microbrew is!!

Okay, this weekend I did the Rice Villiage thing, and hit up Baker St. and Brian O'Neill's. At O'Neills, they have a beer on tap that is a light bodied beer with a red tap. It's got a two part name. If I remember correctly, the first name starts with an A and is a woman's name.

Anyone know what it is?

Saint Arnold's. It's a local brewery. See:

Brian O'Neills list of brews

St. Arnold's Elissa IPA?

No, I'm sure it's not St. Arnold's.

I've never heard of this particular brand before I drank it the other night.

It's not listed on the website. I checked there first. I was hoping a local would see this and know it...

I'm not a local and I've definitely never been to the bar in question, but could it maybe be Stella Artois? It's got a red tap and fits your "woman's name" hint. It's pretty common (read: ubiquitous) on draft here on the East Coast, but perhaps it's just becoming popular in the South, and that's why you haven't come across it before?

Stella Artois!

Thanks, Slender. You win!

No, I haven't even heard of it, and I was told by the bartender that it was a local microbrew. Guess he didn't know his stuff.

Anyhow, I liked it. Not too complicated, and went down easy.
