"It's unfiltered, a little cloudy, the mouth fill on it, the head , it will blow your socks off," said David Blossman, President of Abita beer.

Abita did a similar fund raiser right after Katrina with "Restoration Pale Ale."

That effort according the brewery raised more than a half million dollars.

S-O-S will be sold in 41 states.
