Abita Purple Haze is a crisp, American style wheat beer with fresh raspberries added during secondary fermentation. Subtle coloration, fruity aroma and tartly sweet taste.

ROGUE (1315) - Newark, Delaware, USA - DEC 10, 2008
12oz bottle pours a hazy golden amber with a small head that disapates quickly. Slight berry aroma. Smooth and malty with a weak fruit flavor. Too weak and thin for a good fruit beer but still not bad.

Orange-pinkish with a thin finger of creamy white head, light metallic wheat and raspberry aroma. Taste is a light wheat malt flavor with a light cough drop raspberry syrup flavor.

Flavor is fruity but more of a tart fruit instead of being sweet like other fruit beers.

if there is raspberries in this, i didnt taste it. aroma was citrusy and slightly floral. much more bitter than most wheat beers that mellows as the bottle warms. its ok, but there are better wheat beers out there.

On-tap at River Roost Bar- Port Orleans Riverside Resort, Walt Disney World. Light raspberry notes filling out a grainy, sour wheat body with notes of banana and bubblegum.

This beer was all the craze back in my college days. Really not much happening here, just an over carbonated fruit beer. Pleasant taste but thinness and aftertaste bring it down.

12 oz draft at Epcot during the Food and Wine festival. Pour is slightly hazed golden, with just a touch of blueish purple peeking through. Aroma of light raspberry fruit, actually nice natural smell - just not much of it. Taste is tart wheat with a covering of the raspberry. Taste of the fruit was less natural tasting versus the nose. Overall, decent and drinkable.
