Abita Purple Haze

Hazy amber body with off-white head. Artificial metallic raspberry flavor. Blah.. glad I didn’t buy a whole 6-pack of this.

Tried this out only after giving Turbodog a shot first. This one has definitely got a rasberry sheen all over it. Not much of a head, but goes over well in the end and is fairly drinkable. (It does get a bit sweet after the second one though)

Raspberry wheat, very tasty would order again!! It’s not the prettiest thing in a glass but it gets the job done

Pleasant aroma, satisfyingly opaque. I don’t understand why people are so down on this beer -- the raspberry more than covers up any deficiencies in the wheat beer base of Purple Haze. Like most wheat beers, the taste is by no means complex, though complexity and satisfaction need not be synonymous. I find this brew refreshing and satisfying, and, when I’m in the mood for a wheat beer, find myself purchasing this particular beer 20% of the time -- the other 80% being split between paulaner hefeweizen and hoegaarden. Though those two brews outclass this particular brew, this brew is unique and is always a crowd pleaser.

12 oz bottle. Light lavender color with minimal head. Rasperry aromas as well as the flavor. Wheat twang on the finish. Not bad considering.

hazy peach color with a medium sized white head. fruity raspberry aroma and flavor. nothing special.

Drinking this beer is like drinking ambrosia. It is pure bliss. I think I want to have an afair with this beer and runaway to Fiji or the Maldives. I dont know.

I’m no aficionado of overtly fruity brews, but I actually enjoyed this one. It wasn’t as tart as I had expected, and the raspberry wasn’t overpowering. The alcohol was actually evident, especially in relation to its low alcohol content. It’s nothing to especially laud, but it’s great to buy and drink in bulk (i.e., it has a big bang for the buck).
