Abita Purple Haze

Brewed by Abita Brewing Company
Style: Fruit Beer
Covington, Louisiana USA

Bottled (CK). Hazy dark orange color, small white head. Lightly tart and metallic rasberry aroma. Watery, bland palate. Light fruityness, rasberry seeds flavor, a bit wheaty-grainy. Light sourness, not much, in the finish. Overall very watery and useless.

Bottle. Pours a hazy, orangish color with a large, frothy head. Lacing is okay. Aromas of raspberries, wheat, and a bit of hay. Lively palate to start and then a crisp, clean finish. Taste is wheat at the beginning, raspberry to finish. Okay beer but I would prefer it to have a bit more flavor for my liking.

Bottle. Pours hazy pale yellow with white head. Aroma is raspberries and wheat. Flavor is sweet raspberry syrup and wheat. Not the most refreshing or enjoyable brew. Beer for the ladies.

Bottle 12 I’d as I sit in New Orleans not horeable but not outstanding either. The raspberrys are pronouned and actually are not bad but the main body of beer is a let down

Wow yuck. I just tasted a different rasperry beer and it was bad, but this...this is not beer, it’s artificially flavored water. It smells like a lager with a small hint of fruit, very weird smell. Tastes like bad water with something sort of fruity in it. It’s really bad, I can’t really explain it I just can’t drink anymore.

poured a hazy pale yellow with big head aromas of raspberries and wheat flavor of the same and very mild

Bottle... Poured a foggy, pastel orange with a thick, frothy, white head. Aroma of coriander, orange peel and yeast. I didn’t really detect much of the raspberries in the brew, but it was a pretty standard American style wheat. Tart yeast and fruit notes which had lend to a highly drinkable and sessionable, refreshing beer. Not the worst that I’ve had for a fruit/wheat style.
