Abita Purple Haze

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

12 oz. bottle. Pours a golden/orange with very little head. Smell is nice, citrus/berries/grain and more berries. Tastes like wheat beer with artificial berry flavor added, just too much flavoring. Better on tap when I had it before.

12oz bottle-A hazy cloudy golden body with a small tight head. Aroma of raspberry and malt. Taste of this this light bodied brew is of raspberry tartness on the front end and then it lingers on for a little bit. Not bad but there are much better fruit beers out there.

Like most fruit beers, the smell is very refreshing and the palate is complex, but the flavor is too much.

pours cloudy rasberry wheat looking thin white head.fruity nose.slight fruit flavor.ok nothing great

The fruity raspberry flavor seemed unnatural and forced. The consistency was very watery.

I really enjoyed this beer. I got it on tap, and it didn’t have much of a head, and looked a bit watery, but the flavour was good.

Sampled @ Hallandale beer fest (bottle). Hazy gold color, hey where’s my purple haze? Faint candy aroma. Soda pop flavors--nasty! Thin, insubstantial, almost offensive invocation of Jimi.

Not one of my favorites. It pours a very hazy goldenrod with a good size head which leaves little to no lacing. It is beyond mild...very little malt or hops flavor comes through and the raspberry is only briefly noticeable at the very front and very back of the sip. On the bright side, it is very smooth with no lingering taste. On the whole, the experience was entirely forgetable. Very bland, very simple, nothing worth trying again.
