It was told to me that Louisiana is a 'consumption' state. Given that, Purple Haze fits right in, not much aroma, not much flavor and could be chugged in a heartbeat.

Mpuntmuts (669) - NETHERLANDS - DEC 20, 2020
UPDATED: DEC 20, 2020 Slightly hazy amber with a big bubbly white head. Full on raspberry, sour candy and not a lot more going on. Softly sweet and medium sour. Thin bodied with average carbonation. Meh. Pretty lame flavored beer.

DraftPours23 (2632) - FRANCE - OCT 21, 2020
UPDATED: OCT 21, 2020 Robe orangée, très trouble (voile de particules fines), mousse moyenne, fine, très légère nuance rosée, nez de framboise, agréable. Attaque sur la framboise, très aromatique mais sans sucre, et sans cette amertume herbeuse, genre feuilles de framboisier, que j'ai pu trouver parfois. Un arôme très pur, pas du tout du sirop de fruit, sur une base de bière plutôt en retrait, mais qui semble être une lager neutre bien faite. Le fruit domine l'ensemble mais de manière équilibrée. Facile à boire, goûteux et aromatique, j'aime beaucoup !

Bamsen78 (7609) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - JUL 24, 2020
UPDATED: JUL 24, 2020 Bottle @ Fox and Hounds, Sønderborg. Pours nearly clear light copper brown with stable white head. Clear aroma of berries, with notes of yeast and touches of hops. Citric flavour of berries, with bitter notes of hops and sweetish estery touches. Bitter and acidic aftertaste with touches of yeast. Reasonable, but watery.

HenrikSoegaard (18560) - Randers, DENMARK - JUN 29, 2020
UPDATED: JUN 29, 2020 Frothy white good mostly lasting head. Dark yellow colour. Light malty and hoppy powerful raspberry aroma. Moderate bitter flavor. Strong raspberry notes. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.

Beese (12774) - Tooting, London, Greater London, ENGLAND - MAR 16, 2020
UPDATED: MAR 16, 2020 12oz bottle at Mimi’s, New Orleans, LA on 20/06/2008. Fairly nice and refreshing on a hideously hot and humid day (why in God’s name was I in Louisiana in June?!). Not sensational, but I quite liked it at the time.

Spab (8221) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 22, 2020
UPDATED: FEB 22, 2020 12 oz bottle from the Lewiston Tops. Pours a cloudy pinkish gold colour with modest-sizes white head. Aroma is tart, slightly medicinal raspberry and grains. Flavour has a tart rather artificial tasting raspberry with graininess. Light to medium bodied. Ok.

jdelafuente01 (179) - Texas, USA - JAN 19, 2020
UPDATED: JAN 19, 2020 Pours a pinkish red color like grapefruit thick head disappear quickly smells like raspberry smooth taste, watery not bad

3.1
AgentAle (2819) - Fort Mcmurray, Alberta, CANADA - AUG 30, 2019
UPDATED: AUG 30, 2019 Aroma is caramel, wheat , and cloves. Taste is wheat, clove, caramel malts and a mild grassy finish.

NosirIwont (3682) - Husum, DENMARK - JUL 22, 2019
UPDATED: JUL 22, 2019 Bottle. 4.2%. Best before 01.07.20. Pours a hazy orange, with an off-white head. Decent lacing. Tart raspberries dominating the aroma, if a bit mild. Light hops hiding in the background. Flavour is sweetish, with stale bread, cardboard notes, and perfumy, light raspberries. Dry finish, mildly bitter. Light raspberries. Overall so-so; unbalanced. The aroma is okay, if a bit generic, but the flavour and mouthfeel are lacking. 22.07.19.

UPDATED: JUL 4, 2019 It’s not bad, but it isn’t good either. Inoffensive. I’d drink this again but I wouldn’t buy this again
