Beer description

Purple Haze is a crisp, American-style wheat beer with raspberry puree added after filtration. Therefore, you may see raspberry pulp in the beer. The raspberries provide the lager with a subtle purple coloration and haze, a fruity aroma, and a tartly sweet taste. This beer is best served with salads or paired with light fruit desserts, such as soufflés or chiffon cake. Many people enjoy it with chocolate desserts. Mascarpone cheese is used in many desserts and pairs well with Purple Haze or try some ripened Brie. It’s also great with entrees prepared with fruit, especially citrus. Consider enjoying a Purple Haze alone at the end of your meal as dessert. Suggested Glasses:

  • Pint
  • Pilsner
  • Flute or tulip
