Purple Haze

This light-bodied American Ale registers at a sessionable 4.8% ABV. Given the name, this brew often presents a hazy, slightly purple hue, perhaps derived from the addition of fruit like raspberries or blackberries. The aroma typically features bright, tart fruit notes balanced by a clean malt backbone. On the palate, expect a refreshing sweetness upfront followed by a crisp, dry finish, making it highly suitable for warm weather enjoyment. The mouthfeel is generally light and effervescent.
