However, I do know what they are going through. Despite not really caring one way or the other, I still live 5 miles from Dolphin Stadium and don't think the words Landshark Stadium have left my mouth yet (minus jokes). I still call some female high school friends by their maiden names, which they love as well. Sentimentality.
This afternoon I'm drinking Purple Haze, a raspberry wheat beer brewed by Abita Brewing Company in Abita Springs, Louisiana. After watching some old performances, I'm guessing this beer wasn't the inspiration for Jimi Hendrix and his Purple Haze. Use your imagination. Anyway, it's super-duper hot outside so I'm hoping this is refreshing and delicious all rolled into one beer.
There is a raspberry, candy-like aroma to Purple Haze. Lots of raspberry and wheat flavors open up this Abita Experience. It starts out sweet and a bit tart, then some powerful carbonation drives that down a little bit until the sweetness disappears leaving only a decent raspberry aftertaste in your mouth. The drinkability is very good, although a few more and the raspberry surely would be extremely annoying. To sum this beer up: light-bodied, fruity with carbonated (artesian) water, lots of water. Was a decent beer but my impression is that Abita had non-beer drinkers and even beer haters in the back of their minds when brewing it. "Hmmm. Maybe we can convert some new customers."
