So in an effort to conquer all the states, and then the nations, I had my friend Chris bring this back from his Myrtle Beach trip. And apparently even Carolinians will tell you their beer sucks, try something else. Well I have to disagree. This beer which was eventually found after quite an ordeal, has a couple good things going for it. The aroma has a nice amount of honey-like soft malt aromas. The appearance is at first a nice golden color with a fluffy white head, that quickly dissipates to absolutely nothing. Not really what I expect from a pilsener. The body is a clean coppery gold. The flavor is soft and pleasant with a nice amount of pale malts, no hops to speak of. The feel is genuinely soft and pleasant, very much a session type of beer. Nice.

Can. Had this while on vacation in NC. A solid session brew, but nothing special. Crisp and easy drinking.

Nice beer I asked for the local brew, I’m visiting from out of town. Clear and headless gold beer was much better than I expected. When it was brought to me I expected another pale lager, but was suprised that it actually had some taste to it. citrus overtones A small hint of fruit with a crisp finish. This went well with the cajuan shrimp that I had very well.

Bottle: A clear golden beer with a stable white film. Has a macroish aroma- sweet papery pale malts- slight oxidation and quite a bit of stale grassy character. Thin bodied with a macro feel to it. Has flavors of brewing cereal,corn sweetness and hardly any hop character. Some mild appleish sweetness, (a sign of a failed lager). Eh.

Poured a crystal clear pale yellow with a lot of big bubble carbonation and a thick white head. Aroma was yeast and some citrus. Pretty crisp light beer. Wasn’t great, wasn’t horrible. If some one gave this to me on a hot day I wouldn’t say no.

Strong aroma of yeast and mustiness. Flavor is more of the same. I think I’ll pass.

On tap at the Carolina Beer Co. bar at the Charlotte airport. Better than espected, for a pilsner that is.
