Carolina Blonde

Brewed by Carolina Beer Company
Style: Pilsener
Mooresville, North Carolina USA

It poured a cloudy, gold color with a small, quickly fading, white head. It was crisp. It was light in both hops and maltbut balanced. It left a mild aftertaste. Pleasant

January 2009 Beer of the Month Club

Overall Impression: It’s a slightly citrusy Blonde beer, it’s fine if that’s your thing, but it ain’t mine. For it’s style its solid I guess, hence the score (which was pretty generous). Anyway, not really my kind of beer, but I certainly finished the bottle.

(Bottle, courtesy of travita) Pours a clear yellow body with a spare white ring of bubbles. Aroma of grain, grass, and wet husks. Flavor of hops (grass), grain, and some caramel malt with a hint of metallic in the finish.

Bottle 355 ml
Appearance: Fine haze , amber gold , light white top.
Nose: Off grainy nose , slight citric hop hints. Somewhat fruity but in not refreshing way. 3+
Flavor/Palate : Medium light bodied. Raw , grainy charcter. Poorly done brew. Thin, forgettable at finish.

I thought this would be a pilsner. My scores are geared towards that. Typically average for a beer. A little grainy in aroma and flavor. Some minimal white carbonated head that disappears quickly, a fair amount of carbonation throughout including on the palate.

Golden yellow color with a small white head. Aroma is of grain and fruit. Taste is of grain and lemons.

Bottle, thanks to Mei. Color of apple juice. Aroma is lightly fruity grainy malt, somewhat old with low quality floral hops. Flavor is the same.

First beer I’m trying out of my beer of the month club. Pours a golden color. Pretty basic beer, but one that you can definitely drink many of. I would place this one a step above your basic domestics.
