A lighter ale brewed with very select pale malts and mildly flavored with a blend of special hops. This beer is exceptionally smooth, crisp and very drinkable with a rich gold color.

Had this while passing though the Charlotte Airport (2007) at the north terminal arm pub. Passable, nothing of note, very light, watery, a little thin.

Barely cloudy yellow color with a quickly dissipating white head. Sort of corny aroma. Taste is crisp and lagery with a slight bitterness. Not much going on.

Charlotte airport, draught. Extra pale straw color with small head, off-white fizz and lots of bubbles. Bland grainy aroma is clean and boring as a wallflower. Mouthfeel is sweet and sticky and fizzy too. Tastes unpleasantly sweet with touch of tang. Needs more hops to balance it out. Watery, flavorless.

Pours clear golden in color. Small white head with decent lacing. Very carbonated. Grainy aromas with notes of lemon and malts . Tastes of bread yeasts, spices, malts, very little hops.

Draught, Charlotte Airport
Pale straw colour. Not much nose - slighty fruity. Really husky, and sticky sweet. Lots of fruity esters, but no hops for them to play with. Too sweet. Major conceptual problems.

Tasted on a recent visit to Woods on South in Charlotte, NC. Generally light yellow in color with a very thin white head that dissipates to nothing. Aroma is faint with maybe some wheat and spices. Little fruitiness on tasting, but not many flavors came through. Generally watery mouthfeel with quick finish.
