Draught.Clear golden color. The head was gone by the time it came to the table. Subtle citrus hop flavor and taste. Crisp finish with honey/buttery aftertaste. Not bad.

Draught. Think Sam Adams light with a bit less flavor. This is a decent take on the "light beer" idea. No off flavors or anything else gross on this one, but no pleasing flavors or body. This is really watery, but does manage to produce a nod at European hop flavor and maybe a drop of malt sweetness. Yeah, in summary this has no real bad taste and it kind of tastes like beer.

Tasted on a recent visit to Woods on South in Charlotte, NC. Generally light in color with a very thin white head that dissipates to nothing. Aroma is very faint, some wheat present. Very little flavor to this beer with a slightly bitter finish. Reasonable for a light beer.

Bottle. Very weak beer. Small fizzy head (more than a bud) and pale body. Weak malt flavor and watery finish. Just weak all around.

Pretty decent light beer. The only Carolina Blonde for me is NEEZY (with her hair died blonde). She is my Carolina Brunette. But this is a pretty tasty light beer, IMO.

I'm not much for light beers. This particular one pours a cloudy, pale golden color with particles of yeast? floating in it. The aroma is slightly hoppy without any malty sweetness. It has a light body up front, which turns into bland ,watery nothingness in the finish. The flavor is just slightly malty up front. The finish is bland, tasteless, and watery.
