Charleston Pale Ale

Brewed by Carolina Beer Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Mooresville, North Carolina USA

Pours a cloudy coppery red with a foamy white head that stays on the glass. Smells like roasted barley and caramel malts. Thick on the tongue with just a hint of hops. Unexpectedly underhopped, but pretty tasty.

Coppery color that reminded me of maple syrup. Hoppy smell and not much head. Bitter. As soon as I swallowed the taste was gone.

Dark copper color with a bitter (on the mild side) taste. Semi-fizzy mouthfeel with a lingering coated bitterness.

Pours average brown with a tiny white head. Earthy hop aroma. Taste is low malt and slight earthy hops. Sweet finish. This beer is very drinkable, just nothing stands out to make it that good.

Decent frothy head. Creamy on top. Light carbonation. Weak aroma with some malts, roasted grains and some kind of vegetable water. Color is a dark amber/brown. Flavor is thin and metallic. Little roasted grains and a bit of sweetness. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. An ok but bland pale ale.

Amber colored with aroma of fruity hops, malt, and spicy fruit. Tastes hoppy and citrusy, with a smooth finish.

Nice clear red with with an off-white head. Floral hops and caramel in the nose. Flavor has notes of toasty malts, toffee, floral hops, grapefruit and citrus. Moderately bitter aftertaste. Medium body with lively carbonation. Good head retention, some lacing left on the glass. Decent stuff.

Murky amber body topped by a frothy off-white head. The aroma is that of light earthy soil, ligth toasted bread, amd floral hops. The flavor is surprisingly hoppy. Hops much more so that malt dominate the flavor, which is the exact opposite of the aroma. Medium sweet spicy hops. Medium body dry finish, a quite quaffable. A quality session beer. Exceeded my expectations.
