Commercial Description:
The gold-colored Palmetto Charleston Lager is perhaps the company’s cleverest creation; it’s strong in flavor, crisp, with a fresh, clean finish (i.e., no lingering aftertaste), but light enough so you could drink it just about all day. Yeast and a cool fermentation are what make a lager a lager, and Palmetto’s is among the smoothest, mellowest around.

This was served to me in the Budweiser signature glass, and perhaps if I wasn’t paying attention I might have mistaken it as such.... This is a fairly plain lager golden and translucent, pours with a tight head that eventually disappears. It is crisp and refreshing the taste is slightly more complex than that of a typical American lager, somewhere between Spaten and Budweiser... Not too bad, but not overwhelmingly great.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a medium white head. Aroma of grain, caramel and lemon. Taste is much the same. Light and easy to drink but without a lot of character. Has a light malty semi sweet finish without much hop influence.

Gold color with an ok taste (no aftertaste to speak of). Easy to drink - much better than standard pale lagers. It being local doesnt hurt either. :)
