I had the urge this week for a light and wanting to patronize a micro picked up a sixer of this. Has similar color to any other pilsner with a slight touch of orange thrown in. I have a question. What the hell is that floating around in my beer? I cannot tell if it is the way this beer is supposed to be or if it is contaminated. Upon closer inspection I think it's a flea. WTF. This beer kinda tastes like a cross between a hop vine and a hay bale. Straw colored, that's it. I would probably try this beer again sometime though as I have 5 more in the fridge. All joking aside, this is a average beer easily ahead of American Macro's. I will buy more from Carolina Beer And Beverage in the future.

I had out of a 12 ounce bottle.
A. It bubbly and clear gold. It has a limited head an no real lacing. Kind of American macro looking.
S. Not much of a scent at all.
T. It's certainly malty. Way too malty, in fact. Crisp and clear, just bland. Perhaps refreshing in the right instance, but no taste other than basic malt.

Had this from a bottle at the ACC championship game. Overall not one of my favorites, pale blonde color, very average smell and taste was that of a blonde ale with average ingredients. Overall not something I would recommend and really a let down as far as new beers go
