3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Yum. The flavor isn't as intense as most pale ales, but it's a trade-off, as it's also much easier on the palate.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Nice hops, but the flavor is metallic and almost too lager-like. There are way better pales out there.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Has a clear, yellow, lager-like appearence with a medium white head. Flavor is hopped well, but astringent. Cheap ($4.99), but not a very impressive pale ale.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Smooth, unassuming and easy to drink. This is a good one to have if you're not a big fan of pale ales. Lots of hop flavor without too much bitterness. A little on the thin side, but still quite enjoyable.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Crystal-clear golden with small off-white head. Aroma is caramel malty, earthy, and light floral. Taste is delightfully earthy, light sweet. Light floral sneaks in there as well. Light-medium body.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
This is my local brew. Overall a very good beer. Could use some more hops for my taste. A little less flavorful than some of the classics (Sierra Nevada/Troegs Pale Ale). A good beer nonetheless.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle: There is a light haze to the beer. The color is a bit of a lighter copper hue. The head isn't long for this world after it is poured. Fairly decent aroma of malts, with a whiff of hops and caramel. The taste is a good blend of malt sweetness and some bitterness. Not too bad of a beer. I also have had this on tap. They are pretty much the same.

Pretty middle of the road. Nothing special so far from the Carolina Brewing Co. Strange aftertaste, though.
1.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft- This beer tastes much more like an APA than an English pale. The hops are quite overbearing and create a very unbalanced beer. Quite disappointing since I enjoy this brewery’s other offerings.
