A light-bodied and golden European style Pilsner with a very light and clean finish and just enough hops complexity to keep its microbrewed integrity.

[1] Review by bluesandbarbq from Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (9/3/2008 8:40:06 AM)
"Pours a clear golden yellow with a bright white foamy head leaving ample lacing. Good carbonation. Aromas of slightly sweet malt and hops. Taste is slightly sweet on the malts with a nice crisp, clean hops finish. Nice Pils."

[2] Review by Stoutlover72 from Northern, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (11/15/2006 12:03:49 PM)
"To be fair, I wasn't expecting much. South Carolina isn't really a haven of the craft beer scene. Beautiful area, not so much from the beer. On to the beer! The aroma was slightly sour and some grain. Appearance was the usual yellow but with a touch of haze to it. Mouthfeel was sort of rough and astringent. Flavors were acidic, lemon, very lactic and tart. If it were a fruit beer, it might be on to something but this was pretty gross. I didn't enjoy this beer at all. No thanks, never again (ok...well, maybe if it's free)."

[3] Review by aracauna from Adairsville, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/8/2006 8:24:38 PM)
"This pours a clear gold. There are no hops to be found, which is a bad sign for a pilsner. Something is a little off like there might be some diacetyl or oxidation. Usually, you can expect at least a decent tipple from Thomas Creek, but this one is not up to their normal standards."

[4] Review by drewseslu from Saint Louis, MO, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/15/2005 2:26:37 AM)
"Courtesy of Staley. This poured with a slight head over goldenrod fluid. Floral and grassy hop aroma with some butteriness. There's a good, but incomplete maltiness to this beer, and the style seems to demand a more pronounced hop presence and certainly a better bite."

[5] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/22/2005 11:36:19 PM)
"The aroma is typical of this style and is grainy-like as well as malty with some sweetness with maybe some dried flowers present. The appearance is a hazy, pale yellow in color with a decent head that diminishes quickly and is white and bubbly and leaves uneven lacing. The mouthfeel is crisp and light-bodied with malty complexity with close to no balance with a crisp pallet and aftertaste. The flavor is grainy and malty with some dryness and is somewhat floral with decently crisp overtones in the finish. Overall, not bad but not good either. This is a typical pilsner which is refreshing and crisp and excellent for a hot day. Furthermore, I would go with this one over all other macro-brewed pilsners."
