Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pale yellow colour, good head. Biscuit resin aroma. Grain fagash malt flavour, bitter aftertaste. Unusual. Not a typical Aperican Pale Ale, quite difficult to categorise, perhaps somewhere between a bitter, golden ale & English Pale Ale.

Pale golden ale with a thick white head. Citrusy fruit aroma with a distinctly sweetish background. Dry on the palate to begin with, hoppy and citrusy, then a balancing maltiness is accompanied by the honeyed sweetness again. Was the ale I had at my wedding reception, and it went down a storm!!!

[cask at the Brunswick Inn, Derby] Slightly hazy golden pour with a fluffy white head. Floral, hoppy nose, alongside citrus and grapefruit. More on the taste, as the citrus elements come through before the bitter finish. Grizzly is a real treat - a classic refreshing session beer [18042009]

(Bottled)Props out to the bottle label and unoriginal but cool name ...I love bears ...according to two Shaman my ’power animal’ is a bear . now, Im not some new age stoner but animals obviously offer us metaphorical spiritual symbolism, this beer looks like a Saison ,dirty blonde , with sediment swimming around ...fine cream head. nose is lemon,spice and bready malts. Drinks down with all that and some orange . tad thinner than id like but easy to sink , light, zesty.

cask at GBBF 2010 ... golden yellow ... lemon and corriander nose ... dull dry off flavcour ... light hop... weird

Aroma: Citrus, hoppy, bitter fruit. Appearance: Golden light clear colour, no carbonation, small head disapates very quickly. Taste: Bitter, slight hop and sharp fruit. Palate: Light and soft with bitter finish. Overall: A nice balance tasty beer that has a nice aroma and tastes fresh. Very enjoyable.

Cask Handpump at the GBBF, Earl’s Court 07/08/2009 Hoppy fruit aroma. Golden coloured hoppy and fruity grapefruit flavour with a crisp and slightly bitter lasting malt finish.

Bottle. Golden beer with a strongish head. The aroma is toffee and hopped, and the flavour is sour, grassy and hopped. Overall an average hopped beer.

Cask at GBBF 2009. Lemony/hoppy pretty good. Nice lemon curd flavour in the mouth. Decent hop on the finish too. APA? Not sure, but a decent golden ale.

Bottled. A hazy light yellow beer with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet with citrusy notes of hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and citrusy hops, leading to a dry and bitter finish. The body is light. Thanks fonefan for sharing.
