On draught, this one goes by the name of "Grizzly" because its based on an American honey beer recipe!
A pale golden yellow coloured beer with a thickish white head. Mild citrus fruit nose, grapefruit and orange with a hint of spice. A dry taste, plenty of citrusy hop flavours, plus a buttery malt flavour that balances the finish. (Cask - The Fox & Hounds, Heacham, Norfolk).

Sep 1, 2007 Bottle, at London Shindig, August 2007. Hazy straw colour. Slightly sharp, yeasty aroma. Light bitterness on the palate, with plenty of citrus. Sharp tangy mouthfeel, with a light body. Not bad. Might have suffered from being tasted directly after the Arcadia Cocoa Loco. Might try this one again if I get a chance.
