Grizzly Paw Grumpy Bear Honey Wheat

Brewed by Grizzly Paw Brewing Company
Style: Wheat Ale
Canmore, Canada

Reviwed on tap. Bottle sucked! This stuff looked like dark apple juice with its medium gold apperance and had a small white cap. Wheat and honey is what you get on smell and it’s quite sweet. I was suprised how much I liked the aroma considering the sweetness. Nice wheat taste, some malts that were on the slighty roasted side and interesting spicy honey (probally the hops). Light to medium bodied, fairly dry with a decent bitter aftertaste. Tasty beer!

Dark blonde straw body with a moderate head. Slight carbonation. aroma of sweet honey, fruit, and wheat. Flavour is of floral hops and sweet honey. Moderate bodied wheat ale that satisfies your thirst, but not much else.

Draught at the brewpub
Clean deep blond color. Very much Lager, no honey no wheat. Useless.

Sample at Edmonton Festival of beer, from 341ml brown bottle. Pale gold, faint white bubbles on the surface. Nose is sweet, floral with detectable honey. Flavour is grainy with honey sweetness. Finish is dry and grainy. Medium bodied and lightly carbonated.

On tap at Grizzly Paw. Poured a clear, paler golden with only a ring of white head. Nose was of honey and pale malty sweetness along with some wheat notes... almost skunky. Sweet honey and tart lemony-wheat in the flavor... rather mediocre. Creamy and fairly good feeling on the palate... with some odd tart notes. Not so good overall.

I had this while on the Silver Tip golf course in Canmore, which would make any beer taste that much better. Sweet and grainy with a sharp tanginess to the finish that really makes this a nice beer to drink on a hot day. One step above Grasshoppper by Big rock.

Foamy white head, aroma of bananas, sweet and slightly tangy, nice colour, somewhat smooth.

Bottle from Premier in Halifax. Pale yellow, massive white head initially made me fear infection but it shows no sign of such. Decent lacing on the glass.Sweet, floral grainy aroma. Flavour has a dry bitterness underneath a generic sweet middle. Inoffensive but dull. Average palate. Unpleasant astringence and bitterness grows as it warms.
