Commercial Description:
This unique beer is light and smooth in taste. Its deliciously fragrant aroma is imparted from whole vanilla beans that come from the orchid plant.

(On tap) Presented as "Thirsty Bear Organic Golden Vanilla". Clear, fully golden with a creamy, off-white head leaving laces. Weird pumpkin aroma. Light-bodied with a vaguely sweet malt base before the vanilla really shines through. The finish is dry without much bitterness. Interesting. 240307

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden orange with a fully gone head. Vanilla and roasted malt aroma. Distinct vanilla flavoured, towards artificial in flavour and intensity. Roasted malt and vanilla flavoured finish. I don’t like this one.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear deep golden. Strong, interesting vanilla aroma. Sweet with rounded mouthfeel, Like a fluid dessert in itself - very fluid custard. Good, but one-dimensional.

Golden-bronze colour. Light caramel aroma with a hint of vanilla. Basically this beer is a standard amber with a smooth, sweet vanilla character that is well-integrated but not overbearing. Not my mug of beer but well-made nonetheless.

Tap. Light amber ale with light vanilla aroma. Tastes like water with vanilla and some white chocolate. Very light. (June 2004).
