Grizzly Paw Powder Hound Blonde Ale 355 ml - 24 Cans

Powder Hound Blonde Ale is a core flagship from Canmore’s Grizzly Paw Brewing Company. True to its name, this beer is a tribute to the "powder hounds" of the Bow Valley—those who live for fresh snow and mountain adventures. It is designed to be the ultimate easy-drinking, post-activity beer: light, clean, and unpretentious. It serves as the perfect entry point for those new to craft beer while providing the crisp consistency that seasoned locals expect from a mountain-brewed ale.

Beer Description

This blonde ale pours a brilliant, crystal-clear pale gold with a bright white head and a lively, streaming carbonation.

Aroma: It features a subtle and clean nose. Expect delicate scents of sweet grainy malt and fresh white bread, with a very faint hint of floral honey and a touch of herbal hops.

Palate: On the tongue, it is light-bodied and exceptionally crisp. It delivers a soft, bready malt sweetness that is immediately balanced by a mild, clean bitterness. The mouthfeel is smooth and effervescent, leading to a quick, dry finish that encourages another sip.

Profile: It has an ABV of 4.5% and a low bitterness of 15 IBU, making it one of the most sessionable and approachable beers in the Grizzly Paw lineup.

Technical Notes: Brewed with a simple, high-quality malt bill to ensure a light color and clean profile. It is fermented at slightly cooler temperatures with a neutral ale yeast to minimize fruity esters, resulting in a beer that drinks with the refreshing snap of a lager but the soft character of an ale.
