The proverbial urinal colored liquid. Quickly diminished white head. Mild aroma of grape jam in a tin can. Seltzer water with a twist. Not sure what the twist is just yet. This really is quite devoid of substance. Light flavors of grape skins and grain. Thanks to slikwily, I can now say I have tried it.

Bottle (341ml - clear). My second low-carb "beer" in as many days - at least Molson Ultra comes in a brown bottle. Poured pale fizzy yellow with a big foamy industrial soap-looking bright white quick diminishing head. The bubbles never stopped. What aroma there is reminded me of ivory soap, with sweet ’n low and corn starch added. Taste - there is none - fizzily grainy, watery, nothing. I was thirsty, it was a beautiful sunny day on my balcony, and I still hated it. Better than the Molson Ultra though ...

Light yellow body with a quickly dissapating head. The aroma is rotten tomatoes and old grass clippings. The taste is metallic and tart. Hints of cheap cheddar cheese and wet cardboard. This atrocious concoction beats out Steelback Tango in my book. Drainpour.

Well one thing is for sure: The beer is definitely clear. Light yellow-gold color with a thin and immediately gone white head. No lacing at all. The aroma is corny and a tad skunked. Soda-water body without much going on flavor-wise except some corn and off-flavored hops. The finish is clean and flavorless. I hope the other Sleeman beers are better than this.

Who was the genius to put this in a clear bottle? Typical Canadian import corn-starch aroma. Fizzy white head. Virtually flavorless, albeit altogether inoffensive beer for the masses.

It's April Fool's Day. Only reason to rate this one. Yes it is as lifeless as everyone makes it out to be. There is nothing about this beverage that remotely resembles beer. Bottle (clear).

12 oz bottle, Sultans of Swill tasting with tiggmtl and ClarkVV 8. Light apple juice color, no head...virtually no aroma or flavor at all...perhaps just the faintest hint of artificial cantaloupe? Or perhaps I’m grasping at straws...

Crystal clear lightly tinted water with a medium sized head. The beer smells like well nothing. Maybe some malt. Very light flavor with a hint of malt and touch of bitterness. Very light body with nothing offensive. Nothing there.
