Sleeman Cream Ale

ok, wow, this was bad. next to no flavour, not very creamy either, this was crap.

Can. Big fizzy head that faded quick and a clear yellow color. Sweet malt and grain aroma. Flavor is barley malt and a sour, grainy finish. Light body, slippery mouthfeel and a bit heavy on the carbonation. Decent enough but really not worth seeking out again.

Bottle. Slightly sweet barley malt aroma. Medium yellow with moderate head and nice lacing. Sligthly sweet malt flavor up front with mild sour finish. Light body. A standard cream ale.

Received a six pack of bottles through my beer club. Poured a pale amber without much of a lasting head. Aroma and flavor were average at best. This is not an impressive ale and not one I’d purchase on my own.

Yellow with a moderate white head. Grain, bread, and some straw in the aroma. Metallic and tart taste. Whatever.

Got this 12oz bottle as a gift: Pours a transparent dull golden with a thin ring of fizzy white head that leaves a thin wisp of lace as I tilt the glass. Aroma of semi-sweet, toasty grainy malts and some noble hops. Actually kinda smells like a good pilsner. Body on the other hand is very thin, fizzy, and almost devoid of flavor. Just a touch of sweetness and more of a drier bittering hop finish, but the lively carbonation makes detecting subtle flavors difficult. This wouldn’t be so bad if it were concentrated a little more and had less carbonation.

Not much to this beer. Pours amber with a medium head. Not much in the aroma, maybe some hops. Pretty clean on the palate. A slight bite with a fairly clean finish.

Bottle. Poured a clear golden color with a one finger head. Aroma of malt, and barley. Taste nothing.
