Sleeman Cream Ale

An average beer, pretty good in taste, better then half the watered down American non sense. Nice creamy head, goes down smooth, good overall.

Yellow color, skunky aroma, white head. Has a slight peppery hop presence that gets overshadowed by the skunk, musty finish. Blah. (this bottle was taken out of a cardboard six pack holder that lets no light in).

Quite bland and thin. "Remarkably smooth" like flavored water. If you mixed this with...say...Maudite, then you might get a decent flavor...oh wait...that’s probably already being done ;-)

Not bad. I find that it sit a little heavy on my tounge. I never liked the smell of this beer, somewhat shunky. Wouldn’t turn one down, but not a beer that I would actively seek out.

12 oz bottle. Very very clear, very light amber. Lightly skunky, lightly grassy, somewhat stale aroma. "Creamy"? Well, it’s smooth I guess, but mostly due to the lack of distractions like "flavor", "malt", and "hops". This is like drinking instant milk with the milk flavor removed, there’s just nothing there but a vague thicker-than-water feelling. Very light sweetness. Probably the worst of Sleeman’s line that I’ve had.

I was quite pleased with this gift from Ron. Of course I had this after 3 sets of tennis on a hot sunny day, but hey, it worked ideally in that application. Smooth, with a pleasant sweet finish. Nice smell of hops and color. An enjoyable summer ale. PS, I’m not sure what cream ale is supposed to be stylistically.

One fresh bottle that was not skunky. Creamy and smooth mouthfeel with a crisp ending. Typical cream ale. I’ll have to do a taste comparison with our local Genny cream ale.

Pours gold with a Small white head. Aroma is mild with a little hop to cover the slight corn scent. Flavor is mild, maybe a little weak (they call it smooth). A little malt, a little corn and OK hops. Mouthfeel is light and a little watery (they call it easy drinking and refreshing) While drinkable, it is not a great beer. Please, Sleeman, don’t do this to Unibroue.
