Not to be confused with Sleeman Clear, the difference of which is, uh, I really don’t know. Pours with very little head and a light gold colour with plenty of carbonation. Aroma of pizza crust and cardboard, maybe like you’re licking the bottom of a really bland pizza. Flavour is a hint of lemon and bread and a hugely watery mouthfeel. The only thing I can say is: good on Sleeman for making money off people by selling them alcoholic lemon water; as they say, "a fool and his money are soon departed". Or something.

UPDATED: SEP 3, 2011 Bouteille 341 ml. Cannette 355 ml. 4%. Couleur jaune paille. La meilleure lager light commerciale. Goûte plus que les autres. Quelqu’un qui doit boire de la light.

Again a very typical light beer, I am yet to find a light beer with much flavour, not much in this one.butterscotch. If you want a light beer you can find the same taste for less in another light beer

Doughy aroma. Light yellow colour. Put this in a plastic cup and serve it at a social. One of the reasons I generally don’t like light beer. Not much to it. What is there is almost sour.

A - Light grassy aroma A - Light gold in colour with little to no head T - Dry with Light sweetness and lightly bitter finish P - Average carbonation with light body O - Its a light beer...enough said

can. Poured clear amber with a thinning white head. Aroma is overly sweet and grainy. Mouthfeel is light. Flavours of corn and light malt. No unnatural flavours. Better than I was expecting and beats out most macros.

Bouteille 341ml. De couleur dorée et claire. Nez ne grains de malt pâle sucrés, léger de maïs sucré avec des notes de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) ainsi que des traces fruitées (citron) et métalliques. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture aux petites notes huileuses. Léger goût de grains de malt pâle lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un léger goût sucré rappelant des notes de maïs et de riz puis en finale l’on retrouve un léger goût herbeux (gazon mouillé, quelques traces de houblon) avec de faibles notes de citron. Post-goût court et légèrement herbeux.

I tried this beer on April 25 after purchasing from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a beautiful translucent gold colour with a thin white head that quickly disappeared. The aroma was wet steel and some grass. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied, with mild carbonation. The flavour was metallic, grassy, slightly sour, and not at all good.
