An okay beer. Very clean finish with some flavor. Not the best of the Sleeman beers.

Grabbed this on a trip up north. Not too bad, but not as good as Anchor, which is a tough standard to go by. Altogether I liked it, but I wouldn’t mind a little more bite. It seems like many canadian beers are real light on the hops.

UPDATED: JAN 29, 2003 My favorite sleeman brew (brewed in guelph). Closest to style out of their beers. Slightly pungent with some of characteristic flavours found in the Standard for steam beers - anchor steam. OH yeah, keep the bottles out of direct sunlight or you will smell skunks in any of those stupid clear bottles.

Citrus, malty smell. Copper colour, big foamy head. Malt flavour, followed with mild bitterness. Pleasantly sweet, ordinary.

Do a taste test with this and the silver creek lager, eyes closed and everything. If you can tell the diff and name the beer properly, your a better man than i.

Not an offensive taste at all. Very Pleasing, with a smooth finish. Smelled some hops, nthing to call home to tell mother though.

Not my favorite Sleemans beer. Not really well balanced, kinda sweet. I’ve never tried any other steam beer before so I got nothing to compare to.
