Sleeman Silver Creek Lager

Brewed by Sleeman Brewing & Malting Co. (Sapporo)
Style: Pale Lager
Guelph, Canada

This one has a sweet nose with traces of vinegar & vanilla. Palate brings cream and more vanilla with bitterness and a touch of citrus that suggest hops. Fairly light past this and the finish is lightly breaded. Interesting touch of cloudiness in the pale yellow colour. Very lightly carbonated.

Typical Sleeman pale lager. No head; sweetish, grainy, yet somehow smooth and tolerable.

Left over bootle from daves stag pours the usuall pale yellow with a small whit head no lacing The aroma is corn and wet hay again pretty much the usual The taste is a lot better then would be expected quite smooth and refreshing But alas it is a pale lager

Bouteille 341ml. De couleur dorée et claire. Nez de grains de malt pâle sucrés avec des notes de houblon herbeux et des traces de pain. Mince-moyenne en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-fort et un peu croustillant ainsi qu’une texture aux faibles notes crémeuses. Goût de grains de malt pâle lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût de grains plus sucrés avec de faibles notes de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve des notes amères de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) ainsi que des traces métalliques. Post-goût court et aux petites notes asséchantes, avec de faibles notes amères de houblon herbeux.

Bottle: Been trying to avoid this one but buddy brings some over for the CFL game. Pours a clear pale gold, small fast vanishing cap, heavy carbonation poor lacing. Very faint odor of stale cereals and wet cardboard. Taste is bland, more of a watery stale mealy taste rather than fresh sweet malt, hops are non existant, fast clean uneventful finish. I may have gotten a stale dated bottle but frankly I can’t find the interest to get another for a re-taste.

"Smells like pure crap, the power stink coming from this bottle is awful its smells like fermenting skunk. Standard boring pale lager look, gold body, noisy white cap that reduced to a glob of flem floating in my glass. The power stench has now faded to just a horrid concoction of dark malts, corn, and skunky hops reminds me of Euro lagers. Taste is also reminiscent of the dreaded Euro lager, corn, darker malts, skunky hops, with a sweet metallic finish and this all somehow tastes fake. Mouth fell was crisp and dry so it has that going for it. Worst Sleeman’s by far!!!"

another fine sleeman product! seriously how many clear pale lagers can one brewery make!?!?! Sleeman must have 4-5 of these! no doubt they are all the freakin same. i’m not even going to bother giving a description, ifyou’ve had one you havd them all.

341ml bottle.
Golden yellow beer with a small white head that fades quite fast. Aroma of grains and some hops. Sweet bready flavour throughout. Not too bad.
