Bouteille transparente de 341 ml. La bière est de couleur dorée-cuivrée avec une belle mousse blanche qui reste. Au nez on respire des arômes des arômes de moufettes, de grain et de houblon floral. En bouche le corps est mince avec une effervescence moyenne. On goute le grain, le houblon floral dégradé en moufette avec des notes caramélisées et acide.

Poured from bottle. Lots of thick head. Nice golden color. Malty smell and taste. Very drinkable, but nothing special really.

Overall, not too bad, but is overall a disapointing effort for a 20th anniversary beer. Aroma of cheap and yeasty malts. Taste is plain, malty and overall not pleasant. Overall, a pretty bad effort for a special occasion

On tap. Wow, couldn’t they have drummed up something a little more interesting for their 20th anniversary? The answer is, ";of course not."; Flat, grainy, low-alcohol yet kind of boozy, and that famous washed-out ";blah"; taste I’ve come to know from Sleeporo. My server was kind enough to pour me a sample before I picked something else, so that was a pretty sweet deal...

Draught at Rectory Cafe, Wards Island. Surprisingly not bad. Pint is rusty amber with fake soapy head, Good fine carbonation. Aroma yeasty and prickly, hints fruit. Taste fruity esters, cherry, hints of lemon. Hops are strange making the hop finish indistinct. Has some of that yesty-fizzy-chemically Sleeman genericness. This makes the palate a bit soapy and drying further into the pint. But do try it.
