Commercial Description:
Remarkably smooth for a full-flavoured beer. Our founder's intention was to combine the refreshing taste of a German lager with the distinctive taste of an English Ale without blending the two.

The grassy hop aroma expected from a light lager. The brassy gold color and frothy white head you’d expect from a lager. A bit thin bodied. Not bad. The level of bitter is indeed what one might expect from an English bitter, and the accompanying malt is not inappropriate. Something of a mule, in the hybrid sense. However, it is surprisingly drinkable. Interesting essay.

Botte. There was nothing creamy about it! Boozy and towards the bitter end of the spectrum. Did I get a bad bottle? What were they thinking?

Malty sweet smell. Light lager look. Something doesn’t taste right here. It has a slight bitterness (that’s okay) and has a sour bite to it I cannot describe. It’s not a pleasant beer. Feels like a light lager. It kinda sucks... I think I want to change my buddweiser rating to make it better because of this.

Rated 5/27/06: Simple is good with this one. Pours a medium light golden yellow with a thin white head and good carbonation. Aroma is subtle, creamy, and light with a slight malt nose. Mouthfeel is good and filling with a crisp finish. Flavor is very appealing. Easy simple and delicious, nice beer.

Yellow. I taste a little corn like flavor. I don’t get much creaminess. Free beer.

Drinkable, but not the best Sleeman beer. Has a nice malt favour with subtle hops.

Pours yellow to light gold. Sweet corn & rice smells mix with a sour? smell. Taste is starchy sweetness with a little skunkiness. A hint of bitterness and alcohol at the finish. As it warms the starchy sweetness is more pronounced. Very little body to speak of.

Not bad. Yellow. light head and a bit of lace after tilting the glass. Well carbonated. Some malt and hops but corn too. Clean. Drinkable. Bittersweet. Bitter finish. from the Between the Bluffs fest.
