Color is brownish golden yellow, some big bubbles for the head that fizz out fast. Smells of strong sweet honey and malts. Taste echoes the smell. Smooth with a honey hop tangyness thats a little rough at first and ends with a nice malt coating. Quite drinkable and flavored honey lager, better then most I've had.

(from the bottle). Medium brown. Not terribly sweet, but light on malt notes and no hops to speak of.

Begins sweet,fizzy and hoppy.Somewhat skunky (due to clear bottle?). Pleasant enough, but aren't there enough of these 'lagers' around? Nothing special. The name 'honey brown' markets well, I suppose.

I didnt expect too much from this, and my expectations were not exceeded. Not the worst thing you will come across, but not very good

The taste on tap is a whole different ballgame from in the bottle...on tap it's actually pretty refreshing, in the bottle it tastes skunky, but palatable for the price.

Dark golden color with a cream colored thin lid of foam. Light dry honey, minimal malt and carrot aromas. Initial flavors of week tea followed by a light honey sweetness, mild malt and touch of corn. Better than the other Sleeman products I've tried, but thats not saying much.

Seemed like it taste much better in Canada. Sort of a dirty flavor, with a nice dose of honey. Really nice color and appearance in general. It's tasty but nothing to write home about. As a sidenote, the guy in Canada told me this was a microbrew!! BS!!!!!!
