Sleeman Premium Light

Formerly brewed at Sleeman Brewing & Malting Co. (Sapporo)
Style: Pale Lager
Guelph, Canada

I think that these ratings are a little harsh. This actually surprised me for a light lager, leaps and bounds from other lights, namely Coors and Bud. Some malty, slightly skunked, sweet aroma. Darker yellow color, little head. Kind of a candied, burnt hop taste. Fizzy and quite dry.

Not Impressed with this stuff at all. I love the clear bottle and the deep rich yellow color of the beer, but when it comes to the taste it was a skunk!

Not bad for a light beer. Sort of a strange aftertaste but is mostly inoffensive.

"Darker" than most light beers. Foamy head that slowly dissipates. Smells like a Sleeman’s Lager, but taste isn’t quite there. Oily mouthfeel. Good for a light lager.

Pours light golden with a fizz, and momentary head. Faint cereal and floral aroma. Not much to speak of in the flavor, pretty much what one would expect, basically watered-down lager. Drinkable, slightly better than most macro light beers.

yellow colour, very little head. sweet-ish aroma. big carbo. flavours are faintly sweet malt and dry. twice as good as a normal lite beer, which makes it as good as a boring lager. bleh.

Pretty good by light-standards. Not as watery as most. Does leave the mouth parched though.

This rating might actually be a little charitable. I had this beer - which is essentially unappealing in every aspect - late at night after several hours of painting a house. As a result I think it was more satisfying than it would ususally be - but I guess that's all part of the experience.
