Sleeman Silver Creek Lager

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

20 oz draught. Pours a clear gold with a moderate white diminishing head. A little grain and some sweetness in the aroma. Sweet, almost metallic taste. Not overly impressive.

Sampler. I’m glad I had a sampler of this. Typical carbonated lager. Metallic, sweet and pretty much tastes the same as all the others.

bouteille transparente de 341ml. bière lager blonde commerciale. couleur blé pâle très pâle avec mousse chimique épaisse, mais qui ne dure pas. nez vert de houblon mort, la bouche est du même acabit, verte, râche et désagréable. sans intérêt.

Gave this one a very generous rating earlier, cottage’s can cloud your judgment of beer (which is not a bad thing). Still, a pretty solid lager that seems underrated.

33 cl bottle, Fargo. Very light straw colour, slightly skunky aroma. Sweet flavor, faint maltiness, nothing special.

Not much taste here, but has enough flavour to distinguish it from the rest of the macro beers.

12 oz bottle. This was sold to me as a Silver Creek Lager, but I wouldn’t swear to it, there is no way to tell from the bottle what it is. Nowhere on the bottle does it mention anything other than Sleeman. Clear bottle and amber beer. Obviously bottle conditioned due to the layer of yeast on the bottom. Small off white head and a bit of actual lacing. Aroma of sweet mild malt. Flavor is sweet and mild, with a nice malty texture. Very little hops or bitterness. Very mellow and easy drinking. Certainly nothing remarkable, but decent and drinkable. Reminds me of Newcastle.

Bottle, from Rhythm & Booze in Brigg. Gold, thin white head and good condition. Gentle grain and a faint hoppy bitterness in the nose, low bitter hop and fruity malt in the mouth and a low grainy bitter chalkiness in the finish.
