Had on draft @ the Olde Angel Inn in Canada .. . pours a nice copper .. medium foam . . . i think Sleeman would do better if they changed their name to anything but Sleeman. . . light sweetness .. not offensive, seems on point.. . . why is there a giant lawn on my tv screen that seems to be walking and talking?

The year is 2008 and I am a Canadian living in London. Trafalgar Square.. Canada, I haven't seen tims or sleeman in years, and honey brown is on tap! There Canadian comics and musicians, the atmosphere is more than festive. The homeless guy near me complements Canadian brews. This beer rocks! Fast forward three and a half years, and I'm living in Kamloops and a friends girlfriend is drinking this, and I say, I have never reviewed this let me try! Afterall, Im the local beer geek.... Skunk, fake honey, malt extract, dirty fermented water and not yummy at all. Really skunky, actually so much that the sleeman drinking companion who donated this beer for my review notices it without me... yuk!

Pours a nice clear copper with a good sized off white head that left good amounts of lace on the glass. Offers a creamy well bodied mouthfeel. Slight honey hints but mainly sweet malt. Overall a good beer.

This is another of the beers I tried on a recent trip to Canada. The barmaid played this one up bigtime, and everytime that happens, you know it will disappoint. The bottle is clear, and embossed. This is apparently a calling card for this brewery. It is a honey gold in color, which I guess is keeping in tradition with the honey in the name. There is a little honey in the aroma, but this beer is mainly malt. Hop profile is weak. This is another crisp lager with good carbonation. The taste is a nice balance of the malt with a nice bitter finish. The honey comes away in a distant 3rd place in the taste profile. A very refreshing beer, but not a world-beater (the barmaid's words, not mine)

This beer offers a deep golden color, smooth and full-bodied taste, and just a hint of honey on the palate. The mouthfeel is pleasant and has a hint of honey. Overall, I thought this beer would taste too much like honey but I was wrong. It is a beer that is easy to drink and is pleasant as well.

clear orange- yellow colour with a thin white head. small carbonation, tiny bubbles but heavily malted (in my opinion.) semi sweet, honey flavor is pretty noticeable but kind of stale. sorry, but sleeman brews don't really excite me.

The first Sleeman's product I tried was awesome, so I had to try this one. And what a great decision that was. Slightly darker than the Cream Ale with a nutty aroma that had hints of honey. It was dancing on the tongue, slightly thick with mild carbonation. The taste is mildly malty with hints of honey and nuts.

This is great tasting beer. It pours an orangy red colour with a slight head. The aroma is nice and malty with a hint of honey. It works well on the cheeks with mild carbonation (unlike Sleeman Cream Ale which is way too fizzy). The taste is crisp and clear with hints of fruit and honey. Goes down well and tastes great with barbecued ribs.

Bottle snagged from the "singles" bargain bin at the LCBO. Poured a light amber lager in the stein with a decent 2 finger head . Poor cap retention but the surface foam laces the glass well. Aroma is better than most Sleeman products...at least you can smell some bready sweet grains in this with a light wisp of hay. Nice chew of malt up front, fair body, some sweetness, some bready toastiness , some woody-herbal tones from hops...mmmm decent...and that damnable Sleeman signature corn dextrin taste show up to ruin the finsh. This was a decent take on a Vienna lager until that corny dextrine sweetness showed up ( no honey to speak of) ... too bad, they had something going here. Having put this off because I never felt compelled to buy a 12 just to taste this bland brewers full line, I am somewhat surprised this beer came so close to being a real vienna lager then crashing and burning so badly in the final moments....to bad. We need a good Vienna around here, but this isn’t it.... BTWI I have no idea why the site would list this as a dunkel. Style dyslexia?
