About
We’ve always relied on our wits to give us an edge. We tried things others wouldn’t and refused to let being smaller keep us from thinking big. To become masters of our craft, we had to be pretty darned crafty. This spirit is at the heart of everything we do—and in every drop we brew.

Canette 355ml. Couleur cuivrée pâle translucide, mousse blanc cassé fugace. Arôme de malt, caramel léger, sucré. Goût de caramel, miel subtil, céréales, maìs? Carbonatation moyenne, corps moyen-faible. Probablement la meilleure offrande de Sleeman.

May 2008: Very suprised to see this beer on the shelves of a cheap, cut price store in Shropshire. No other Canadian beers to be seen. This was a brown 341ml bottle and I poured it into a stemmed Corsendonk tulip glass. Deep golden/amber colour, good white head. Looked like a Dort, except the head soon began to leave. The aroma was sweet, toffee and honey mix, not overpowering, but there for all to smell. Very pleasant drink, a little sweet for some maybe, but I liked it. Overal I thought this OK, honey beers are becoming more common and this one was better than a few I’ve had the misfortune to try. I will have a few more if there are any left when I revisit the shop.
