Draft. Clear golden color, fluffy white head. Aroma of cereal and light lemon. Taste starts sweet, lightly bready. OK.

Tap at Farmhouse Tap & Grill, VT. It pours lightly hazy golden - amber with a decent white head. The nose is soft, sweet, malty, sweetcorn, toasty grain, alcohol and bread. The taste is big alcohol boost upfront, corn, white bread, rubbing alcohol, cornbread, floral, spice, grass and some green vegetables with a warming, boosty finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty drinkable stuff, which gets ya boosted. Grade A malt liqueur fo sure.

Growler: Corn nose. Hazy amber, thin head with almost no retention. Intense corn and hay. Grass finish. No fusel alcohol. Medium body, easy carbonation. One of the very few malt liquors I’ve actually enjoyed.

Pale golden Aroma is nice. Bitter, good pine and orange aroma. Clean taste, sweet, actually a bit of ethanol taste

Willrunforbeer beer with the share. 32 oz. Bottle was NOT placed in a brown paper bag. Clear gold color with lasting head. Aroma is corn husk, yeast, straw.
The body is medium side with big corn finish. Dear lord, this is one bad ass malt liquor. Could be the smoothest I ever had. Could be the best ever... Perhaps I need to try more.

Poured from 32oz bottle thanks Willrunforbeer for the Ratebeer Farmhouse Magnum Tasting. Clear golden pour with a one finger white head. Aromas of corn bread and citrus. Taste is moderate sweet and follows aroma.

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: pours orange with a white head. Aroma is citrus and corn and bread. Taste is citrusy and kind os soapy in a citrus dish soap kind of way. Body is super light in apite of the high alcohol. Weird...

Draught at Foundry on Elm SmuttGash event, 5/28/15
Light blonde ale with some brassy tinges and a good amount of white head. Clarity and retention are high.
Malty in the nose with perfumey alcohol notes and soft, floral hops sitting lightly in the background. The sugars are fairly well-attenuated and I’m not getting all that much corn; certainly wouldnt pick it out blind. I think a lot of people would judge this differently blind.
The flavor is on the more dry side, though some sweetness certainly remains, mixing with alcohol to create a very floral, poignant, almost sharp note (biting in to a honeysuckle, lilacs, violets). Incredibly smooth, near silky texture with ample carbonation. Just like Liquor de Malt, proof that corn is not an inferior adjunct when used respectfully (more or less, like any other potential ingredient). Loved the stuff, woulda had another.

Tastes of corn, malt, toffee, light vanilla, and grapefruit skin. Still has the malt liquor bite to it. Buzz is justbright after polishing tnis bottle. Best malt liquor I’ve had to date.
