Found a long time ago in a big plastic jug, and I was experimenting with malt liquors at the time, God knows why. It was syrupy, alcohol-ish, very sweet, but got me very drunk. I bought one and wouldn’t buy another "forty pounder" of this stuff.

Smells like piss. Clear yellow, medium white head. Tastes like rice and sweetened sewer scum. Slight malty finish. It’s awful, but I expected worse. Finishing an entire 40 oz. is an accomplishment. Maybe that’s its idiom.

Overall Impression: Unless it is taped to your hands and you have to finish 80oz in 20 minutes for the right to urinate I cannot think of another reason to drink it...

Poured from a 40. Pours a sickly pale yellow color that threw up some sizeable head. Aroma of corn and grain. Slight skunk, but less than expected. Taste is very similar to the aroma. Body is... inconsistent. Actually somewhat better than I expected.

This is like the break up with your girlfriend and go on a bender beer. Fairly strong, not that good, but in certain cases it’s just what the doctor ordered.

Heheheh, that’s right, the big olde OE 800. Has the notorius maroon label. Ubiquitous american pale lager color and appearance. Smell is not bad compared to other cheap alarming malt liquors. Actually its kinda candy like, somewhat like a sweet volatile heller. Not as coarse as nasty ice or hurricane. fairly smooth for an ass kicker. Appearance is typical pale lager with some visible sparkling going on inside there. From a 40 oz bottle, surprized to see it’s under 6%, has more of a cheap malt kick than that in the flavor. Certainly not as good as Rogue Dads Little Helper . Quiesent at first but it becomes annoying after a while. Even with only the 5.9%, typical difficult cheap malt liqour finish. However, much better than many cheap ice brews @ 5.9%. Old and English, eh?

Bottled, 40oz, thanks SHIG. Yellow colour, not much head. Aroma is maize, malts and some hops. Flavour is sweet malts, hops and also some toffeeish notes. Very clean and quite wellbalanced thing. Way better than Finnish macro stuff.

Bottle 40oz: Poured a clear color yellow with white fluffy head. The aroma was light malt. The taste is blah, but the alcohol is not overwhelming at least.
