Gordon Titanium reveals an extreme strength of flavor that’s somewhere between steel and sweetness. Immaculately clad in its grey-flecked jacket, this XXX Strong can beer presents a velvet fist and a manly elegant taste, weighting at 14% alcohol by volume.

Gordon Finest Titanium has a resolute, persuasive flavor and conceals beneath its dazzling white foam the harsh beauty of the moors and the immutable character of the crags of bonnie Scotland.

OK, the reviews I’ve read here got me interested. Bought a half litre can at Supercor in Madrid, and I’m about to open it as I write this down. Wait a sec... Done. First: it pours copper-ish yellow, just like Red Bull or some such energy drink. Letting it fall from a fair height makes it have some inches of white head, but it lasts about one second before fading away for good. Quite reasonable, assuming the huge alcohol contents. Now, let’s smell it... Right, I can only find one scent at first: that of an apple you’ve half eaten, leaving the core with all those huge black seeds, and you’ve forgotten it overnight on the plate and then found the next day all brown and funky. That’s the exact aroma, and no other seems to appear as time goes by. And now, for the final act, let’s taste this brewski... Wow! This is bad, just like some cheap vodka mixed with cider or something. Makes you feel sick. So... you were all right out there on your reviews. Pure strong crap, wrapped in a silver flashy can. Worst beer I ever had, I seriously don’t think I’ll be able to finish it (even if I were, I don’t think I’d be willing to). On the other side, it’s gonna make a hell of a tale to my mates, and surely they’ll run and try it just for kicks. Will you?

Kupljena u Brainconeu u Francuskoj. Pio sam ju iz limenke tako da nemam predodžbu o izgledu. Međutim, sve ostalo što prevladava u ovome je alkohol. Ovih 14% je stvarno nešto prejako. Srećom pa nisam sam pio cijelu. :-) Strašno jaka piva.

Canned 500ml. -from Coop (near) Verbier, Switzerland. Golden coloured, minimal white head, soft alcohol in the nose. Sweet malty and heavy alcoholic that kills almost everything else except glucose syrup with boozy finish. Ufffff...I simply love Gordon Finest Collection. Respect.

Can . Pours clear blonde , small and intantly fading-to-nothing white head , making it look like applejuice from seconds after the pour . Smell ? It stinks . Thats for sure . Chemical, boiled vegetables , Cleaning products ,.... the whole damn thing . Taste is starting off bitter , with a sweet back ( malty ) Than the booze comes . And with booze , I mean booze . Warms up the troat completely ( almost like drinking a 40 % vodka ) . The boozyness ruins your tastebuds . Leaving a metallic ( ! ) sweetness . I got to the second sip . i dare you to do more than that ! The exact beer I can see being very succesfull with people who just fancy alcohol over taste . Homeless people . Drunks . Rednecks . For me ? I just feel sorry for putting my drains trough this torture . One of the worst damn things I ever tried . I wonder how many chemical mess and additives and other shit this 1 can contain, to make a 14 % beer have the same boozyness than a 40 % liquor ??? The aftertaste of metallicness stays lingering for a damn long time as well . I feel sorry for myself, for even having tried this . i feel myself getting unhealthy . I hear my lever wishing me dead . I know my wallet is thinking I told you so . I suppose Homeless people are wondering why I give this to my drains and not to the ones ’in need ’ . I think that no malts were hurt in the making of this beer . Some might conclude I am not a fan of this beer ....

Can, 0.50l, shared with 5 colleagues. Clear deep golden color with very oily appearance, small creamy white head and average visible carbonation. Aroma of alcohol, medicine, vegetables and grass. Tastes like a dozen of sugar lumps dissolved in alcohol. There is some dried fruity acidity, but warm alcoholic mouthfeel is too strong to taste anything else. Medium body, syrupy texture and lively carbonation in palate. Can appearance is definitely this beer’s top characteristic...

Clear yellow colour, white head. Very artificial taste of alcohol, sugar and sweeteners. This is very bad.
