How about this for a big 24 oz blast, Colts highest ABV. Big white head pour with little visible CO2 in this pale brw. Strong and rude, much more so than any previous colt. Nasty almost gag reflex nellie. Volatile to the olfactory, dzzy halfway thru, wew. Quite sterile.

24 oz can purchased somewhere in Mission, Kansas. Poured into my Duvel tasting tulip. Pour is a clear golden with a fizzy two inch white head that falls quickly with soapy residue. Aroma is strong corn, dusty malt, along with some plastic. Taste is sweet malt, pretty harsh corn and a strong plastic wet newspaper type taste to the middle and finish. After taste is similarly dirty, and, frankly gross. Palate is thin, sort so fizzy foamy carbonation and the plastic aftertaste. This has the rare combination of being watery and boozy.

Bottle, 40oz. Pours clear gold with a mild, fizzy white head. Aroma of sweet cereal grains and sugar. Flavor is sweet with notes of syrupy sugar, corn and grains. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes sweet. Like most Malt Liquors, this beer is fine to drink as long as it stays cold.

This is the beer you see homeless people walk out of the liquor store with. The cheapest and one of the worst there is to offer.

Re-rate 11 years later just for the hoo-hah of it. Now that my palate's all attuned after thousands and thousands of the world's finest beverages, does this taste any different? Poured aggressively it has decent foam and a fakey gold body with strong carbonation. It stinks of rotting cabbage, cardboard dipped in sugar and urine. Flavour is acrid rice, nail polish remover, vague sweet grain. Mouthfeel is really really cloying and seems to line my tongue with some kind of chemically film. Yes, I think it's worse this time around - however, it can be noted that it really doesn't taste that boozy for 8%. It's the other tastes that make it awful. Sampled at 10.0 degrees celcius. Sept 14, 2009 - It was definitely the eight percent, though my memory’s foggy after actually drinking it. Very piss-poor yellow look, very sweet flavour profile, but those forty-ounce plastic bottles sure help you get wasted very quick. Yet I can’t help but think there are better ways to get very drunk very fast. This is the only reason you’d want this beverage. 1 1 3 2 5 = 1.2

Forty. No paper bag. Pours a very pale yellow with a thin creamy head. Decent head retention and fair lacing. Harsh grainy aroma with notes of sawdust and dirt. Taste is dirty water. Faint sweet malts and cereal grains. Nasty crap. Next!

Overall Impression: This is pretty crappy, I mean its a malt liquor, you buy it in a 40, how good could it be? Even in that class, this is not one of the better ones...

Sampled from a 40 oz clear bottle this beer poured dark golden with a huge soapy white head. The aroma was sweet, tart and tangy. The flavor was sweet, tart, tangy and a bit corny. The finish was long and tart. Much better than I expected but still not great.

24 oz can - Since Billy Dee Williams says this beer works every time, I had to have it for my 1400th rating. Why yes, it sucks, thanks for asking. It smells like a bit of corn and malt. It has a very light flavor that’s mainly the corn and cheap malt. It’s thin, watery, and at least not as horribly offensive as Hurricane. There’s just nothing going on here.

How about that, I thought this was 10% or something! I’m not sure what all the talk is about gettin’ buzzed on 24 oz of 6%?!! At 5.6%, it’s almost a session brew. Heheh. Big 24 oz mug from a tall towering bomber blue and white can. First I thought it smelled like cheap strong pale yellow lager but it mellows to a sweeter friendlier aroma in the mug. Certainly tastes like more than 6% , with its volatile fumes in the throat character. Not really bitter but the cheap ML flavor does tend to stick it’s little head up once in a while. You know, like the taste of milder cheap whiskey. Does have some carbonation, a little more than many craft beers. IMHO a weird coarse veggie finish.
