KAggie97 (1924), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Jul 31, 2008 Bottle from some store in Oregon. Since my dad was considered a "bear" in the gay community, I drank this in honor of him. (And yes, he is chuckling at the gesture!) Pours what tries to be a decent yellow. A nice head sits atop the effort, and an aroma of sweet corn malt is emitted from the beverage. Flavor is sweet corn syrup and sour candy malt. Watery mouthfeel. R.I.P., Dad. You earned it. JPDIPSO (4290), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA May 25, 2008 Immediately thought of Mike when I saw this, so I had to pick it up in his honor. I can only guess this is 40 ounces of malt liquor nirvana. Straw color with a thin lid of white bubbles. Some pale and lightly toasted malt, green beans and hint of herbal hops. I have certainly smelt brews that are much worse. Sweet start with some corn syrup and hints of grain. Fairly fizzy feel, but I can only imagine what a sticky mess this stuff might be if it were to warm-up. I’m certain, this will only rise a few degrees prior to hitting the drain. Grain continues into the middle. Finish has a light alcohol and some metal. Finish is quite metallic as well. Quite not good, but far from some of the worst out there. patricks110 (176), Alberta, Canada Mar 28, 2008 Good for a forty, but otherwise terrible. Only good for getting buzzed. Bitter finish but overly sweet as well. BBB63 (3810), La Porte, Indiana, USA Jan 18, 2008 Fine then, as a joke (I think) a friend bought me a bottle of this. So here we go as the beer pours into my pint glass showing a clean golden hue and a lasting frothy head and even some lace. The aroma has notes of CORN and CABBAGE with a lovely fusel alcohol wrath. The taste is not any fricken better with a gosh awful DMS sweetness and lovely plastic medicinal phenolic mess. I almost barfed but kept it in check. Worse is that the one aspect of this thing that tastes like beer is a lot of sweet malt which sadly dominates the after taste. Well the mouth feel is fizzy. Taking one for the team I some how finished my pint glass. This is one big BAD bear, I am so ashamed. bjl8691 (60), racine, Wisconsin, USA Nov 25, 2007 has the sent of jet fuel nasty beer horrile after drinking a 40 of this i had a headache almost instantly bad beer for a good price
