Commercial Description:
For over 4 decades, Colt 45 Premium Malt Liquor has been the "class of all malt liquor brands". With its smooth and distinct flavor and historic affiliation with Billy Dee Williams, it has become an urban American icon. If you’re looking for a thick 40, or an ice cold shorty, Colt 45 is the malt liquor that works EVERYTIME!

Billy Dee Williams must’ve been smoking crack when he recommended this one. Nasty piece of shit beer with stinging adjunct nastiness.

This is not a good beer but there are worst out there. Has a nice golden color and high alcohol. Has good head retention, high carbonation. I just can’t really stomach this though, I prefer higher gravity beers to be a tad sweeter. It was somewhat famous back in the day among celebs mainly due to lack of choice for high alcohol beer I guess.

I prefer the taste when I start to throw up a little in my mouth and swallow it back down real quick to this nasty stuff. Tip this one to your homies cause it aint worth putting in your mouth. I have no street cred.

I sampled this "beer" for 2 reasons. One, I saw so many craft beer malt liquors like Dogfish Head, that I decided I should try this first, and two, I felt it would be a good idea to recalibtae the senses and remember what a bad beer is. This beer blows. This was almost a DP (drain pour), which for me is the ultimate insult, as it is sinful to waste beer. The aroma was like a typical pale lager, corn and some malt, with a slight fecal like skunkiness. The color was standard for a pale lager as well. Some alcohol on the nose. The "flavor" was completely bland, and again similar to a bad pale lager. Nothing at all on the palate, which in the case of this beer is actually merciful. Again, enjoy this beverage every so often only to remind oyurself of what a bad beer is, when criticizing other beers.

Been looking for this for weeks. Hard to find around Sacramento. Now I got my own TWO FOUR. Whoo. Have not had this in decades. Aroma is kind of dusty, has pale malt, and arguably a hint of hop. The color is pale brassy gold, and the white head didn’t hold up well. Thin to medium body with fizzy/creamy carbonation. The flavor is pale malt, and any hop is just a dream. The finish is actually clean, and some hop does build. Probably one of the better macro malt liquors.
