I can only assume that the 40 I bought is of the 6% variety, considering that it matches the photo and seems to be the most common. Jeez, who knew Malt liquor was so diverse? Typical ghetto-juice here. Not nearly as bad as Steel Reserve or Olde English 800, but not as drinkable as King Cobra or Country Club. Somewhere in the middle. 8 ounces into this, and I’m already feeling buzzed. And I’ve only drank 20 cents worth; The beauty of ghetto-juice.

poured from a really catchy named "double duece" 22 oz. bottle (what the heck does ’double duece’ mean? huh? oh. never mind). light golden colored, medium white head. palate is medium bodied with a cloying sweetness. probably pretty good with pancakes.

UPDATED: JUN 9, 2008 This is ok and is rather reminiscent of Mickey’s but more alcoholic and with a somewhat stronger corn taste. It’s yellow, quite bubbly with a medium, bubbly white head that steadily dissipates to nothing. The aroma is sweet perfume, grain, corn, crackers, with a hint pf pine and a little alcohol evident - like a stronger, sweeter, more perfumy US macro lager smell. The taste is quite sweet with a lot of grain, especially corn, with a definite but not unpleasant alcoholic quality leaving a warm, acloholic, corn-tasting finish with a light bite. It has almost no bitterness and can have a light soapy quality in the end and gets a little watery. It goes all right with food. WHile hardly great and no where near even the best malt liquor, this is to me far better than a lot of other malt liquors.

Ugh! I tried this again just to see if I hate malt liquor as much as I thought. I do. Not much else to say. Aroma is sweet corn and metal. Pour is nice enough. A medium gold with a 2 finger white head. Taste was carbonated sugar water with a splash of metal. Heavy carbonation which is good so when you throw the stuff up (if you drink a whole bottle) it hurts just as much coming out as it did going in. Side note: I see this is listed as "On tap:Available". If I EVER go somewhere and they have Colt 45 on tap, I’ll smack the bartender and walk out.

i just bought this stuff because i wanted to get smuckered. it certainly did the trick. then i felt sick

All I can say is that it seemed like a good idea at the time. Cheap beer that sis the trick.

better than hurricanes. full bodied, but an ugly taste i think, why waste your time with this malt liquor.

great homeboy beer. cheap and does the job. very sweet beer, tastes like crap.
