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!

Dirty straw color with a huge off white head that slowly reduces to just a few bubbles. Grain, malt and alcohol mingle in the aroma. Light malt sweet start followed by gasoline. Yes, gasoline, just like the flavor as you siphon to much and get a splash in our mouth. Whoa nellie. Past that does it really matter. Touch of malt in the finish. and burning lingers on the tongue. And I am lucky enough to have 24 more ounces left in this lovely 32 ounce twist off cap bottle. Think I’ll boil brats and get high off the fumes. Wow, when this one warms the fumes are flammable. I think I’m about to spontaneously combust.

Less than great. Comes in a clear bottle and reeks of corn. Head is gone in a hurry and is down right gross.

Just grab a brown paper bag and give it a swig just to say you’ve done it. But why bother really. Finally tried it last month just to say I did.

Well, to describe this one, it smells of "lemon skunk," it tastes tolerable, and is about as good as Miller High Life. Oh yeah, and it has this funny little horse kicking back in the air on the front of the can. Makes for a lot of fun if you’ve had a few already (heavens, no, not a few Colt 45’s--a few of anything but that. Don’t do that to yourself.) ***Note: my overall impression score has been raised. I do not like the beer this much, but to put it in its place on my ratings list, this score has been raised to place it amongst those beers to which it is similar in its enjoyability.

I just think it is funny to drink this stuff. I felt silly buying it, but comforted by the price. The smell is raunchy horrid. Its appearance is at best mediocre. Its flavour? Well, malty of course, with alcohol, which is why it’s malt liquor. Its palate? Not really. For the price and entertainment, this receives a slightly positive review. Note the 6% ABV.

As Afroman once said, "Colt 45 and two zigzags, baby that’s all we need. We’ll go to the park after dark, and smoke that tumbleweed." Here’s to graduating- 40 oz bottle: Is an artificial gold color, looks a liitle flat. Smells like rusted corn, which is god-awful. Flavor is of vomit, corn and sugar. palate is watery at best. The second most ghetto thing I ever drank, number one being King Cobra.
