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!

Best served in an ice cold fluted 40oz bottle. Since any hint of warmth will allow your taste buds to actually taste what you are drinking the entire beer MUST be consumed in a ratio that is inversely proportional to the heat of the drinking establishment.

We’re heading up to the cottage for the August long weekend and my girlfriend decides she’s going to drink animal beer that weekend. So she buys some Kingfisher, Dogfish Head, the turtle Rescousse, Giraf Strong, Black Sheep Ale, Mongoose, Schlitz Red Bull, and Colt 45. I double checked my database and realized that I’ve never had any Colt 45. Since I was going to help her out with some of the strong stuff anyway, I decided to write notes. Light bronze colour. The aroma is slightly cidery, vaguely malty, with some higher alcohols. Drinkable – with touches of malt alongside the expected raunch of cider and fusels. Sweet, with a hot finish. Like most malt liquors, is utterly unpalatable after the first half, when it loses the palate-deadening ice cold sensation.

Terrible. I think it's just terrible when the amount of money i have limits my beer choices to this awful thing. In other words, "it gets you f***ed up for less".

This was a birthday "present". Joy... Its cheap... it's not even that strong and any flavour that's in it is not pleasant.

I don't know what Billy Dee Williams sees in this beer other than an endorsement check. Not a malt liquor fan. Probably never will be.

I don't know how this company is still in business because this beer is horrible. Eat a can of aspirin before you have a drink because this stuff sucks.

Ahhh, the bum juice of my youth! This stuff is honest at least, made for one thing, getting drunk on the cheap! (make sure you have some aspirin at home)

ridiculous 8% version. It tastes alcohol/piss. I bet the beer dreams of being disappointing at nights since it would allow people to have minimal expectations about it
