I dedicatedly rate high-quality beers for two years and somehow this is what comes up for my #1000 rating. I have Frankenkitty to thank for that dubious distinction.<BRBR><BRBR>Fluorescent pour, looking like radioactive hospital waste. Maybe that’s why they keep the bottle in the bag? The sample was cold, which thankfully cut down on any strong or objectionable odors. Some very promising mineral spirits fumes are noticable, however. I aggresively pour a sample into the recommended glassware for the style and watch a fairly volitile carbonation generate a substantial white foamy head which collapses just as quickly into a mildly polluted oily slick. Again some paint thinner fumes, but not terribly offensive. The first taste does not, surprisingly, trigger a much anticipated gag reflex. Main initial flavors are corn and other adjuncts, some of which might very well be inorganic. Some alcohol burn on the throat. Not as terrible as I feared. The hell with the glass, gimme that bottle! I grab it away from my buddy. A big deep swig, then another even bigger this time...I’m getting into this! And as I pass it back to Frankenkitty, I can actually see some of my oily backwash slide back down inside the bottle neck and mix with the rest of the "likka". Enjoy the male bonding, my fellow Bowery Boy, it don’t get much better than this! I’m actually feeling a rap coming on...
I know I’m white...but that ain’t my fault, I still love to suck on that "fody" of malt. Shut the f*ck up and you might stay alive, or I’ll bus’ a cap in your ass from my Colt 45. This here is word up to that honky, Slim Shady, "YO, I just slipped sumthin’ phat into your old lady!" I’ve heard y’aller down with the OPP, but you don’t know sh*t ’bout the LoSBD! So when you see this Powermaster drinkin’ Midnight dragon, Nighthawk, or the Panther...Show some respect, muthaf*cker, rudeness is never the answer!
Thank god the race to 1000 is over...my liver couldn’t take much more of that! And we can finally dispense with that lame Frankenkitty vs. RAYBOY01 in-rating "Flame War" juvenile bullshit! What a waste of time...and not even all that funny, either!
Hey Joe, last one to #2000 is a slightly overweight pusillanimous dilettante with silly facial hair!!!

Jun 29, 2009 24 oz can. Pours a pale straw yellow with average head. Aroma is grain, corn. Taste is corn and sugar it had a suprisingly sweet malt taste. It would have been better ice cold. It ’s not the worst malt liquor, and it was better than i thought it was going to be

does not count  Jun 19, 2009 If you like thick, bready beers, move to europe. Colt 45 for me is the epitome of an easy-to-drink, thirst-quenching and refreshing beer. Ice cold (minimum 20 minutes in the freezer prior to drinking, and served in an iced mug) and at the end of a hot summer’s day, a colt 45 is really a sublime experience. The bubbles tickle the throat as it goes down, and it’s very easy to polish off a 22 in several sips as thirst, and the day’s stresses and troubles, are put to rest for the evening. I honestly have a difficult time understanding those who give this beer such bad reviews. What would they prefer to drink with salted peanuts, pretzels, pizza, or a shishkabob---guinness.....??? Oh, one final note---the fact that colt 45 is a full dollar more per 22 than the competing brands indicates to me that this truly is the king of malt liquors.

Jun 15, 2009 This is an okay malt liquor. Stay away from the clear bottles, and stick with the canned versions. Goes well with salad, steak, and potatoes. Good when ice cold.

Jun 11, 2009 Drink this if you want to get wasted. It is your premeir malt liquor, very carbonated and watery. You can tell that it’s almost like they add alcohol at the end just for fun.

Jun 10, 2009 Fun for Edward forty hands. But it’s a feet to finish the beers before they get up to room temperature. It’s a typical malt liquor and you can’ really rate this beer because it’s sole purpose was to be cheap and get you drunk in which it does both. but still tastes bad.

May 13, 2009 Morgan’s tasting, 07MAR09. Plastic screw top 40, as it should be. Clear gold with a fizzy white head. Nose is boozy grain and malt. Crappy sweet corny and boozy, but somehow not nearly as bad as I imagined.

Apr 25, 2009 I disliked this beer more than any beer I’ve ever had. The aroma was not pleasing in the slightest sense. The taste was very watery and tastes like water mixed with artificial sweetener. I couldn’t even finish more than a few sips before I had to throw it down the sink.

Apr 2, 2009 Tall can at OTT. I can’t ever remember seeing this in stores around here and my curiosity got the best of me. Super pale, lasting head (poured it into a plastic 32oz cup to allow generous headspace and room to get my nose in and savor the glorious aroma). Chemical fusel aroma. The flavor is just plain dirty, with lots of adjuncts, sugar, and higher alcohols. Hard to finish.
