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!

Better than olde english but not sure why its consumed. Basically is cheap and gets you drunk. Lacks any good substance and taste. Mostly overpowered by the malt taste with little else. However, that being said, It is probably the best out of the cheap malt liquors.

This beer will always be in my heart, since it was the first legal beer I ever consumed. Pours gold, with some white fizz. Smells like creamed corn. Tastes like moldy bread and grass. Doesn’t offend the palate too much, so it’s perfect for binge drinking or chillin’ on the street corner with one’s homies. Ah memories.

24 oz can - Since Billy Dee Williams says this beer works every time, I had to have it for my 1400th rating. Why yes, it sucks, thanks for asking. It smells like a bit of corn and malt. It has a very light flavor that’s mainly the corn and cheap malt. It’s thin, watery, and at least not as horribly offensive as Hurricane. There’s just nothing going on here.

24 ouncer poured into bottle. Surprisingly not as bad I would have thought. Inoffensive in any way. Not good though.
