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!

Bottle- Pours sparkling gold with a short lived white fizz. No real lace, or retention. The aroma is feusels and wet paper, with vegetable/pineapple...urgh. Tastes pretty vegetal, there’s some weird malty sweetness and it kinda tastes like creamed corn or some other metallic tinned veggies. There’s a bite in the finish, but It is not really from the hops. Pretty rough.

What did you really expect here? This 7% is the same as the others (6 and 8%) just in the middle alcohol wise. sharp pissy and metallic. Not good at all. Still, in the day, I’d pound these. Keep it real!

My friend, who was short on money, bought this with getting a cheap drunk on in mind. Well, he probably should’ve stuck to some $2 wine or something. Just an awful taste, an awful beer. Kind of funny though. Hmm, odd that he got what seems to be the rarest of the Colt 45’s...

710 mL can purchased from The Beer Store in Guelph, ON. Brewed by Silver Creek Brewery in La Crosse, WI, USA according to the can. All in all a pretty awful beer. Pours a straw colour with very little head that fades to nothing. Initial aroma is of sewer gas. Taste is pungent corn syrupiness. Very sweet. Not overly carbonated. I regret drinking from a glass, it would have been better to drink from the can to mask the taste. Better cheap beers out there if you want to pretend to be a hobo for the night.
