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!

This bad boy was the final in a personal colt tasting I treated myself last week. Thanks to Joe for providing this so that I might come full circle. Pours a deeper orangey gold. Head is short lived and is a clear sign of the adjuncts used. Fruity aroma is unpleasant. Like rancid orange peels. Fuesels are here with creamed corn and stale malts. Oily, orangey nastiness with malty off flavours reminding me of what I would expect paper to taste like. It’s only 1% higher than the 7%, and far more offensive. Thanks Joe, but no thanks!

The 8% was far better, but due to complaints from community groups due to proof and pricing is no longer available in Ontario, only the weakened 7% is. Reminds me of summers when i was in my teens..far less harsh then the 7% taste wise but still not for everyone, and hell 3 of these in 90 mins got my good and buzzed.

Honestly, I think the taste is pretty dandy. The spices in it are dangerous, and good. Its strong, and good to get drunk if you get enough, Its very cheap. thats what i like most

Colt 45, works every time! I just don’t suggest bringing it to a high powered lunch with high level executives unless you are robbing the place.
