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!

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.

It’s all about expectations. If you’re going into a 1.18L bottle of Colt45 8% thinking you’re gonna enjoy a nice, refreshing, quiet, "sit at home watching cold case files" drink you’re gonna be let down. If you go into this bottle thinking you’re gonna end up laying down in places people don’t usually lay down in by the end of the night, you’re gonna be pleased. I’m pretty sure every bottle comes with a complimentary rugby-playing troupe of frat boys. Smells like a bad wine. Deep yellow colour, very tiny head, serves no purpose. Taste isn’t bitter at all, very sweet, very malty. The good thing about this beer is that it’s applicable to almost any situation in which you’re looking to get drunk. I’ve sipped this in the dead of an Alberta winter night, -25 celcius, and it was just the same as it always is. The funny thing is this is cheaper than a lot of beers that taste worse than it. The bottle is 2.5 pints of a strong, not all that bad tasting, malt liquor that costs $4.25 Canadian. Cheap drunk, that’s what it’s there for.

Not the best tasting beer, but it’s good if your out for a night with friends. And also, it’s a cheap drunk. Taste is OK, but I’ve tasted better.

Colt .45 "STRONG BEER" Well the slogan proved to be true as I was feeling wasted after only 1 and a half pint. This beer tasted more malty than I expected but I guess thats why they include it in the title. Short head, sweet flowery undertones. Strong alcohol finish. Not as bad as I was anticipating.

Can’t go wrong with a 40 ouncer of this stuff! There isn’t much of a cheaper way to go if your objective is to get a little bit tipsy.
