If you’re looking for a thick 40, or an ice cold shorty, Colt 45 is the malt liquor that works EVERYTIME!

During a beer tasting we tried this one. Remembrances of the teenage years. Really not so bad. A great palate cleanser! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

4/27/13. 40oz bottle thanks to Unclerudy. Traded a Hunahpu’s for this because fuck you. Skunk and sweet malty stomach acid all over, but not bad.

355ml bottle. Pours gold with a medium head. Aroma is sweet, lemon, icing sugar and grape. Taste has corn, little grape and washing up water on the finish.

Got this in a nice 40. Double the malts but 5.61? Y bro? Whatever. This one is great for the 5% range. Corn, some grape, a bit of musty basement, and a definite hop edge on this one. Dirty but in a good way. Dry, clean finish. Not bad.

Ibrew2or3 (5823) - Tempe, Arizona, USA - OCT 16, 2012
That’s right!! 24oz can (and yes, sadly not a screw top 40, darn it) pours crystal clear watery gold with somewhat loose white head of foam. The aroma has cereal to corn flake like notes mixing with sugary floral hops followed by a huge mound of powder sugar. The taste is somewhat sweet and sugary and floral as well as sticky syrupy apple juice. In amid the nearly harmless flavor notes lurks some chemical booze to take you to a certainly all malt liquor finish. You need this.

Golden yellow color with a medium white head. Some citrus and grassy notes. Dry finish. Drinkable.

ryanfolty (1464) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - MAR 9, 2012
Date: March 9, 2012 Mode: Bottle Source: BVery Description: Translucent yellow with some head and lacing surprisingly. Aroma was grain and taste was pretty much the same but not much there. A little dry in the finish makes this a tad worse than the regular.

Bottle. Clear yellow pour with a large foamy white head. Water, grain, and...and...uh, that’s it. Bleh.

It poured a golden color with a small white head. The aroma was of sweet corn and little else. The taste was sweet corn and little else. You don’t know until you try it.

Pale lager month installment number five brings us a bottle of beer that has been used to hold up a shelf in my fridge for some time now, I decided it was my destiny to open it this evening. Pours a golden color with a big tight white head and nice lacing, looks about as good as a malt licka can! Aroma is mild, a little corny, a little breakfast cereal, but really only a precious little of both. The mild malty aroma is nice. The flavor is malty, in a sort of sweet sort of lightly toasty way. The usual corn and cereal take a back seat with this one, without loosing the sort of sharpness, the mild tartness, and alcohol flavor one attributes with the style. Sort of a classy malt liquor if you ask me, has a fuller mouthfeel than most. Enjoyable in it’s own right. "Suck it Bitches"
