Country Club Malt Liquor

In the can. Found these in East TN. It’s like getting reaquainted with an old friend. An old smelly sleazy friend. This is the beer that I always ordered when visiting the South of the Border Pedro’s Coffee Shop. I suppose that my favorite thing is the "XXX" logo inside a little red oval on the label. Pretty potent still, aroma of mostly alcohol but the taste has a strong skunky sweetness with no body. A six of this will get you where you’re going real quick. Originally "Goetz’s" Country Club made in St. Joe, we can still find vintage empty bottle around here in antique stores. Why is this beer not being marketed in the KC/St. Joe area? What a lost retro opportunity!

This was a cheap beer that allowed for a cheap buzz. If you are in ebt with cash and want a cheap buzz, seek this out.

Clear yellow color with a small white head. Corn and slight vomit aroma. Taste was watery, but fairly non-offensive for a malt liquor. Corn and faint malt flavors. Not as tereible as I expected!

Golden color with a small, soapy white head. The aroma was an unpleasant mix of corn, vomit, and sweet malt. The flavor was just as bad without as much vomit. Crisp feel...a little slimy.

This is one of the better malt liquors with the least amount of that cloyingly sweet/corny tast....C'mon friends! This is MALT LIQUOR and should be served in that spirit. Load up a tumbler with ice and fill up with malt liquor..good stuff! Here in Riverside County, Country Club is only available at Stater Bros. supermarkets. $3.49 for a six-pack of pounders. Also very good with V-8 juice.

Head is initially small, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain), trace hops (herbs), with a hint of DMS. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter, slightly husky. Light to medium body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. Wow, it's nicely balanced with bitterness and reasonably clean tasting apart from a little grainy character.

40 oz. bumper bottle. Man, this stuff is still terrible after all these years. I wasn't even aware they still made this varnish remover anymore. I saw it in the store yesterday, and it brought back many memories I'd sooner rather forget. Memories of passing out under a bridge when I was a teenager, etc. But, I digress. Back to this shi...er...beer.This stuff is a fake, sickly looking yellow color with silver highlights. So help me, silver highlights. How in the hell do you make a silver beer? Anyway, it's meant to be drunk from the bottle, and fast. Metallic smelling as well as tasting. Bitter, but not a pleasant hop bitterness, more a solvent type bitterness. This is the best drain cleaner I ever had. It is so bad, they should outlaw this crap. I kid you not, it is horrid.

Average malt liquor, not too foul. Standard adjunct loaded flavor and cheap alcohol flavor. Somewhat smooth.
