0.8 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
24 oz. can. Had so many 4.0+ beers lately, I need to reset my palate with something like this. And this is exactly that something. First, it does look a little darker than some pansy-ass Heineken. But there’s a nausea inducing rubbing alcohol and corn syrup smell. And that’s pretty much how it tastes. Very gassy on top of that. So I can taste its wretchedness going down, then taste it again coming back up. Decided to "enjoy" this during the Bears/Rams game because it shares with the NFL a history of ethnic stereotyped mascots. I picked this up in Michigan with some (hopefully much better) Dark Horse at the brewery’s convenience store outlet.
0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
This was the worst of the malt liquors from my early years. Looking back, I would drink this before all others because we all thought this was the strongest of the malts. No one liked it. I could not finish a whole 40. Once it was flat at the bottom, I literally would gag after each gulp and have to pour it down the drain. Terrible corn/metallic taste with a large white head. I just found out now that they had to change the name. They should have just discontinued it.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Deep straw/light gold in color with a small white head. Aroma and flavor of sweet corn and malt, hops are not noticeable, overall not a bad malt liquor.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
40oz bottle: Pours a clear golden orange with a thin white head, alcohol and grains in the aroma, starts and ends slightly bland with no real taste. Mild stale ending, but no bad for a 2.5 year old bottle.
1.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
Cold 40oz bottle with screwtop labeled "Crazy Horse": It hissed when DirtyMike opened it! Eeek! Pours a clear golden orange color with a minimal amount of alabaster bubbles around the edges. Aroma is of light grains and hay. Taste is of light grains and hay. Watery texture, crisp and well carbonated.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
bottle from a decade ago. I’ve had this one when I was much younger known as "crazy Horse" and was my favorite liqour back when I was a Stupid kid. Decent flavor compared to it’s class. Probably the best Malt Liquor that I’ve had.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Poured a clear golden color. Typical sweet grainy corny malt. Some fruitiness as well. I don’t why I even drink these beers.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Poured a deep golden, ginger ale-hued body under a fizz-away head. Musty, corny aroma is slightly phenolic with a dash of pepper. Flavor is sweet and grainy with a sticky body. I didn’t mind this one, but be warned that this is aimed at the hardcore alcoholic with a sweet-tooth.
