Can. Listed as 10% on can. Nice light amber color with a very nice white creamy head. Good lacing. Aroma gets a bit chemical, some alcohol and detectible sweetness in nose. Body is medium and the beer tends to be cloying. Initial sweet malt rush and then a mixture that I would best describe as artificial. Harsh bitterness at finish. Probably won’t finish the entire contents and won’t seek out again.

Dorqui (1547) - Brescia, ITALY - FEB 4, 2005
10% ABVversion. Light and little long-lasting foam. Yellow color gold, tending to the orange. Good fizz. Unusual, anomalous scent. It seems nearly strawberry’s cewingum. Taste decided with talk of apple.

SilkTork (4691) - Rochester, Kent, United Kingdom, WALES - JAN 23, 2005
Can. Minor plastic fumes. Slightly oily texture. Some cardboard, plastic, grease and alcohol. But mostly neutral, and it does remain drinkable.

Knoxville (14) - Terrassa, SPAIN - NOV 21, 2004
Very strong. Light golden colour, with a incredible alcohol smell. The perfect beer if you want to get drunk in a few minutes.

BeerPrince (1701) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - OCT 24, 2004
Super strong, super nasty. Looks like a lager but tastes like a malt liquor. Good to get blasted on, but hard to put down. Burns of alcohol.

jgb9348 (3369) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - OCT 10, 2004
Super clear golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma of slight english hops, skunk and cardboard. Light-bodied; Strong malty flavour with large alcohol highlights (no kidding at 10% malt liqour) with little else. Aftertaste full of malt and alcohol. Overall, too strong and too one dimensional. Thanks to Andy for this 50 cL can purchased at the LCBO on Queen’s Quay in Toronto, Ontario and sampled on 22-May-2004. Believe it or not, this is the only beer I drank on graduation day from RIT. I did have champagne and plenty of wine, however!

dirkules (627) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 24, 2004
amber, bubbly, heavy aftertaste like repellant... pretty gross and well below expectations. All it’s got going for it is that 10%... I’ll have wine instead then.

imdownthepub (7157) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - SEP 8, 2004
Canned. Gold, fizzed head. Smelt slightly of blocked drains, sweet and tinny with an incredible alcohol kick. Another way to get alcohol into the system fast for next to nothing.
