BlackForestCO (489), Fort Collins and Black Forest, Colorado, USA May 9, 2008 Bottle from Crosling. Poured a clear golden-yellow color with a slight white head that diminished to a ring. Light aroma of sweet malt and a hint of light apricot. Flavor is much like the aroma, with some sweet maltiness leading into a light apricot flavor and eventually ending dry with some light yeast. Decent on the palate, drying finish. Overall, not bad at all.
McGarnigle (161), Rochester, New York, USA Aug 13, 2008 Bomber. Yellow/gold, not entirely clear, nice white head. Smells sweet. I love the creamy texture with low carbonation. Yeah, it tastes corny and sweet, but it’s a nice, true taste., not watery of phony. I drank it chilled. Maybe if it warms it becomes musty or alcoholic. As is, it’s dangerous if it really is 7%. I thought this was really tasty. CapFlu (3254), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Aug 11, 2008 (650ml bottle) Purchased at the Strath for $5.85. Pours a lasting, medium white frothy head atop a non-carbonated amber body. Nose of tart hops and mild alcohol. Much more potent malt in the flavour, with the hops taking a backseat. Pretty plain in tongue and balance. Even the malt tails off early. Average
NomDeBeer (129), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Aug 11, 2008 I haven’t had too many malt liquors, but if this is one of the better ones, then I’m definitely staying away. This is drinkable but that’ s about all it has going for it. decaturstevo (1181), decatur, Tennessee, USA Aug 7, 2008 Gold pour with slick lace and head. Corn and light malt on the nose. Sweet malt with hints of bitter. A bit foamy almost slick. Nice finishing bitter not bad. J_Hunter (165), British Columbia, Canada Aug 5, 2008 pours a golden yellow with a medium head that disipates quickly. Nice and easy to drink sweet taste and end very light on the palate.
