(24oz can, courtesy of blutt59) Pours a clear yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of grain, cognac, and corn. Flavor of alcohol, corn, and sugar.

Can from Keller IGA. Poured clear pale color with a medium to large frothy white head that mostly lastd with fair lacing. Light grainy malt and small hop aroma. Medium body with a thick texture and soft carbonation. Moderate sweet flavor with a moderate grainy sweet finish of short duration. Cold wet alcohol with some character.

Can... Clear golden lager with a mid-sized, fluffy, white head. The aroma is of sweet, warm mash, corn, and ethanol. Full-bodied and thick with moderate carbonation. The flavor is corny and super sweet; very boozy. Finishes sweet and hot. Not a great experience, but it was "an experience." Thanks to mashmaster for trying to kill me with this stuff! I’m drunk.

Fizzy deep orange-gold pour. The nose is just awful. Sweet nail polish and honey with a rancid milk backnote. Thick, cloying, chewy palate with some corn syrup for added body. Gak!

24oz can CRUSHED with angrypirate06. 12%... As an Angeleno, I must defend my hometown and say that the bottle credits United Brands of La Crosse, WI (not LA). Deepish golden pour with a shockingly long lasting white head. Booze on the nose, damn! Nail polish remover. Sweet and sticky. Reminds me a bit of DFH Fort sadly (sad for the DFH beer that is). Banana esters, skunk. A lot of brewing flaws to say the least. Its bad, but not truly horrible. Buttery, a ton of alcohol, estery, some garbage. This stuff probably has a ton of calories. Corn syrup and some green apple. Very syrupy. Light bubbles. Worse as it warms.

A: The pour is a crystal clear pale golden color with an initially fluffy white head. S: The nose is sweet and almost corn syrup like, but not the usually offensive aromas of malt liquor. T: Like the nose before it, this one is surprisingly decent. I found the sweetness of this beer to be almost like apple juice. M: The body is obviously lacking in this one, but not to the extent of many other malt liquors. The finish is crisp and actually moderately refreshing. D: This is easily the best malt liquor that I’ve had. While it is very sweet, I found it to be lacking in the usually bad traits of malt liquors. If you’re ballin’ on a budget, this one might be for you.

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2012 Can @ the First Annual Rocky Mountain Malt Liquor Tasting. Oh fuck me, this smells like MJ’s asshole. Light golden appearance with a white head. Burning nasty alcohol, rubbing alcohol aroma. This is in the bottom three aromas of all-time. Fuck you. Fuck me. Fuck RB. Super sweet, corn flavor with lots of booze. This is nastier than when pepsiedcan touches himself while watching Spongebob Squarepants. Update: I originally rated this 0.5, but I want to keep just one 0.5 beer (aka worst beer ever) at a time, so this gets a 0.6 since Samuel Adams Triplebock is absolutely horrendous.

can, a clear awful combination of dirty water smelling, lemonade and acrid, sour, metal

Oh man, this is some bad stuff. Can given to me by CheersMate. Thanks Kevin... Nose os metal, apples, Borski, Popov, or Safeway Brand triple charcoal filtered vodka, chemically sweetness. Good lord. The can is cool, its got gold and that makes it appear that it might be a little better than it really be so the appearance will probably get the best score of the whole experience. The flavor tastes like alcohol burning from the aformentioned vodkas plus rotten apple cider, heavy corn syrup, and more vodka. Fucking shit this was bad.

Deep bronze colored body with a wisp of a thin white head. There are plenty of fast moving bubbles. There is some alcohol musty carpet and corn flakes. The taste is like liquid perfume and detergent. There is also alcohol and some cardboard. Wow, this is truly horrid.
