Camo High Gravity Lager

Brewed by City Brewery (Melanie Brewing Co)
Style: Malt Liquor
La Crosse, Wisconsin USA

Well, what shall we say? Purchased under an El bridge in Chicago. Has a tart, fruity cheap aroma. I'm not sure what the marketing approach is here, perhaps it's aimed at the duckblind crowd. Tangy dough lager flavor. ABV edge kicks in at the end. Finish is a bit sweet and somewhat flat. I expect more fizz outta my malt likka.

I found this worse than the ale. Smelss really really bad. Alcohol with that funky bad lager aroma. This is better as a whole than most beers that cost 1.30 for 24 ounces, but the best from camo is definitely the black ice.

Yellow Coloring. Glad That This is My Third and FINAL Camo Beer.... NO MORE!! We Should Use This Stuff on Terrorists....Cripes.. Skunky, Nasty Aroma and Flavor...Bad Corn/Grains Taste..Give you a Bad Aftertaste...But Possibly The Best of the Three if Such a Thing is Possible.

Deep orange/gold, but clear with a big fluffy white soapy looking head. Body is thick, sweet and smooth - no hops at all. As it warmed, the alcohol crept in quick to ruin everything. Left me feeling lethargic and blah.

Another punk rock show at my bar, another confiscated can of swill...am I lucky or what? So many enticements found on the labeling of this can. "Extra Smooth", it boasts, and also brandishes not 3 or 4, but 5 X’s...whoa! "Super Premium", too! And what does the name mean? Short for camoflauge? But the can is green...should I drink it in a forest and try to blend in? Damn it, I’m so stoked to try this wondrous elixir, let’s pull back the tab, and plunge in! Snap, crack, ah....crystalline clear, golden hued, large offering of snowy froth that rapidly collapses...just right for the style, high carbonation.... Aroma of high fructose corn syrup, butter, and Listerine (R). Raw and reeking of basic alcoholic phenols. taste: limited, and immediately overshadowed by high alcohol content...a drum beats in the brain, and it become a circle, a ring of tom toms pounding a monotonous rhythm designed not for liberating the soul in joyous celebration, but only physical punishment. the mallets meet the membrane in this orgy of sadism (the only way to describe the intents of anyone inflicting this mess on themselves). Very slim essence, almost no real flavor, just slick and somewhat sweet, but, BANG! BASH! BOOM!, the whip cracks and the poor frontal lobes feel the torture...you’re only chasing this dragon if you’re in it for gettin’ crunked, am I right? a more astute and studied scholar of the malt liquor type can perhaps shed light on the finer distinctions of this particular brew, but whatever shades set it apart from it’s brethren, making it more or less desirable, are lost on me. Just stanks...I’m currently on a dare with myself to see if I can finish the damned thing...hang on, maybe I can...no, I’m getting sick...and I’m not happy with this in me, not at all, friends. Very light bodied, with a limp, languid finish, the main staying aspect being the affect of the booze on the brain. Unpleasant flavor, if any. gonna have to save myself, and toss the rest...this is not fun, and, again, you only drink this if you want to get F’ed Up. Well, more power to you, but I’ll stick to tastier vehicles for that particular project.

Clear yellow with white, foamy head. Smells like nail polich remover. Flavor of soured orange milk. Very thin, so the only finish is alcohol. This beer is actively bad.

Pale gold, with small head, and correspondingly weak carbonation. Head faded immediately. Very weak sweetish aroma. Strongly sweet, rough flavor. Thankfully no weird off-notes or esters. Potent and cloying. Sampled from the big 40oz clear-glass bottle - yet no hint of skunking, which must be telling since there’s not much bitterness in this beer (i.e. barely any hops). Surprisingly not gross, eso for such high alcohol, but I couldn’t finish one glass, and I dumped the rest of the bottle.

Heheheh, on the label it says xxXxx !!!! Big 22 oz mug from a forty. Typical strong, may I say cream corn, malt liquor smell. Nearly repulsive on the olfactory. Ubiquitous pale yellow american beer color but big white head that goes surprisingly rocky, how bout that! Big strong alky flavors like any strong lager but more coarse in it’s own way. As rude and brutal as any imperial stout, IIPA, barley wine or the worst ale. Cheap malt liquor is the question to any high alky ale that may provide an answer! IMHO WTF!
