Jun 27, 2009 Bottle. Clear golden brown with foamy white head. Aroma of sweet malts, light booze and citrus. Flavor was yeast, spice, citrus. Decent for a malt liquor.

Jun 20, 2009 Golden pour with white head with a skunky aroma. Lacing! a 5 for sure. a hoppy bitter taste that I can’t but my finger on. But its not good. Real stale citrus? Last time for me with this one. Kind of reminded me of college and malt liquor.

Jun 3, 2009 I like carlsberg, but elephant is just not up to par. The stronger alcohol taste is only a minor issue.

May 29, 2009 Hardly any aroma - malty, if not skunky perhaps. Golden with little lasting head. The flavour is simultaneously sweet and bitter, but mostly sweet and malty. Taste of honey makes it sweet, Not complex. Fairly good, and the higher ABV is a plus.

May 26, 2009 12 ounce bottle - $1.79 at Total Wine & More in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Appearance: Pours a clear, golden body with a frothy, fairly lasting, white head.
Smell: Gah! Huge whiff of skunk even upon opening. Let me pay some bills online, get some laundry going and I’ll be back. ... Pils malts, vague touch of grains, and musky-scented hops.
Taste: Faintly grainy pilsner malts with a fair amount of sweetness, though it dries up rather quickly. A few scant drops of peach and pear juice. Stir in a few corn cobs. Musky, earthy hops with a medium amount of bitterness. Pop of alcohol about midway through. Drying, lightly warming finish with some grainy and corny hints.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: A bland, vapid lager gifted with a bulky alcoholic character makes for a somewhat unpleasant drink. Skip it!

May 26, 2009 For a Euro malt liquor, it’s really pretty nice. I recall a time when this was consumed fairly regularly in my earlier drinking years, and I thought I was shittin’ in tall cotton because it was "imported". Heh...man I was dumb.
So I get this beer to relive old times and watch the Lakers lose to the Nuggets (w00t!), along with a few other oldies. The beer pours out a nice yellow-gold color, slightly darker than most malt liquors with a nice white head. Aroma is slightly skunked, sweet with a touch of grain/corn. Flavor is grainy, yeasty with a bit of sweetness too. Alcohol is pretty well hidden, until it gets warm. Then all hell breaks loose. Drink it before it gets warm.

May 23, 2009 Super skunky. lager taste is more full than the mass produced beers, also a light hoppiness in this brew. The skunky aroma is the most prevalent characteristic, definitely not worth the high alcohol content.

May 22, 2009 I agree with the concensus here... this beer stinks. Poor brew with an bitter stinky finish. All I like about the beer is the color.
