I’m going to save half of this brew for Thursday night for sure.My personal experience with these shows that ice cold is the only way to sample them,so icey it is.Nice golden color,small white head that faded fast but left a little foam behind.The aroma is malty and citrus (lemon) with a slight corn appearance,mildly sweet as well.It actually has a very nice flavor in the beginning.Malty sweet and fruity with a mild hop presence,with it getting a little bitter in the middle but not too badly.The after taste is a little sweet and fruity,with the alcohol only coming on briefly at best.It’s a little thin bodied but very nicely done and definately a brew that can be taken out of the paper bag.Thanks to GrainbeltGuzzler for sending me another nice brew.

Actually pretty smooth for a malt liquor. Aroma isn’t that great but the taste is supreme.

Ahhhh yes. Malt liquor. When one thinks of malt liquor they tend to think of 40s in a brown bag. Hangin’ out of the street corner and sellin’ some crack. Or perhaps some poor college student looking for a cheap buz. City Slicker is king of malt liquor. This beer is what all malt liquors should be like. It has a sweet corn aroma and taste, with a gentle hint of mildew. It comes in a large bottle and it will kick you in the ass. Billy Dee only wishes he drank City Slicker.

This is the most interesting forty I have had becuase it was from a small wisconsin brewery i had never heard of. 40’s usually come from big time breweries. There were still able to capture the very distinct cheap 40 malt liqour taste. Average, tasted similar to colt 45.

Couldn’t resist this one. I decided to drink this 2 ways, cold out of the forty, and at 50 degrees in a duvel tulip. From the bottle cold, this beer is not objectionable. Clean malt flavor, showns some corn sugar after a while. Some hops present, but mostly in the background. At 50+ degrees out a duvel tulip, this beer shows many more flaws. Nice head, dare I say belgian lace? Sweatsock aroma is persistent. Smeels and tastes of corn sugar. It has the smell I associated with ’beer’ when I was underage and beginning to drink. Some fusels and faint hops. Out of the forty itself, I would give it about a 2.5/5, but I will rate it as an average of the duvel tulip/40 bottle ratings. Although, if I am ever in need of malt liquor, this will be my first stop. This baby packs a punch.
