troll1944LS (2), Boston, Massachusetts, USA does not count | 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 22, 2003 Presentation: 24 oz can, they call it a "TWO FOUR" on the label, no freshness date to be found anywhere.
Appearance: Pale golden yellow colour, two fingered head forms from a spritzy big bubbled carbonation. Very thin sprinkled white lace is left, something is better than nothing right?
Smell: Both a sweetness from the malt and cereal grain as well as the alcohol. Smells faint of trifle, lady fingers in alcohol.
Taste: Stiff medium body with an increasing smoothness as the carbonation unleashes. Slightly creamy mouth feel shows that there is a decent amount of malt in this brew. As soon as the flavours rush in sweet warming alcohol fumes from the mouth and nose. Grain and sweetness are the forefront, touch of corn grit flavour and a cracker like maltiness come from that. Hops are barley in the flavour though there is a sharpness from them that essentially is the bitterness which is coupled with the warming alcohol and graininess. A biting grain and warming alcohol warp things up in the end.
Notes: Not a bad brew when wanting to quickly consume for a buzz. One of the most known malt liquors on the market, this is typically consumed out of the can or more popularly out of the 40 oz bottle.
A friend of mine always brings over a couple "FOUR Os" of this stuff as a gag ... funny thing is that we end up polishing the stuff off everytime. OD40oz (603), Box Elder, South Dakota, USA

I wasn't too impressed though. TChrome (1303), Bedford, Texas, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Nov 22, 2003 40 oz. bottle: Aroma is straw/hay. Appearance is fizzy/yellow. Flavor is not horrible. Initially sweet with a kinda dry finish, the 8% ABV is totally hidden. Flavor avoids another 40 oz. drain pour. Will drink maybe 12 oz., then down the drain. alcoholica (128), Dublin, Ohio, USA

| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 20, 2003 Smelly stinky beer. Ugly pale color. Flavor is watery, but it hides the 8 percent ABV. Its pretty nastay, but its awesome for Edward 40-hands.
