If you like thick, bready beers, move to europe. Colt 45 for me is the epitome of an easy-to-drink, thirst-quenching and refreshing beer. Ice cold (minimum 20 minutes in the freezer prior to drinking, and served in an iced mug) and at the end of a hot summer’s day, a colt 45 is really a sublime experience. The bubbles tickle the throat as it goes down, and it’s very easy to polish off a 22 in several sips as thirst, and the day’s stresses and troubles, are put to rest for the evening. I honestly have a difficult time understanding those who give this beer such bad reviews. What would they prefer to drink with salted peanuts, pretzels, pizza, or a shishkabob---guinness.....??? Oh, one final note---the fact that colt 45 is a full dollar more per 22 than the competing brands indicates to me that this truly is the king of malt liquors.

This is an okay malt liquor. Stay away from the clear bottles, and stick with the canned versions. Goes well with salad, steak, and potatoes. Good when ice cold.

Drink this if you want to get wasted. It is your premeir malt liquor, very carbonated and watery. You can tell that it’s almost like they add alcohol at the end just for fun.

Fun for Edward forty hands. But it’s a feet to finish the beers before they get up to room temperature. It’s a typical malt liquor and you can’ really rate this beer because it’s sole purpose was to be cheap and get you drunk in which it does both. but still tastes bad.

Morgan’s tasting, 07MAR09. Plastic screw top 40, as it should be. Clear gold with a fizzy white head. Nose is boozy grain and malt. Crappy sweet corny and boozy, but somehow not nearly as bad as I imagined.

I disliked this beer more than any beer I’ve ever had. The aroma was not pleasing in the slightest sense. The taste was very watery and tastes like water mixed with artificial sweetener. I couldn’t even finish more than a few sips before I had to throw it down the sink.

Tall can at OTT. I can’t ever remember seeing this in stores around here and my curiosity got the best of me. Super pale, lasting head (poured it into a plastic 32oz cup to allow generous headspace and room to get my nose in and savor the glorious aroma). Chemical fusel aroma. The flavor is just plain dirty, with lots of adjuncts, sugar, and higher alcohols. Hard to finish.

24 ounce can. Pours a golden yellow with a large white head that slowly fades. Taste is of malt and corn. Similar aroma. Not a bad brew considering the price.
