Commercial Description:
For over 4 decades, Colt 45 Premium Malt Liquor has been the "class of all malt liquor brands". With its smooth and distinct flavor and historic affiliation with Billy Dee Williams, it has become an urban American icon. If you’re looking for a thick 40, or an ice cold shorty, Colt 45 is the malt liquor that works EVERYTIME!

Gold appearance, minimal fizzy head on top. Aroma of sugary berries , alcohol . Medium to light body , dry alcohol is the main theme here . Badly made malt liquor.

What did you really expect here? This 7% is the same as the others (6 and 8%) just in the middle alcohol wise. sharp pissy and metallic. Not good at all. Still, in the day, I’d pound these. Keep it real!

Pours a light golden yellow. Aromas of minor hops, corn, grains. Flavor is light, crisp, watery with a little hop and not much else.

Bottle- Pours sparkling gold with a short lived white fizz. No real lace, or retention. The aroma is feusels and wet paper, with vegetable/pineapple...urgh. Tastes pretty vegetal, there’s some weird malty sweetness and it kinda tastes like creamed corn or some other metallic tinned veggies. There’s a bite in the finish, but It is not really from the hops. Pretty rough.

Golden with a white head with dry dust grainy aromas wafting off of some sugar background. By the time I get to having as decent smell the head went away. Palate is weird. I’m reading the commercial description... is that a joke?

Colt 45 is just the classiest malt liquor ever created, isn’t it? If it’s good enough for Billy Dee Williams, it’s good enough for Dr. Beardface!

710ml can. Gold colour, very noisy fizzing white head, totally vanishes within 20 seconds. Aroma is sweet and sugary, estery, flowery air freshener with red berries thrown in. Alcoholic bite on first sip, lingers for a bit. Weak and dry finish with cardboard flavours.
