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!

Haha. One of the better malt liquors, I guess. I’ve drank this and could drink it again without complaint. Certainly not the worst but nobody would confuse this with anything good. It comes in a 40! Isn’t too horrifyingly bad during the last ~10 oz, which is nice.

Sweet corn aroma, headache inducing sweetness. Flavor is adjuct laden, corn is predominant, some sort of stale funk, and a big alcohol bite. Too big for the ABV. It may work every time, but it won’t taste good while doing it. Lando Calrissian is pushing some pretty shady stuff these days.

Sampled from a 40 oz clear bottle this beer poured dark golden with a huge soapy white head. The aroma was sweet, tart and tangy. The flavor was sweet, tart, tangy and a bit corny. The finish was long and tart. Much better than I expected but still not great.

not the worst brew ever, it certainly has a grassy aroma, and has a biting malt taste to it, but the body is surprising decent and smooth.

Drank out of the bag many times in high school. I didn’t know anything about beer then and it’s a good thing, because it’s the only way I would have drank this.

A pale yellow color with a white head. The aroma is rather malty with some corn notes. The flavor is some malty corn notes but no alcohol notes. This is not offensive at all which is a good aspect of a malt liquor. Pretty drinkable actually. Grab a fo-dee dawg.

I saw this on the site and actually have been looking for it. Found at the Oak Creek, Woodman’s. 24 ounce can. Clear light straw color with a tall fluffy white head and some decent lace. First sniff releases an "oh boy" from my lips. The scents do not lead to a wish to imbibe. The best I am coming up with for a descriptor is plastic fruit. Some corn syrup and a bit touch of band-aid. Not a swell scent. I keep looking for some malt and am unable to find any. A little less flavor than the Big Bear I just had, and I’m not certain if that is a good or a bad thing. Light melon and alcohol flavors. Fairly dry in the finish and linger. A hint of vanilla alcohol in the linger. Rather lifeless body, at least it is not sticky and sweet. Once again never wish for something, you might just get it.

From a 24 oz. can. Relatively dark, near copper body. The aroma is sweet corn and grape juice. The taste is fairly sweety and a little fruity with grape Bubblelicious. Not the normal alchol burn that I would expect, but more like eating bran cereal that had grape juice poored on it. A strange tasting malt liquor.
