Not too bad as Malt Liquors go. I poured it into a glass and tried to not be prejudiced by the fact that I bought it in the familiar 40 oz Ghetto torpedo. It was ok. Much easier than St Ides. That crap will surely kill you over time. Still every time I go into the Liquor store, as often as not some kid, just 21 will have one in his fist, ready to get lit. This stuff won't give you nightmares.

Hard to believe this one is a malt liquor. It looks too refined to be a true fo-dee. This tastes like a Michelob with the alcohol jacked way up. Not a bad choice for a 40. Its damn near one of my favorite malt liquors.

Um, malt liquor with the imported taste. Man, I couldn't wait to try this one. It has a clear, golden colored body with a thin, white head. Adjuncty aroma of sweet corn and a touch of malts, no hops at all. The flavor is only slightly malty with a strong corn flavor and a crisp, clean finish. The finish is somewhat unpleasant as adjuncts take over. Not very good, but probably one of the least offensive malt liquors.

To the college-aged beer ignorant person, 64 ounces of 7%ABV beer for $2.49 was hard to beat. After the 1st few sips the taste went away and all was OK, that is, right up until the end of the second bottle, then all hell breaks loose.

Boy, I remember drinking this stuff WAY back when... this was the stuff you drank when you wanted to get F**k'd up! The riddles under the bottle cap are perhaps the best beer-marketing ploy ever thunk of!

I am yet another one of those who drank this skunky high alcohol classic when it first came out. It was cheap and it could get you pissed. What more could a young person ask for.

A truly average malt liquor, at least to me. Pedestrian flavor, sub-par aromas, and not much in the way of taste make this an old favorite of mine. I started drinking this stuff way back when, when it first came out. I had some recently as well, and it still tastes the same to me. Came in a 16 oz. green glass bottle, letting me know right up front, 'Hey Man, I'm skunked', and you will be too, if you drink more than 2 of these green grenades. Stale smelling, alcohol makes up 90% of the aromas. Sort of a darker golden color to it, not much in the way of head either. Not my favorite everyday beer, by a long shot. But not as bad as you'd think, either.

Crappy, skunky malt liquor. Don't like the flavor at all. Just a bad combination of skunkyness and ubiquitous malt liquor chemical flavor. Yuck!
