From a 16 fl. oz (US) bottle. #021308N 2354225. Pours a bronze tone with a slight off-white head. Lots of carbonation. The malts are noticeable in the aroma mixed in with a little grass. The malts can be found in the taste but not overwhelming...just enough to savor the malty flavor. It leaves a little bit of an aftertaste but not intolerable. It’s not a fabulous brew but it really isn’t terrible and it carries a little punch. I can only get it in a bottle around where I live, not in a can.

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent typically carbonated dark yellow-orange colored body. The aroma was hoppy malty and malt liquorish. The crisp mouth feel was very tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt mild hops and corn. An OK brew just nothing special.

2007. Can. Most malt liquors make you gag. This one only does toward the end. Aroma of...well, malt liquor. Looks like urine. Tastes like souped-up Schlitz. Don’t waste your time or money on this one.

This is what I used to pound away in college when I was nearly broke. They used to have little puzzles under the cap, which was a huge selling point. Not terrible, but far from good.

I have always loved Private Stock. I had it for the first time in the mid 80’s. My brother introduced it to me while we were in the Marine Corps station in Noth Carolina. Since then here in the 2000’s my freinds and I always enjoy our Private stock nights.

Pale yellow with big white dimpled head. Weak and corny aroma. Taste is minimal. Perhaps I should try it on the rocks next time to accentuate the subtle character of its choice and expensive ingredients.

40oz beer with some microwave French bread pizza... This is almost as good as having Cantillon and roast duck. This 40oz reminds me of bringing a trunk load of cases of beer to the dorms at umass. This is just a fizzy yellow beer like fluid that tastes a little too sweet to be actual beer. not bad for a 40oz
