rustychiles (546), Mesa, Arizona, USA Mar 27, 2008 From a trappist glass!!!
Pours a very clear amberish yellow with 1 finger of foamy head. Aroma of malt, corn, grain and homeless guy asking for a dollar.
Has a thin watery mouthfeel and lots of malt sweetness, but something aint quite right. Subtle flavors of rotting corn in the cob taken from a garbage can and open bottle of budweiser that’s been sitting on a counter for a week and is warm find their way down my throat and warm my soul. Too bad my soul won’t be able to cure the splitting headache that I will have tomorrow morning. Not bad for a buck, but if you have more do yourself a favor and don’t buy this beer.
UriahHeep (50), Georgia, USA Oct 24, 2008 Truly nasty stuff. I guess a crack smoother and therefore preferable to Steel Reserve. Only buy it if you need 8% alcohol to feel buzzed. puboflyons (400), New Hampshire, USA Oct 21, 2008 From the 24 fl. oz. can with a born on date and lot code of: 21 Aug 08 WA20. Pours yellow-orange with a lot of fizzy white head and carbonation. An aroma of overpowering alcohol, corn, grass, and something akin to anti-freeze(!). ’’Brewed for a distinctive bold taste,’’ the commercial description says. Bold is one word for it. I would suggest words like potent, pungent, rancid, and/or inebriating. A cheap way to get a buzz but beyond that there is little redeeming value. SuperDave70 (929), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Sep 27, 2008 Tall can. Fizzy yellow pour with a fizzy white head. Aroma of malt, corn, sugar and alcohol. Flavor is sweet and malty, with lots of alcohol. It’s exactly what I expect in a cheap malt liquor. Mikemartin48 (1), Sacramento, California, USA does not count Aug 31, 2008 I’m a sucker for cheap unknown beers. So when I saw it was from A-B, I figured why not? Worst stuff I’ve had since I bought Durango. Horrible and I still have 10 left, should have fornd this crap in a 40 or a 22 oz, so I wouldn’t have to dump out as much. mansquito (661), Boston/Philadelphia, USA Aug 26, 2008 I had this the same day I had HG800 and with this beer I was also pleasantly surprised. I expected it to taste a lot like 211, but instead it had very little taste and a lot of alcohol to boot.
