Labatt Maximum Ice

Brewed by Labatt Breweries (InBev)
Style: Malt Liquor

The best way to enjoy this beer is by duct-taping a 40oz to each hand and trying to keep them cold before you finish. Choicest brew of the homeless!

[1220-20080325] 473mL can. Corn vegetable aroma has a hint of smoky hay. Clear, orange brown body with big quick foamy white bubbles. Burnt hay and straw vegetables. Medium body. Alcohol is hidden at first but kicks in shortly after figuring out the toasty parts.

No messing around after a long day being preyed on by black flies, mosquitoes, and ticks in Michigan’s great north country. Served in a plastic hotel cup: clear straw body, medium off-white head. Sickly sweet aroma with rough grain notes. The body is sweet and packs a punch, with rough off-flavors and grain husks biting the tongue and piercing the overt sweetness of the cheap additives. Pretty bad stuff that should be illegal, not imported.

Presentation: Poured from big 24oz can into a pint glass. It pours a clear golden color. The head is big, foamy and bright white in color, which quickly fades to thin ring around the top. The aroma has a heavy malty character that is bready and biscuity. There is a strong milled corn scent as well. A thick sweet liquor taste and a grainy malt character drive its flavor. Hop flavors are light and add only a light grassy taste and some bitterness to the finish. The carbonation is fairly high but fades and becomes rather slick in texture and its light to medium bodied. Its malty to the max and it will get you loaded quickly and cheaply. Overall it is a passable brew for some serious drinking. (Nice Mad Max reference KeithD)

Did not like the aroma much, came across as too strong. The color was like it would be the next morning, but not as bad as I was thinking. still nothing too good though.

pours clear yellow, not very bubbly, medium head, little lacing. the aroma is mostly corn, maybe a whiff of grain. can’t tell if this is taste flavored, but it is fairly inoffensive, so i could probably drink more than one if i had to. the paplate is water. man, i hope there is some alcohol in here, or i am just wasting my time.

In noticed that Malt Liquor is at it’s best when a lot of alcohol is put in it....this is one of the better ones especial if you want a ’quick drunk’. The aroma was almost non- existent except for alcohol, and it was watery on the palate.

pours a clear yellow with a one finger bubbly white head. aroma is malt with a touch of hops and some lemon, corn, and grass. has a light body with descent lacing and good carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma but a little stronger and something funky i cant explain. its ok, but i would not buy it again. has a touch of sweetness to it as well.
