Pours a transparent golden with a thin wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of sweet pale malt and corn with some light fruity esters. Body starts slightly effervescent and adjuncty sweet before a thinner, slightly more bitter, warming finish. Not bad for a malt liquor I suppose.

Alright, make it of break it time for this one. Quite the distribution of ratings on this one, from 0.9 to 3.5. Knowing this brewery I have a tendency to believe that his will be closer to the 0.9, but I should not prejudge. Light straw color with a tallish soft peak egg white looking head that diminishes to a thin lid quite quickly. Cream corn, light corn syrup and a touch of light malt in the aromas. Perhaps a touch of floral hops. Quite dry compared to the aromas. Hints of pale malt and a chalky grain. Quite thin and somewhat fizzy in feel. Finish is dry but the linger gets somewhat sweet and sticky. I’ve had much worse ML offerings. Perhaps the fact that it is on the low end of the alcohol scale as far as malt liquors goes saves it.

This canned brew poured a large head of frothy fine to medium sized mostly lasting white colored bubbles that left behind a fair lacing. The body contained very soft carbonation, was transparent and light yellow orange in color. Its aroma contained notes of malt dough . Its mouth feel is initially tingly malty ML palate crisp with a lingering slightly tingly mellow palate and a malty aftertaste. Its flavor contained malty spicy hoppy notes and was.

Can. Poured a large white head with sparse lacing, transparent, fast rising carbonation, and a yellow hue. Aroma was malty, mild hops and sweet. Flavor was sweet, malty, smooth, watery, and thin. Mouthfeel was smooth, watery and thin. Light bodied beer. Not too bad for this style of beer IMO. There are a lot worse out there.
