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.

Jun 18, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, golden body with a small, white head.
Smell: Floral hints mixed into some stale, low-sodium chicken broth with a dash of pool water.
Taste: Ppale malts and a bit of bored grains sweetened with light corn syrup. Not much hop character beyond some slight floral hints, no real bitterness. Thankfully, it’s not junked up with any overtly chemical flavors. Drying finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Far from good, but that’s never the goal with malt liquors, though I will say it’s far from terrible as well.

May 13, 2008 Thanks again to Unclemattie! A pale golden color with a faint corn aroma. This one is a bit on the sweet side and rather weak for the style. But with ML you aim for less flavor. Not a bad 40 to pick up for getting krunk and not giving a shit!

May 10, 2008 24oz can. Clear golden. Full bodied brew with wild hops and lots of malt?... Light bodied and watery. Aroma of clorine. Watered down flavor of sweet malt. Tastes like corn syrup. Could be better, it ain’t no Four-O!
