Colt 45 Malt Liquor
Poured from a 16oz can into a US tumbler pint glass. A: The beer is a very pale yellow color with a short white head that fades quickly and leaves a spotty lace on the glass. S: The aroma is of adjuncts, light malts and touches of alcohol and hops. T: The taste starts out with an adjunct and light malt sweetness that is quickly followed by the breadiness of grain and barley. I'm not getting the same alcohol bite in the taste that most other malt liquors have, but I'm guessing that it might be because this beer is on the low end of the ABV spectrum for the style. There's a mild hops presence which is normal. The after-taste is slightly sweet. M: Crisp and a little smooth, light-to-medium body, medium carbonation, clean finish. D: A little tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, decent kick, good representation of style, it's one of the better Malt Liquors that I've had and even though it's not the stronger one out there, it's still a cost-efficient way to get a buzz going, which is what this kind of beer is intended for.
