Pale yellow color with a thin lace for a head. A lot of carbonation. Smells like sweet corn and a bit of grassy grains. Light bodied. Taste like sweet corn and grassy grains. Has a warm alcohol effect. Hmmm.... well this beer was the first beer I had ever tasted (and that was when I was about 12). Not much has changed since then. If you want a cheap buzz with minimal flavor then this is your beer.

2.65/5  rDev +28%
look: 2.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.75

Poured from can into a pint glass

Appearance – The beer pours a golden amber color with a tiny white head. The head fades almost instantly with only a trace of lace.

Smell- The aroma is mainly of a sweet corny smell with some lighter hints of a bready nature as well as a little bit of a metallic smell.

Taste - The taste begins with a mix of a malty and corny taste with a light hint of caramel sweetness. Surprisingly, it maintains this flavor largely to its end where only a faint cardboard yet somewhat very lightly citrus hopped flavor come to the taste leaving a somewhat crisp taste to linger on the tongue.

Mouthfeel – The body of the beer is on the medium side with a carbonation level that is rather average as well. A slightly lighter creaminess and mouthfeel may have suited the corny and lightly citrus and cardboard flavors better as well as made it more drinkable. Even with this said, the feel is not awful for the brew.

Overall – Not an overall massively tasty brew, but it is wicked cheap (~ 3 dollars for a 6 pack) and is drinkable, so it suits a need and a situation. For what it is, it is pretty decent.

I poured some of a 40oz into a big glass mug. The beer was your normal dark golden/ yellow color with a white head that surprisingly left some lacing on the glass.

Basically no aroma is present, some corn, adjunct, and a slight sweetness is the only thing detectable.

No taste but light sweet corn , some bread and that's about it.

The beer is light with lots of carbonation.

For a malt liquor this beer is better than most. Honestly, I would buy this if I was really, really broke.

This is my favorite malt liquor. It's crisp and refreshing and is delicious mixed as a sidewalk slammer.
