22oz bottle of the classic Malt liquor. On balance not horrific.
OK, here’s the deal. Presented to me by a non-BA, and more often than not I would simply reject this, but as I have not yet formally reviewed it, I thought I should go ahead and record my thoughts.
Pour is actually quite good. A really nice head on top of the crystal clear, light yellow body. No skunk, just mild alcohol and corn in the nose. To be honest, considering the style I would say the aroma was above average. The head however, fades in seconds rather than minutes.
Sweet notes are the initial tastes, but this fades quickly to a dry, clean finish. Not much else other than some mild alcohol, but really not at all bad.
I did not find this offensive in the slightest, and with the price and the ABV of 7.5% ABV you could do a heck of a lot worse. I’m not recommending it, but at the same time I would not totally dismiss this out of hand.
