Posts: 35472 (04/10/05 12:34 PM) Administrator Labeorphile Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	American: Had some beef stew for dinner, with lots of brown gravy. It brought on some vicious farts & eventually a need to dump that was as great as my need to drink. I had no magazines nearby & needed something to help pass the time - FAST! So I grabbed a 40 out of the fridge & sat down for a good 30 min's of pleasure... some pleasure flowing in, some pleasure flowing out. This 40 started, maintained, & ended smoothly. It's been over an hour now since I drank (dumped) it & heartburn is kicking in... who the hell knows what that's from, but the Colt 45 is the #1 suspect. The flava was very nice, your basic malt but with no negatives. And a very slight buzz for a malt that is not high in alcohol content. There is a reason Colt 45 is so widely dispersed, so highly endorsed, and so lovingly consumed. Cuz it works everytime. 8/10 swills for being an excellent malt all around. Not higher because the taste is nothing out of the ordinary & the alcohol content needs to be jacked up a little bit so we can get just a lil' more bang for our buck. Canadian: I don't know what my problem was the 1st time I had the canadian Colt back on a roadtrip to Montreal, I thought it tasted like hell, but I was kinda drunk at the time. To be honest all I remember was my roommate Beerface taking one sip & puking into the sink in a tiny motel room the 5 of us were sharing up there. This time around I thought it was pretty decent, especially being 3% stronger than the American version. Tasted like most 8% 40s, not bad at all. The swill was rough, it gave a decent buzz, and I like it when faggots get punched in the face. That being said, 8/10 swills! Much thanks out to ThUgWiGGa & Dirty D for these! OLD REVIEWS: *Quote:* 40 Ounce Legend the absolute favorite malt liquor of 40 ounce legend. I love this stuff to death. Nothing compares to it as far as smooth taste, getting fucked up, and still being able to mount all night. 10 stars to itand bonus points for having billy d williams as a spokesman. 4TDogg Regardless of whether he betrayed Han solo - Billie Dee will always be the man for pitching the Colt. Second only to OE for drinkability, taste - this 40 is a great start to night of drinking. It really does work every fucking time. 10 out of 10. BrainDamage702 lovely 40 right here, taste is damn good, swill isnt bad, the only thing from stopping it from getting a 10 iz it seems to get warm real quick.. 9 outta 10! Buzzcore There's an awesome old school skatepark right down the street from the old National Brewery in Baltimore, and I used to always gawk at the huge Colt 45 logo on the building, proudly telling all the world "This is the gawd damn undisputed MF'ing HOME of smoove malt liquor!" (Say it like Billy D would....it makes it funnier, trust me.) Then I remember the first time I saw that the sign was down.........it was a bummer to say the least, so obviously you know I REALLY want to like this stuff. I know it's a classic, but it's always really fizzy (too much carbonation) and doesn't have much of a kick (contrary to whatever the horse on the bottle thinks), percentage-wise. Always gets all foamy and makes you feel full. How am I supposed to get drunk, when one 22 ouncer (The "Double Deuce" is a great name, by the way!) makes me feel like I've drank an entire keg??? Sorry, I've tried it (several times), and tried it again (several more times) and it doesn't live up to it's rep.............hell, maybe that's why Billy D isn't hawkin' this stuff anymore? 4 points for the USA stuff (it'd get just three, if it wasn't for the fact that C-45 is a classic) and 6 for the high octane Canadian edition, which is made in LaCrosse, WI by the makers of Camo (who were making C-45 before all the Pabst takeover/bankruptcy crap in the states). Coleman The Ape There's three things I look for in an alcoholic beverage: Taste, Price and the ability to get me roasted. Colt 45 has it all. Cold Colt 45 is the easiest drinkin' malt on the market; I'd describe it as a flat beer but with that sweet, sweet malt aftertaste. Even when it gets warm, it still goes down easy with only a hint of piss-like aftertaste. One 40 oz gets me nicely trashed, but then I am a big fucking lush. Still, two 40s can be had in Canada for 9 bucks, you can't go wrong with that. As a bonus, Colt bottle is an instant conversation-starter and does an excellent imitation of a bat when you want to end said conversations. . .fast. And Billy fucking Dee is the man!!! Drastic Mezures Colt 45 is one of my favorite 40s. This is the 40 that got me started on malt liquor. I got introduced to Colt 45 from my friend Speedy. We were at a park one night and he did the Colt 45 double punch. The double punch is when you have two opened 40s and you switch back and forth between both of them until they're finished, or you can just drink both of them at the same time but then half of it winds up on the floor. This was back in the day when they came in the 45 oz. bottles. hg8point2 aahhhhhhh! thats whats comes to mind when i think about this fine malt.had one the other day and"it works every time." always a nice hiss from an ice cold 45,i love that genuine malt flavor and the swill ain't nothing dangerous.colt 45 is a true malt classic.it's one of my favorites 8/10. High Gravity Swilla What can you say?-- Its the Colt!!- One of my all time faves. Always goes down smooth all the way to the swill.- I love drinkin this one straight out the freezer- ICE COLD. Just like alot of shit in life - you cant beat a real original- If you love malt you gotta love the Colt - cause hell- it does it every time!!! 9 out of 10 swills. ImissMy64oz my first 40 and a good 40 at that actually was a 45 shits #1 good stuff good taste goood swill good label IMT40s Colt 45 is one of the best and one of the worst 40's out there. Of course we all know Billy D. Williams propped it with the line "it works every time". But in all reallity it's a fairly weak malt liquor at 5.6%. I find I have to put it in the freezer for about 25 minutes before I crack it open, then its like drinking liquid heaven, It really is one of my favorites, but as soon as it gets halfway warm it tastes like Chewbacca's ass. So Colt 45 comes in at a 7 out of 10. I would have gave it a 6.5 but I'll give an extra .5 just because of its history. lookin 4 a 40 This malt is another classic, as i was drinkin this I tasted a corn mash flavor in the middle,but other than that it gave a decent buzz and wasnt that hard to down...7/10 brown paper bags. rage60oz Drank a colt45 tonight, went down really smooth. Not much else to say here other than its a classic. One of my friends got a colt45 tattoo one time, so its gotta be a cool drink. I'll rate it at 8/10 swills because shit I hadn't ever had one before and I'm just a beginner at the magical c45. Gave me a slight buzz, nothing a few jr. bacon cheeseburgers at wendy's couldn't cure. RickCarling Canadian: One of the greatest malts in history...or as we call them in canada "strong beers"...fuck that shit. Colt 45 is awesome as hell. The first time i drank one i got an excellent buzz and loved it, so i had to get more. This is easily my favorite 40 of right now, next to the truly awesome CBL Big 10, so this 40 deserves a 10/10 swillz for being amazingly good in all aspects. RTR tm Legendary malt licka...this stuff can't be beat! In the words of my man Billy Dee, "GodDAMN! That be smooth!" When I wanna get drunk, and I am short on cash, I just buy me a 40 of Colt 45 and it does me alright. No other 40 deserves 10 outta 10 more! satan165 American: Extremely smooth, but not a strong enough buzz for me. It should fit into a catagory with OE but OE will get you lifted much more nicely. I even dare to say, a Colt is bit overrated. This would be good for an event like a BBQ where you are eating and maybe dont want to get trashed or plan on drinking multiple 40s. Although in that case, I would certainly choose a Schlitz Blue Bull, but thats just me. Colt has the true reputation and name-recognition though that earns it extra points. 8 of 10 swills for a weak buzz Buzz: C+, Taste: B- Canadian: Special Thanx goes out to my main man from the great white north, Sgt. J-Mo! This 40 is very similar to the Canadian Big Bear. VERY similar: both have the widemouth, both have an alcohol tinge/sweetness....tastes bad at first, I'm half way thru and feelin' warm already. I drink American Colt 45 constantly because its widely available and tastes great. This tastes worse but is stronger...I don't figure that the tradeoff is worthwhile in the end though. Buzz: B+, Taste: C+ They Call Me Dirty D Colt 45 is the shit. It was my first 40, the one that got me hooked. I still drink it 90% of the time as its about the best 40 I can get in Alberta. It also inspired us to make the 40 Mobile (see drunk in public pictures) which was great until it got stolen ThUgWiGGa canadian: Awesome crack, this 40 sounded awesome. i was on cam with nitz while drinkin this, and thanks to him i enjoyed it alot. he suggested i put it in the freezer for 25 mins. An hour later i cracked this bitch. Initial reaction: FUCKIN AWESOME. Tatses like malt licka heaven. Super smooth, while maintaining the sweet taste of malt liquor. Ask nitz, no lie i downed half of it in less than 5 mins, of course i slowed down after thatt. I really really like this malt... i mean "strong beer" fuckin canada. this is my NEW favourite. Madd props to YPMO for ttelling me mthis can be found at the LCBO. Colt 45 works every fuckin time. udapte: definitely drank it way too fastm i puked like a bitch man Tiger Tai Ahhhh Colt 45 taking it back wit Billy Dee. It's hard not to like Colt considering it used to be brewed here in Baltimore and it's endorsed by my main man Lando. not the best tasting but far from the worst.... I'll give Colt 45 7 of 10 Swills. uk82chaospunk used to drink this shit back in my st. ides days, used to drink ides and then a colt or the other way around....tastes really damn good, best tasting 40 i've ever tried (except OE)....went down smooth all the way down to the swill and the swill was good too...this is a classic malt, really damn good, not too strong too...got a little buzz off it....yes Boggy got a buzz from drinking a 40, i havent eating in about 10 hours so i guess thats why...billy dee used to do adds for colt so that adds extra points to it, i would drink like 3 of these to get drunk off, but i cant afford that so i drink OE (OE is my fav 40) gotta go pack now, going to san francisco tomorrow...hopefullly i'll find camo there...if you never drank a 40 of colt, you better...its the shit...9 out of 10 swills for colt (would be a 10 ifit was stronger) YerPissingMeOff I used to drink this shit back in the day and I think it was the first 40 i ever had, well today I decided to retry it and bring back some memories, and it does live up to its name, this shit is one of the best 40's out there. It goes down soooo smooth, so I decided to chug half of it, nice relaxing Buzz, and you're more capable of pulling off simple tasks after drinking this shit than other 40's but you still feel chillin. I can't believe I forgot all about it, it's just ever since Black Bull came out I haven't been drinkin much of anything else. 8 outta 10 swills (only cuz I'm used to the 10 percent now an this seemed a little bit weak at 8%)

I can down a 40 in 5 minutes without meaning to drink it fast. I take a swig and have to take another and so on. Its jus great. Buzz is more of a clean not cheap feeling buzz. But you need a few 40's to get drunk. 7/10 swills. More if it had more buzz. Swisha, My eyes half way open, Im chokin, But bitch im still swillin and smokin, You get the cigar, Nigga i do the stuffin, Get rid of them nickels and dimes, Nigga we smoke pounds.

I had it in the freezer before I drank so it was near ice when I took it out, just the way I like it. I wish there was more alcohol in it though....light buzz if any. 7 outta 10 swills

Posts: 1 (02/24/06 9:48 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Hey, Skip Pawn here! Colt 45 is among the best malt liquors I've tasted. They all tend to have strong after-tastes, in my opinion. But it doesn't taste as bad as making out with a chick who hasn't brushed her teeth. You can really get torn up really quickly on Colt. I drink the 24 ounce cans with my buddy. Am I allowed to mention marijuana? We usually smoke joints and drink some beers. All in all, malt liquor vs. , say, Budweiser or Heineken is not like comparing major league baseball to Triple A baseball. It's not a demotion to navigate the rows of malt liquors. Sure, maybe you're unemployed and can't shell out the $7.49 or so for a six pack of Guiness, but the result is going to be the same, anyway. You'll either be passed out on your friend's couch or arguing with the apartment manager about the toilet that hasn't been fixed. Thanks!

Posts: 4062 (03/02/06 6:58 PM) High and Dry Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	For some reason I've neglected to ever review this beer. This is among the first malts I ever drank. At the time I thought the whole gimmick with Colt 45 was the 45oz. bottles. 5 extra ounces.. why not? I was a fan immediately; little did I know that was just for a little while. Good crack, funky smell.. this is real-deal American malt liquor here, folks. Colt 45, OE, and King Cobra are what I consider benchmark malt liquors. Colt is the funkiest of the three, and I argue that it gets me more hammered than the other two. Colt can sneak up on you. Luckily it doesn't taste as bad as it smells.. good strong beer flavor, about what you'd expect from the appearance. Its what my man satan165 might call a "taste sensation." Colt 45's longevity/historical importance in conjunction with its consistent flavor and buzz yield a solid 8 out of 10 swills.

Rough flavor, like Bull Max kinda but worse. It certainly doesn't taste like silver 211 but that's my comparison in terms of harshness, buzz and hangover. meh, not much to say else. Taste: C Buzz: B+. Widemouth never ceases to amaze me. Average strong canuck beer.

Posts: 85 (05/04/06 1:55 PM) Drunk Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Delicious tasting 40, but pretty weak buzz at 5.6%. The taste is where Colt 45 comes through, best tasting 40 ever. Also, it has a classic reputation that is only mathced by Olde English. 7/10 swills because of the weak alchohol content. stay swillin'

Posts: 40 (05/21/06 8:11 PM) Malt Wanksta Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	This is a pretty standard, no frills malt liquor. I consider it one of the holy triumvirate of the most popular, readily available & identifiable 40's (the others being OE & St. Ides). This doesn't have any weird aftertaste like St. Ides does though. I know people are complaining about the relatively lower alcohol content, but I found the buzz factor decent. It helped me through washing my clothes at the laundrymat this Sunday afternoon. Overall rating: 7 out of 10 swigs

A better pounding 40. It's waking me up too. Nope now I'm drunk. Good to the last drop. If I drink anything quick enough it'll hit me. Anyway 8 outta 10 chugs.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	this one goes down smooth as fuck, but that's why i don't like it: the last time i had one i killed it so fast that i vomited, AND i puked so soon after finishing it that my puke was ice cold. it's not a bad forty, though. doesn't give me a very impressive buzz, but the appeal of drinking a beverage repped by one mr. billy dee williams (although i'm much too young to remember the advertisements) is pretty high.

I swilled my first Canadian Colt just a few nites ago while playing Guitar Heroe 2 at my brothers house. The 40 had a decent crack to it & a fantastic swill. Went down easy, although the flavor wasnt the best in the world. Over all its decent, wouldnt be my first choice in a brew, but still pretty decent. 7 outta 10 swills for giving me a decent buzz.

Posts: 309 (04/08/07 2:05 PM) 40oz Crew Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Good old Colt 45. Its a standby, a staple 40. I had two one night recently and I was surprised at the strong buzz I had at the end of the first one and really surprised at how hammered I was at the end of the second one. I'm no lightweight, I'm a hardened heavy boozer, which is why I was surprised how tanked I got off of two of em. There are many factors when determining how drunk you get: what you ate that day, how much sleep you got, etc., etc. Good Old Colt 45 did the damn trick though. Hell, if its good enough for Billy Dee, its good enough for me. 8/10.

I'm really excited, as I just visited a bottle shop in my city that I've never been to before and found TWO new 40's, Colt 45 and Pabst Blue Ribbon. I have to say, I've had Colt 45 out of 16oz. cans and this 40 tastes way, way better. I can't believe how good this shit is as a 40. Smooth as fuck. Seriously, this is easily the smoothest malt I've ever had. It was ice cold when I took it out of the freezer, and even now as it is warming up the taste hasn't really changed. Speaking of taste, you can tell this is a malt but it really lacks any sort flavor, nothing distinctive. Also lacking is alcohol, I'm only getting a little bit of a buzz from this one. I'm really impressed, I only bought the bottle for my collection and wasn't really feeling like drinking it but now I'm glad I did. This is definitely something I'm going to add to my drinking rotation. 8/10 for being a super solid 40 and a classic. It is really easy drinking, cheap ($1.99 for the 40), and fucking Billy fucking D. fucking Williams.

Posts: 2703 (09/02/07 12:42 AM) Whore Island Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I've drank more Colt 45s than any other malt (except for Magnum I think). It used to be my favorite until Magnum's availability and price coerced me. I haven't been drinking them regularly for about a year. I remember having one a couple months ago. I hated it. It tasted too sweet. But I gave it a second chance tonight. I bought two. over $5.00 at the local spot. Sucks. The first had an awesome crack. (Like 8 of those little clicks when you break the seal). It didn't taste too sweet at all. Just right. Not "musty" like others claim. I took my time with this 40 oz. I popped in Dawn of the Dead, broke open a bag of beef jerky, and swilled this malt. Not extremely impressive but not as bad as I thought. Killed the swill while getting into some shit with Sam the Angry Jew in the Alley. All in good fun. I would give it an 8 out of 10... Except whenever I drink 45 at parties, at least three or four assholes have to start up with that "Colt 45 and two zig zags" song. I hate it so much. Subtracting two stars. 6 out of 10.

Posts: 173 (09/13/07 10:21 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Took me a surprisingly long time to try this one, the last mainstream malt I had. In my part of the DC area, this is hard to come by in 40s, I've seen it in 32's more frequently and the Double Malt is far more common. Anyway, this is a very nice tasting basic malt; I can see why it's at classic status. Good robust taste that even a beer drinker could enjoy. I however prefer the thicker sweeter taste of the Double Malt. The buzz was as weak as you'd expect from a 40 of this alcohol content. The swill was just fantastic, warm but palatable. I don't know that I'd take Billy Dee's claim that it works every time to heart, you'd probably need at least 2, but it has a fine taste and you'll definitely enjoy it while it's going down. 9/10 for taste, 5/10 for buzz (marginally better than drinking 40 oz of beer) so average it out to be 7/10.

Smoked a...well, you know, and the beer tastes great with a couple of slices of sausage pizza from Papa John's( I work there and I took a left over pizza home). This might be one of the best beers I have had( except for Yuengling Porter). Don't get me wrong, the flavor is nothing spectacular, but it is a clean, decent tasting, bottle of beer. Inexpensive( I wont say cheap, because it is not "cheap")where I come from anyways( 3 bucks in a small bar that used to be an old house). The state of Pennsylvania has a monopoly on all alcohol sales and only bars are allowed to sell 40 ounces. But anyways. Good job from a newly converted Colt 45 drinker. 9/10 swills.
