Horrible Beer Review - Natty Daddy



"Natty Daddy" is a new (or at least "new to me") 8% malt liquor released under the Natural Light brand. How it was ever decided that this is a thing the world needed is beyond me, but in the interests of educating everyone about this product I purchased a can to try. Also, I have a great many sins which need atoned for, and punishing myself with terrible booze seems as good a way to go about it as any.

Appearence: Pale straw, with a head that leaves almost as quickly as it arrives (though it's lively while it's around).



Smell: Not much odor, really. What is there is the same substandard grains and adjuncts odor you get with most American macro-brews.

Taste: The taste whatever Anheuser-Busch decided couldn't meet the high bar set for Bud Light. Mildly sour, with the barest hints of some kind of complexity, but it's gone before you can discern what it might have been. The alcohol note is subdued, considering the macro-brew (lack of) flavor, and the 8% content. The aftertaste tastes like failure.

Mouthfeel: Thin, with a medium carbonation. Nothing too offensive, but also nothing to get very excited about.

Drinkability: You can, if you feel you must.

Overall: A malt liquor for people who don't actually like malt liquor, they just want to get drunk quicker.

Horrible Beer Review - Colt 45 Raspberry Watermelon Blast



Colt 45 branded 'Raspberry Watermelon Blast' is a 12% "flavored malt beverage."

It seems everyone has taken the "fruity heavy-hitter" concept and gone balls-out with it. 12% is about as high as I've seen, but who knows how much further they can take it. I assume the alcohol content is boosted with spirits, so it isn't as if they are limited by natural fermentation.

Also, the can says "Please drink responsibly." Nothing says "responsible" like a 24 ounce serving of wine-strength booze with an art-class orgasm of colors, giant bubble-cursive text, and a rocking-out horse on the can.



Appearence: Hazy and pinkish. While there is initially a soda-like foam, it dissipates almost instantly. From looks alone, you could almost mistake this for a fruit juice.

Smell: You could almost mistake it for a fruit juice, that is, until you smell it. Not that it doesn't smell fruity; it absolutely -does-. But the smell also has a very unsavory quality. It smells like fruit juice you have tried to home-ferment in a trash bag, or perhaps the toilet, like a convict. Is "shit cooked up in prison" the inspiration for all these new beverages?

Taste: Fruity, but surprisingly subdued. Boozey.

Mouthfeel: Like soda pop, but more cloying. Not the worst thing I've had by a wide margin. No, that dubious honor still belongs to 'Tilt.' Also, there's an alcohol scratch at the back of your throat.

Drinkability: Make it cold, and make it quick. I can see this turning into a real monster if it warms up.

Overall: They cover it up with fruit flavors and a shit-ton of sugar, but the smell and the feel of the alcohol at the back of your throat don't lie: This is cheap, and rough. It makes regular 'ol Colt 45 malt liquor seem refined in comparison. Even for two and a half bucks a can you can do better.

Stella & I ate at Pinche Taqueria (yes, that's the actual name -  ) tonight.

They have a variation on the Moscow Mule that substitutes tequila for the vodka.

I think I'm hooked.
