Look: Clear light yellow with a medium white head that has great retention and leaves nice lacing.
Smell: A light, oily, rather unappealing malt scent is present.
Taste: Grainy bland malt with a strong corn finish that really takes this beer down.
Feel: Medium in the mouth but a tad watery.
Overall: I can tolerate beers that lack flavor, but this disgusting corn finish is a total puke-fest. If you drink Mickey’s quickly straight out of the bottle when it’s ice cold it’ll be a tolerable experience. Never let it warm up enough to taste that corn.

Not bad for a grilling beer for the price and abv. Better than other options that's just like this but less alcohol.

Very foamy head, looks pleasant. Smell is stronger and has more to offer than corporate lager in my opinion, though it’s still two dimensional with nothing but potent aromas of corn and malt. It tastes like corn flavored malt water, but has an unexpected fruitiness to it— I’m mostly getting apple, and it’s also pleasant. Feel is crisp, on the dryer end but not watery. Overall much better than I was expecting. Easily the best malt liquor I’ve had, though I’ll admit, all of what I’ve had in the past has been cheap and tasted horrible. I do think beer advocate's overall score of 61(as of writing this post) is too harsh.

An easy-drinking beer on a hot summer day. It tastes like beer. It is a heck of a lot better than most US macro brews, has puzzles on the cap, and the label was used as House of Pain's logo. I don't see any off-putting tastes there.

The flavor reminded me a bit of a lighter tasting Olde English 800, with a slight apple taste. I thought the hand grenade style bottle was cool, but I don’t think I’ll be purchasing this one again.
