Bruz: I got this 3 hours away in Farmington, CT while I was up there interviewing for a Wholesale Account Executive position with a mortgage lender. And I cracked it after a long productive day of online job hunting for the same position. Very cold, crisp easy to drink beer. An extremely clean taste. But such an easy tasting brew makes me realize how weak it is... not a 40 you'll get buzzed from. Going to fax my accountant some paperwork now, then continue watching Wife Swap (then 24). This is actually too easy to drink, so easy that it's a negative. It tastes like club soda, just carbonated water. No flavor what-so-ever. This Wife Swap show is hilarious and disturbing at the same time - these families are all a bunch of fucking assholes. Ate a lot of Tostitos with this crap. Swill's just like the rest. In the end, I can only justify giving this classic oldschool brew 5/10 swills. Many many thanks out to "CBL Charlie" for the oldest bottle in my collection - the uniquely shaped Black Label 40oz (missing label) from 1972!

DaHookUp7Mile: Finally grabbed one of these, Dont believe ive ever drank one before but they've always been around.

I like the label its got a classic look to it.

Nice crack but not much hiss. Not any smell to it. Barley any taste to it so far, It has a lil bit of the skunkyness you get off some batches of heinken but nothing bad. No buzz really, No taste really throughout the whole 40, Down to the swill now. Wasnt bad, Wasnt great, Like said just average. Id drink it at a bbq for sure, Ill give it a 6/10.

eyehategod7: This is one good smooth beer and cheap too, I can get six packs of this stuff for around $2.25. For an inexpensive good brew, you can't go wrong with Black Label Beer.

Fat John: Not really a whole lot to say about this 40.I found it in the suburbs of the D.Just your average plain ol' beer 40.Taste alright but not great.Flows pretty smoothly.Gave me a kinda warm feeling on this cold michigan night but no real buzz.Swill just flowed like the rest of it.I'm hittin this shit up with a rating of 5 outta 10 swills just because its average in every way so it doesn't really deserve lower but the weak(non-existent) buzz keeps it from getting any higher.

ImissMy64oz: got this from fat john
pounded it last night while watching scarface
it was awesome
great taste
nice little buzz
8/10
id drink this alot if i could get it

JoeWebberlione: First off Thanks to Dukesplace for hooking me up with this brew that I havent been able to have in quiet some time now! Crack was decent, smells like Ballentine or Gennese Ice. First taste makes me think smooth and slick. Used to smash these back in college, just as tasty as I remember. Doesnt taste like Ballentine though, tastes more like Old Milwaukee. This stuff packs a decent buzz for being a "bad beer" although maybe thats just due to the fact that I dont drink half as much as I used to. 8 out of 10 swills.

neufutur: This beer has a little bit of a bite to it, which makes me want to liken it to types like Ballantine. There is a decent body throughout this beer that will ensure you iwll have a decent time finishing up this beer. This is no Schaefer where one can just slam it down. It actually ttastes like beer, and for that, it gets another few style points. This was acquired in a trade with Dukesplace, and is deserving of a 7 out of 10. I'd grab this if I only had beer 40s to choose from, for sure.

satan165: Thanx to 40 oz killa for this bitch (and the Schaefer). This is no different then any other swill beer. Its definately better out of a 40. From a can it would be hardly drinkable. Who gives a fuck. Its totally average. Malts can taste funky but this is just boring.

White Mike: Got to try this today on a trade, thanks to 40 ounce killa. Haven't had a beer 40 in a long while, so this was refreshing. A good beer taste all the way down. None of the good or bad, side effects of malt tho, like a buzz, or a harsh swill. So worth trying, but not on a regular basis.
