Bruz: The whole 40 tasted the same... in fact, it tastes (to my memory) like the oh-too-common brown-bottled wide mouth Canadian 40oz... Like a cross between beer + malt liquor. Piss factor is above average, the swill is average, and buzz factor for me is non-existant. And quite frankly, with the 10 year Treasury at about 4% federally taxable, this brew receives 6/10 swills, state & locally tax-free.
