    I don’t care if the breweries change hands as long as the recipe doesn’t change

    9.1/10 in the Malt Liquor category is exceptional. I agree, good stuff.

      It really is good stuff. Thanks for watching, Xizor. I appreciate it!

    Good stuff! Colt 45 is still my favorite Malt Liquor, but Mickys is a close 2nd.

    Hearing that train blow by reminds of of the late Gene Clark's song, "Kansas City Southern".

      I am unfamiliar with that song. Yes, Mickey's is still going, strong. Well, perhaps not strong.

    $8.00 here in Oklahoma for a 6 pack. Only available in the "grenade" bottles. I do enjoy it though. Probably my favorite malt liquor. Cheers.

      That's rather expensive. Anyway, cheers, back to you!

    used to think this was exotic back when I was a kid in the early 80's. It used to have this pull tab style cap that was notorious for slicing the hell outta your fingers when you opened it. Ahh the good ole days.

    • @ronaldtheriot
      @ronaldtheriot  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I never saw those tabs, but I hear lots of people talking about them. Thanks for watching, George Vickery. I appreciate it!

    First time trying Mickey's, so I thought I would see if you had a review, and you always do! You never let us down Ronald. Thank you. I got a 6 pack of the 12 ounce bottles, for $5.99, so very affordable (meaning the beer snobs hate it even before they taste it). You always provide an honest and objective review. My personal view is that this is excellent for the price, very flavorful, easy drinking, full bodied, and full flavored. Not the best beer ever, but quite good, and well worth the price. Laissez les bons temps rouler!

    Love Mickeys! I just thought: wonder where the name came from? I think? I first bought it in a little convenience store? outside of the equally tiny 'town'? of Umbarger, TX. @1990. It was never my go to brew-enter 'Coors Original', but I got it for it's perceived 'malt liquor' extra 'hit'. Coincidentally, I just had a bottle of this brew last week! Had not had any in a long, long time. After your review Ronald, I'm gonna honor you with gettin me some more. You are my favorite/only, really, TH-cam celebrity. Thank you again. Hope you live long and never give up on us 'poor slobs' ha ha, out here in 'computer land'.

    I buy it from time to time in those 12oz bottles. Does pretty well around here actually. I'd give it 95/100 Solid A. I find its pretty balanced for an OG Malt Liquor. 2.5/5 Sugar Cubes. 2.5/5 Bread Slices. 2/5 Hop Cones. Leaves a lingering Citrus Bitter Note. Cheers!

    I've always liked Mickey's. It has a little grassy note, in my opinion, which I actually like. I like to keep a 40 oz bottle in the fridge for a weekend. That 'The Eagle' can, which I've never heard of before, is very attractive. I love good can and bottle designs!

    • @ronaldtheriot
      @ronaldtheriot  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I was oh so happy to have gotten The Eagle and Sterling, before it was too late.

  • @chrisstroud60
    @chrisstroud60 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    A good beer for sure. I just now got the 24oz cans in north Carolina. My only issue is it doesn't taste like a malt liquor to me. It's more like a premium beer to me. Maybe the 5.5 percentage was enough to slightly put it above premium beer standards. I guess the name sounds better if were to compare. Mikey's premium doesn't sound as good maybe
