Educate a brother. WHY IS MALT LIQUOR CONSIDERED BAD FOR YOU?
- Thread starter Rocky Miavia
- Start date
Malt liqour used to be target towards white folks in the 1940's I believe. Then did did a demographic research study and found that most people who burought malt liquor were black people in the inner city. Thats why in the early 80's you saw a lot of marketing of Malt Liqour towards black, (Billy Dee).Oh drink two 40oz of bud or any non malt beverages and then drink two 40's of Ides, Or colt, and tell me which has you feeling worst in the morning.

Yea I like the shit, but I get sick when I drink it so I leave it alone.
If there's no difference, then why is Malt Liquor at least 30% cheaper than regular beer? The amount of alcohol is a lot higher in Malt Liquor. Just like the amount of Nicotine in Newport Cigarettes.
i told you why because it is made from the bottom of the barrel sentiments and shit.
**Opens second can of JOOSE, pours in a lil Rum, and sips**
Here is what I found. There used to be a book called 'One Million Bottlebags' as well, but I can't find any reference to it

It's just like any other liquor. 1 beer/ glass of wine/ mixed drink a day is fine for you. More than two are terrible for your health.
As for malt liquor, it's just like doggish said. It's not inherently worse for you than any other booze. It's just "cheap" booze, with a higher alcohol content than beer. For example, Stoly's is no worse for you than Absolute. It is just a cheaper quality of vodka than Absolute. If you like drinking the cheap stuff, then, have at it. Otherwise, just drink what tastes good to you.

Well, Hell.
If it makes tiddies grow like this, then I'm buying a bottle for every broad in my book.

I used to fucks with Old E, straight cave mannin' it!
For real it's nothing wrong with it. Just a cheap way to get drunk.
OK I found it here you go:
"Now, mainstream beers are made with ingredients such as corn sugar, yeast, malt extracts, and Irish moss (Papazian, 1997). The waste reside (malt) of mainstream beers, like Budweiser, is then mixed with chemicals such as methanol, formaldehyde, white sugar and bleach to make malt liquor beer (Afrika, 1999). The fact that malt liquor beer is made from the waste of other beers allows it to be sold in containers more than twice the size of regular beers for half the price (Brown, 1996)."

Reasons not to drink it.
1. High alcohol content, will get you messed up faster. Which will also make you act more stupid. In my opinion malt liquor is a young mans drink.
2. It is made of left overs from what all the other beers are made from. The malt that is at the bottom of the vat which is full of dead insects and other shit you don't want to know about.

/fuckinthread.
Good find... I never had a taste for the stuff. If it's marketed to blacks, you know it's bad for you.
I heard it contains formaldehyde
So does diet pepsi.
Good question but I noticed that shit is only marketed towards black people. That should tell you something.
Thats why, cause it's cheap and marketed to the black community!!!
shit, most people i know PERIOD only mess with Newports...never seen anyone w/ Marlboros or anything else
You do realize on the page you quoted, it's pointing out that the quote is not true. There is NO evidence of formaldehyde in malt liquor. It's a wives' tale, equivalent to pouring coca-cola over a pork chop to get worms.
A Story without Heroes:
The Cautionary Tale of Malt Liquor
April 30, 2005
The family of American-born beers speaks proudly about two of its children. Ask about Steam Beer or the less gifted but very popular Light Beer, and the photos come out, the stories begin. But speak aloud the name of the other sibling, and the room grows quiet. Dad won't look up from his plate and Mom goes into the kitchen and cries into her apron. How could you mention Malt Liquor?
A Humble Birth, A Proper Upbringing
Born in the late 1930's, Malt Liquor looked like a promising child. Brewing had returned with the Repeal of Prohibition in 1933, but the Depression was making things tough for brewers, and beer drinkers complained that their beer lacked the "kick" it had before. And then, in the 1940's, World War II came and America was rationing. Everything was tight at the nation's breweries. Not enough metal for bottle caps or cans, not enough gas for the delivery trucks or rubber for tires, not enough malt to make beer. Some brewers were even using sorghum and potatoes to fill out the mash.
Two brewers in the Midwest had an idea. At the Grand Valley Brewing Company in Ionia, Michigan, some time around 1937, Clarence "Click" Koerber first brewed Clix Malt Liquor. At Gluek Brewing in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Alvin Gluek had a similar idea in 1942. The grandson of the brewery's founder, Alvin was happiest in the laboratory, tinkering. And one day, he found a way to brew a beer that would use less malt but have more of a kick. He named his malt liquor Sparkling Stite by Gluek, courting drinkers with champagne aspirations. Envisioned as an upscale product, Sparkling Stite was even promoted with score pads for bridge players.

Actually, it's not. I just had a brewer for Iron Hill brewery on my show yesterday. just like dude said in an earlier post it's made with the cheapest material so it gets the higher alcahol content. Beeers like Dog Fish Head are actually malt liquor but are sold as a beer to white folks.
What about that malt liquor?
Well my friend he is wrong. Like i said they make it from the same basic ingredients that you would use to brew beer. After the beer is brewed what is left in the kettle is then mixed with some cheaper ingredients to produce the malted beverage whether it be a 40oz of old E or a mikes hard. Did the brewer from Iron Hill tell you they have a beer on their list with high alcohol contents? People define malt liquor as any beer above 5% so some of the most popular beers out there have contents about that
Blue Moon 5.4%
Sierra Nevada all of their beers start at 5% or higher
Sam Adams Cherry Wheat a very sweet beer 5.2%
Actually, it's any beer over 6% or higher. And I'll take the word of a man that has been in the business for over 25 years then guys on this board.
