Malt liquor
Malt liquor is a type of beer that is brewed with a higher alcohol content, typically between 6% and 9% ABV, compared to regular beer. It is made using malted barley, along with adjunct grains like corn or rice, which help increase fermentation efficiency and alcohol levels. Malt liquor often has a lighter color, a smooth taste, and a slightly sweet or neutral flavor. It is frequently sold in larger bottles or cans and is popular for its strength and affordability. Despite its name, it’s a beer product and shares similar brewing processes, just with a focus on higher alcohol production.
