I believe the euphemism in the brewing industry for those who drink malt
liquors is "ethnic market".

I always found it amusing that young blacks who drank malt liquor
(admittedly, mostly for the high) were ridiculed for paying a slightly
higher price for beer with a higher alcohol content while the white,
middle class was paying a higher price for beer that had LESS alcohol,
LESS taste and used LESS expensive ingredients and/or had MORE water
(i.e., "light" beer).

JK (yeah, I used to buy the occassional case of Heffenreffer Private
Stock Malt Liquor back in the days of the Falstaff Cranston RI brewery.
I could see a "relationship" between it and Ballantine XXX Ale, Croft
Ale and Pickwick Ale...).

They call it the "urban market," but yeah, it's a euphemism. Speaking as a
guy who writes about beer, it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to get mainstream brewers
to talk about their malt liquors. They just do not want to see anything
about them in print.

I remember the first time I tried malt liquor.
I believe it was Colt 45. I sat on my usual bar stool and drank the same
quantity as I would have regular beer.
It finally came time to eliminate some of the beer. I got off of the stool, and
WHAM! It hit me.
