Clix is a brand of malt liquor first made by the Grand Valley Brewing Company in 1937. It is often credited as the first malt liquor brewed in the United States.[1] At Gluek Brewing in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Alvin Gluek had a similar idea in 1942. The style is light in body, thin and sweetish in taste, and high in alcohol.[2]
