Mar 10, 2004 2003 bottle. Pours a dark muddy brown color, thin tan head, nice lace. Aroma is predominantly sweet malt, some nuttiness. Flavor is big malt up front with bits of hops and a hell of a lot of alcohol. Fuller body, kind of sticky, lots of fire going down the gullet. I've had plenty worse.

Apr 7, 2002 Updated: Aug 13, 2003Dark auburn, fizzy white head. The nose is very fruity and sweet with malt. Alcohol being dominant. Te body is spritzy and very sweet. Finishes hoppy and strangely dry. Below average barley wine.

Jan 30, 2008 Pours dark malty brown with almost no head. Very malty aroma with a hint dried fruit, brown sugar, and caramel malt . Taste is smooth and malty with just a hint of roasted malt and maybe a little bit of the hops. The malt hides some of the hops, but you get a little of the hop bitterness in the finish. Definitely a very malt driven barley wine and will be interesting with some aging.

Feb 22, 2006 Dark brown in color w/ a sweet malty nose. Medium nectar. Well ballanced. This is a sweet, rather friendly version of this genre. Real easy to drink so watchout w/ the 10.5 ABV. Slightly more interesting than Youngs St. Nick. I detected a slight bitter peach pit on the finish that adds complexity to this not so complex brew. Alcohol is well hidden.

Jun 19, 2007 12 oz bottle from DiCarlo Mundelien vintage 06E? Pours a clear dark brown red. Abundant malty nose, red fruits cookie, hint of alcohol. Cookie/toasted and fruit are the first notes on my tongue fading into chocolate, licorice, and bittering pine in the finish. Definitely what i was in the mood for, and pretty decent.
