Aroma of some small chocolate? Also hops and malty.. Taste is nice hop bite, strong malt backbone to help balance it. Sweet but not sugary. A little warming from the alcohol. Nice texture and carbonation level. Good Barleywine. Thanks wolf. Swolf3 (253), Elkton, Maryland, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 22, 2009 Opaque reddish brown body with a medium sized off-white head. Hoppy nose with loads of sticky sweet caramel and some dark fruit. The flavor very sweet, and moderately bitter with heavy handed amounts of caramel/toffee, lots of grapefruit and pine hops, and a bit of raisin. A bit of cardboard/oxidation is evident. Full body is a tad rough with moderate carbonation and a long finish with chunky bitterness. Alcohol is evident throughout. Juelze (922), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma is toffee, alcohol and brown sugar. Taste is brown sugar, toffee, alcohol and strong caramel malt. Alcohol is well balanced and the beer finishes well balanced. Good stuff.

Pours a murky brown with a thin off-white ring and a few streaks of lacing. Aroma is a nice blend of caramel malts, and a bit of hoppiness. Taste is caramel malt, brown sugar, and resinous hops. Not bad. chicagodri (1074), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Feb 13, 2009 Great bonus from Bobby91w. I finally get to try a beer from Texas. Nice hoppy aroma and just a slight bit of malt, much more hops in the aroma than most Barley Wines. Pours a murky brown. It had a little bit of alcohol burn, but it is strangely smooth and easy to drink. Very good. kiefdog (1645), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 9, 2009 12oz bottle courtesy of screach. Pours a reddish dark brown color with a massive tannish-white almost butterscotch head that settles slowly and heavily laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of citrus, pine, grapefruit, honey, caramel, and some hints of spice. Flavor is sweet and floral as well with notes of toffee, caramel, honey, citrus, grapefruit, hops, spice, and phenol. Generally medium body with a sweet, floral hops finish. My first St. Arnold beer is a winner for sure. pantani (1902), Salinas, California, USA
