Jun 25, 2005 Bang! Smack! Kapow! This has a strong alcohol finish with a great aroma of raisins and prunes. Other aromas noted were dark brown sugar and molasses. But don’t let those fool you - it still has a great bitterness expected in a barley wine. It had a little more carbonation than expected and the warmer it gets the mor syrupy it feels. This has a great soothing aftertaste. Take your time enjoying this one. Indiana_Red brought this one to my house along with his bling!
