Feb 22, 2003 - clear, red/amber color, short white head, aroma is very hoppy, but laced with alcohol and a cherry/prune fruitiness, very clean and almost citrusy; flavor has a strong alcohol presence, but is also well hopped, fruity and tart, smooth, the taste of strong alcohol and hop flavor is definitely different, a sipping beer, nice rich texture

Dec 17, 2002 This beer is incredible! The alcohol is masked very well by the sweetness, and it smells like candy. Very complex and extremely delightful.

Apr 14, 2003 I may have to marry the Victory guy--(I hope it is a guy.) A nice, inviting brew from nose to finish...very pleasing.

Apr 1, 2003 A much smoother barleywine than Bell's Third Coast Old Ale- not as hoppy either. The hop, however is pronounced enough to balance the fruity sweetness nicely. Old Horizontal is top notch. I need to have a barleywine-off between Horizontal, Bell's Third Coast Old Ale and Three Floyd's Behemouth. Based on memory I'd give it to Three Floyds since their crazy hops are the best I've tasted.

Apr 27, 2003 This is the very best of the Victory beers. From the enchanting smell and color. It is hard to believe that there is 11% alcohol in this...it is so smooth and the flavors just make you want to keep drinking, you can't put this one down. Each sip gets better and better. Perfect blend of hops with the citrus taste at the end. This is a beer to fall in love with!

Dec 1, 2004 Lightly cloudy amber, with little head. Creamy nose of cherry fruit and malt with slight hops. Heavey flavor with sweetness that abounds and lingers on and on with a pleasant hop finish. Flavors of vanilla, cherry, toffee, carmel, malt and light piney hops. Wow always a favorite!
