DKML (2017)

Malt Liquor

Here you have what could be the first malt liquor worthy of a glass. Typically a slighted style, we thought we would class it up with a stay in the wood and a healthy dose of dry-hopping. A huge hit of corn gives this one a smooth sweetness while its time spent aging in bourbon barrels will give you reason to share. Be warned: this one’s a pry-off, not a twist-off.

Had these since 2017 and just realized I never rated it. Bourbon and booze notes still kicking. Maltiness has subdued. Thanks Dustin H. for having this with me.

This one did not get better with age, I'm glad that it didn't get any worse, but it tastes about the same.

Unique idea. Sweet, boozy, getting the bourbon and oak nicely. BUT I can’t shake a bittersweet taste: old college memories of 40oz malt liquor bottles.

This been in the back of the fridge a LOOONG time... What did my daughter tell me DKML stands for? Boozy and a little harsh. (Maybe cuz of 4 years in the fridge.) Makes me want to go on a bender. Better get a grip!

I decided to stop checking into beers, but this is so worthy of a show 🙌 Bourbon, malt, hops all perfectly melt together in this one. Burnt sugar nose with apples when you swallow. Helps that it’s been aging in the bottle these last four years 😂

DKML is needed on a warm spring night with a high of 32°, aged well in the 4th Cellar!

Strong, sweet, malty, and pretty well-balanced. Really nice. Bit disappointed that an off-licence sells a bottle that is 3 years past the expiration date for €7 though... I guess that means I have the 2017 edition (bottle only mentions expiration date).

Time did this one huge favors....no more overwhelming booze, drinking like a less sweet English Barleywine. Thanks for sharing Don 🍻

Don’t know why I don’t have a check in for this because I tried it when I first bought it and I didn’t like it at all. I’ve been sitting on the other three bottles since hoping it would mellow out and it totally has. Very smooth now.

2018 W aromacie wanilina, cukier kandyzowany, miód i bourbon. W smaku słodkie, waniliowe, likierowe, kokosowe, biszkoptowe. Goryczka niewielka, ziołowa. Sporo whisky, która pali w przełyk i burzy przyjemność degustacji. Co2 niskie, oleiste alkoholowe. 3.0

3.9. Hmmm. Now three years almost four years old and... This is an odd brew. I would say its now in its prime. The nose is wonderful, cherry, sweet bourbon, subtle booze. Mouthfeel is smooth. Flavor is boozy, sweetness, warming, cherry, malty odd finish.
