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.

Interesting fridge find. 2017 Dick Kicker Malt Liquor. Held up pretty well. Tastes like an apple brandy aged barley wine.

Very Boozy but much smoother after all these years in the fridge. Not to bad if you like Bourbon.

Den gjorde sig bra att stå i några år. Sista flaskan för min del. Men var först nu den var god 😋

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