Commercial Description:
This world-famous beer has the character and richness to stand in for fine sherry or port. Just the right degree of sweetness - never cloying; wonderfully aromatic and warming. EKU 28 is the one whenever something good and strong is needed.

Bottle thanks to footbalm. Pours a clear and dark amber with a thin white head. The aroma is very nice; tons of fruit, alcohol, rich malt and syrup. The taste is very smooth and nice; a rich fruit aspect, sweet candy, a toasted malt, and overall a pervasive warmth that I enjoyed. Very nice.

The myth. Pours clear, vibrant amber with a moderate, crisp, offwhite head. No retention, no lace. Smells sweet and rich just like port. Malty sweetness for sure. Tastes sweet and malty thick, some alcohol flavor, almost a slight scotch, peat, wood type flavor as well. Medium, syrupy body, good carbonation.

A very prevalent sweet malted flavor, caramel nuts and so on- clear copper colour with a small sized white head. This beer is strong for the price and i recommend trying it.

Amber color and a small but delisicious head. Very fruity(raisins?) and liqueric aroma. The taste is liquric too, alcoholic, but it doesn’t hurt my palate. Flavour of raisins, honey, some tart and dry aftertaste. Syrupy beer warms me up...Hard one.

Sweet fruity aroma. Malty with notes of honey. Deep golden amber color. Off-white head. Strong fruit flavor, very rich with no bitterness. A bit of tartness in the finish. Full bodied and very sugary. Many a little too sweet but a good beer nonetheless.

Bottle. Very malty smell, a little bit like molasses, moderate alcoholic. A small off-white fizzy head, fast and fully diminishing, a dark red body. Moderate bitter start and finish on the palate, average duration. Heavy alcoholic taste, medium to full body, oily texture and a flat carbonation.
