EKU 28

pours a clear caramel color with a two finger creamy off white head. aroma is sweet caramel malt with some hops and bread. has a medium body with very good lacing and some carbonation. flavor is heavy sweet caramel malt and bread with some hops and a little alcohol burn. little creamy and oily on the tongue. pretty descent for my first eisbock.

Dark amber color with a port nose. Carmel mouth and very sweet malt. A surprisingly good brew.

Clear amber-brown color. White head that diminishes almost immediately, leaving behind a few soapy bubbles. Sweet aroma of caramel, malts, plums, and raisins. Intense, rich flavors of sweet malts, dried fruits (plums, dates, raisins), caramel, sugar, and alcohol. Dense, syrupy mouthfeel. This one should be consumed slowly.

Pours a clear dark amber. Nice banana and port nose with hints of smoke as well as butter rum. Nice powerful mouthfeel with hints of toffee, nuts, raisens, chocolate, and pure brown sugar malt sweetness. A very nice beer that is very underappreciated.

Dark transparant orange/copper with a small head. Sweet and malty aroma; toffee, caramel, sweet cookie-dough, port, candy sugar, alcohol, raisins. The taste was also dominated by the malt, very sweet & full-bodied, with enjoyable roasted malt notes. Medium/long finish. Large and thick mouthfeel, almost cloying from the sweet full-bodiedness, medium/light carbonation. Tasty.

At a 11% this seems more like a tangerine cough syrup than a beer. Kulmbacker makes a better Eisbock than this one. Page 155 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide only 413 out 500 Classic Brews to go.

11.2oz bottle poured a clear copper with off white head that vanished in seconds. Nice strong malty and dark fruit aroma. I get semi sweet caramel, dates, plums, alcohol and a slight hint of olives. This has a nice rich mouth feel. At the start I get a slight hint of olive, some tasty caramel and solid dark fruitiness. By midway the caramel sweetens and builds. Beyond midway the fruitiness takes over somewhat with growing alcohol warmth in the background. All of the flavor notes listed on the label really came true for me. This beer just reached out and gave me a warm hug.

11.2 oz bottle. Poured a crystal clear copper with minimal head. Aroma of fruity wine and malts. Flavor was malts, candy sugar, and a bit fruity. Too sweet and syrupy for my taste. It looked very nice, but I guess just not my type of beer.
