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.

11.2oz, no date. Pours a clear copper orange with a one finger fading light yellow head. Very sweet aroma consisting of nuts, maple syrup, brown sugar, raisins, light alcohol and cardboard. Taste is much the same--too much alcohol and too sweet. Has some straight bitterness with no discernible hops. Syrupy body, mod carbonation.

Strong beer that reminds me of the Danish ’47’ beer. Nice smooth and ritch flavor, with a bit of bitter ending. Can’t drink to much of this beer. Good to share with a friend...:-)

Big malts, very sweet, but with a potent alcoholic finish that somewhat detracts from the beer.

On tap at Papago in Tempe. My first eisbock. Smoother than expected. Semi sweet body, with fruitiness i would attribute to the yeast. Was told it was 12 percent on tap.

11.2 oz bottle ($2.49) from Holiday Wine Cellar: Orange-amber color with a medium off white head that fades to nothing fast. Aroma is rich ripe fruit with a metallic background. Flavor is rich with over ripe peach/apricot, some honey and a light spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied and smooth with moderate carbonation. Metallic aorma dissapaited and alcohol became more proment as it warmed.

$2.99 at Country Club Liquors; Caramelly, malty nose with some peachiness; copper with a beige ring of bubbles around the edge; flavor tastes like a whiskey mixed with berries, very unusual, like nothing else I’VE tasted,
