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.

Poured a golden amber with a sparce head. Aroma was sweet and malty with some apples thrown in. Very malty sweet with more apples and a good amount of alcohol warming. The sweetness covers the alcohol taste though. Full-bodied.

bottle. Dark amber. Medium white head, disinegrates into lacing. Malty aroma. Super malty sweet taste, some hops. Slight alcohol burn. Tons better than Anheuser World Select. I love Eisbocks

Amber beer with a white head that vanished instantly. Aroma of sweet malt and alcohol. Flavor is very sweet somewhat offset by bitter hops. I get a lot more alcohol than other raters, but not in a bad way. A very nice warming beer, but I would prefer a Samichlaus.

Bottle, at No. 5. Dark golden with white head, fully disappearing. No lacings. Aroma very sweet. Flavor first very sweet (fruity), ending in a fine bitterness. Medium body, oily/creamy, the strength is felt.

Aroma is rather un inspiring. Yeah, its big and maly. I get a lot of alcohol too. Appearance is fine. Poured amber/orange with a completly disapating head. Maybe a dark cherry with some toastyness. Bitterness comes out good. Kind of slick across the tounge. Alcohol makes it pretty thin. I would have expected more from a beer with MJ’s recomendation right on the bottle.

pours orange and clear with a very weak malty nose, flavor is very nice, malty and sweet but offset by a nice amount of bittering hops. a medium body and smooth aftertaste, no hint of the abv anywhere. very enjoyable brew.

One of the two styles that are still lacking in my beer list: Eisbock. Amber coloured. Malty aroma with rye. Pretty sweet brew, and the alcohol isn’t even that obvious. And so now i only have to drink a cream ale...

Bottle. Brownish red with quickly vanishing head. Very sweet malty aroma. Taste is sticky sweet like surup. I am already a bit drunk and this is still warming and strong. Gonna get me messed up, but not a great beer.
