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.

This was the first Eisbock I’ve ever tried and it certainly won’t be my last. This beer looked just great in the snifter, very clear amber that looks smooth like it has no carbonation. Reminds me of drinking a fine liquor or a port. Aroma has lots of alcohol, honey, apricot, grape, almost a wine like aroma. The taste is incredible and very sweet & syrupy, alcoholic, quite warming with even some hops here. I think this is the kind of beer you would either love or hate. I love it.

A dark amber colored beer, with a beige head. This disappears very quckly. The aroma is very malty, caramel and sirup sweet. The taste is very sweet as well, from caramel and sirup. It’s sticky. It’s warming because of the alcohol. This is not my favourite beer.

Reddish amber hue. Very small white head. Malty, caramel aroma--like a doppelbock. Flavor is strong, sweet, malty and has an alcohol kick and a half. Alcohol is also in aroma, and it is up front in the flavor. I would rather have a standard doppelbock, but this isn't terrible by any means.

Robe dorée à cuivrée très claire surmontée d’une mousse blanche automatiquement disparue. Arômes de malts munich et d’alcool. Saveurs de jus de raisin, d’alcool, de fruits rouges, de caramel. Les arômes embaument carrément la bouche. Houblon de soutien. Très intéressant...

Bottle. Poured amber with an off-white head that settles to a ring and left light lace. Sweet aromas of brown sugar, honey, and a light alcohol backing. The flavor found honey and malt with a light bourbon undertone. Medium body and sweet.

Light amber with a thin white head. Aroma of sweet malt and dried fruit, maybe a hint of almond. Taste is full of alcohol and sugary fruit, rich and sweet. Potent and very, very tasty.
