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.

(500ml can) Pours a large yellow, frothy head and a clear, deep amber body. Nose of sweet molasses with some hidden hops. Very sweet malt with a tinny finish. Oily texture. Interesting... Good! Thanks Rudge75!

Not as bad as I thought it would be. Malt, alcohol, butterscotch, caramel, honey, very sweet aroma. No head. Very alcoholic sweet taste, alcohol is present but not overwhelimg. Very sweet.

Clear amber color, off white head, fully diminishing. Very sweet malt aroma, some alcohol. Flavor is big time malt, very sweet, not too sweet but damn close to my tolerance of sweet. Alcohol is fairly assertive, but overall masked pretty well. Full body. Not bad but it'll test your sweetness threshold.

Clear amber coloured, thin, quicly diminishing white head; big fruity (raisins or dried plums) nose, some traces of alcohol; heavy sweet start, full sweet malty flavour, low caerbonation, smooth, distinctive bitter-sweet ending. Good, but not a world class brew

33 cL bottle. Pours clear amber with a fast disappearing slight orange head. Heavy sweet corn aroma. Full bodied. Sweet corn flavour, slight berry fruity. Slight burning alcohol feel, clearly warming finish. Very nice.

A completely red beer with a little head that dissapears quicklier than you have the time to say "strong beer". Very concentrated aroma of malts and a little tobacco. The flavor is very concentrated by malts too, but has also obvious notes of strawberries and blackcurrants. The aftertaste is hopped and quite alcoholic, but compared to the ABV, the alcohol is hidden really well. Great palate; really sturdy beer that feels exceptionally creamy and soft in the mouth.

Bottle. Clear amber colour with small creamy white mostly lasting head. Malty aroma. Sweet spicy flavor.
