Sep 25, 2002 Medium orange-gold color, medium head. A medium bodied beer. Malty and slightly sweet. Taste is more like a sherry or port than a beer, but EKU 28 retains its beer character. Nice hop bite. Big bold beer. Mouthfeel is full and expansive. Finish is clean and smooth. Noticeable alcohol bite (11%). Aftertaste is malty and slightly sweet. Slight oily texture to this beer. A bit overpowering.

Jan 26, 2008 Bottle. Pours apple juice colored w/ a thin white head. Aroma is, oddly, scotch whisky. Taste is all kinds of malty, toffee, raisin, caramel, et cetera, et cetera. No hops to speak of. A little on the overly sweet side, but still good.

Feb 13, 2009 bottle. Copper pour, with a small white head. Slightly sweet fruity aroma. Sweet flavor as well, a little boozy as well. Pretty good.

Mar 21, 2009 Strong aroma of Banana bread and walnut. Pours a dark yellow amber with a full finger head. Rather pungent bourbony flavor. Not what I expected. Notes of malt and sticky pine, maybe caramel. Alcohol isnt hidden at all.

Jul 30, 2007 Copper with quick dissolving head. Alcohol, sugar, pine, light sour touches, with warming syrupy grapefruits, apricots, pears dancing on a drying finish. There were notes of apples, grapes and honey in this aromatic and warming brew. This one is probably best for after dinner or before bed. The abv is high, and the alcohol is present, but fairly well integrated into the whole of the brew.

Aug 16, 2005 (bottle) Clear amber colour with a small creamy white head. Sweet malty and fruity nose with hints of alcohol. Intense sweet flavour. Toastmalty taste with dried fruits and caramel and an alcoholic slightly hopbitter finish. Definitely not bad but it probably tastes better on a cold winter evening.

Aug 1, 2002 Updated: Feb 29, 2004fresh: oops i dropped a sugardaddy candy in my dog's food..oh wait, nevermind, that was the aroma of this beer...what do you get when you take a farm's load of barley malt, absolutely no hops, too much sugar, and some yeast??...this horrifically strong tasting brew!... I heard that suicide bombers in Afghanistan drink this right before they die so to take their minds off of the pain of dying...sorta like biting your lip when you stub your toe...substituting one pain for another...so if you ever stub your toe or plan on bombing a discotech or subway train..this beers for you (1.8) 1992 version, drank 2004: Wow, what a frickin' improvement..this was like a chocolate malt shake...similiar to an aged samiclaus.
