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.

Blom (777) - Odense, DENMARK - FEB 7, 2010
Poured in the glass, EKU 28 is a very beautiful beer - mahogani with a low, but dense head. Aroma of oak, vanilla and caramel. Full-bodied, sticky texture - and flavours that are perhaps a bit too sweet and malty for my taste (almost sherry-like) - heavy on the alcohol presence.

ScottyP (425) - Brentwood, Tennessee, USA - FEB 5, 2010
Pours a clear copper with light soapy head. Overly sweet, boozy aroma. Sticky sweet, syrupy taste, some fruity notes. Pretty malty with a hot, bitter sweet finish.

Barrios (1243) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - FEB 5, 2010
Pours a copper body with a lasting ring of off-white head. Aromas of oats, dark wheat bread, honey, and butter. Flavor can be described the same way but with alcohol. Hot, buttery, sweet finish.

MrGGen (300) - ITALY - JAN 23, 2010
Versa un bel colore ambrato, appena velato, e una bella schiuma.Aroma forte di malto, caramello, caramella mou,noci e alcool. Ha un medio corpo, forte sapore di malto, dolce, frutta a guscio troppo dolce,molto alcolico forse anche troppo,riscalda parecchio. In pratica molto dolce e molto alcoolica.Ma tutt’altro che una birra da supermercato,anzi discretamente complessa.

Ratman197 (5526) - Arvada, Colorado, USA - JAN 6, 2010
Bottle poured a clear tarnished copper with a lingering ring of amber foam. Aromas of prune, raisin, carmel, molasses and pepper. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a earming finish. Flavors of prune, raisin, fig, brown sugar and pepperr with a smooth warming lingering sweet malty finish.
