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.

rosenbergh (3135) - Helsinki, FINLAND - NOV 11, 2011
330 ml bottle. From mein-biershop.de.
Clear mahogany colour with small off-white head. Sweetish malty aroma with typical strong strong Bock notes, bread and toffee. Strong malty flavour with berries, dark fruits, sugary sweetness and alcohol. The alcohol really can’t be passed - it’s there.

crajun (388) - , Texas, USA - NOV 8, 2011
solid; well below kumback for the style but decent beer. nice aroma - bready, cough drop (not the bad kind) toffee. amber pour 4 for palate. taste - helluva job of hiding the alcohol - taste a little cough syrupy, sweet but not overly so...

reebtogi (1551) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - OCT 26, 2011
330ml bottle pours a reddish brown color with a small beige head that quickly disappeared leaving little lacing behind. Aromas of roasted malts and light hops and alcohol. Taste is malty sweet with some underlying hops and traces of alcohol. Heavy bodied and lightly carbonated. A decent beer.

esjaygee (2496) - Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA - OCT 9, 2011
Clear reddish brown with a white sum layer atop. Aroma of toasted malt, burnt sugar, Munich malts, strange vegetation, alcohol and mild fruit. Booze bomb is way too sweet and sticky with sugar, malt and a noticeable burn. Meh.

77ships (735) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - OCT 8, 2011
bottle@Kulminator - where else? – clear amber coloured with a beige head which quickly disappears, never to be seen again, taste is very sweet and slightly cloying with caramel, maple syrup, aged hops, medium booze (it is boozy but not in a straight up alcohol kind of way), sticky malts, hint of sherry, body is nicely sticky but not quite cloying, not bad, this is exactly in line with what Dirk the owner of Kulminator likes (strong & sweet beers)
