4.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20 AWMiller (476) - Mansfield, Texas, USA - SEP 21, 2011
Hold yer horses boyz, I done found me one excellent doppelbock! Sweet, spicy and full of alcohol (11%!). Much like drinking a fine rum or fine port. Silky smooth, crisp, warming and so flavorful. Don’t spoil this brew with food; have it as a dessert brew after a rich meaty meal and you won’t be disappointed. Time to stock up for the winter! Definitely a brew to cellar for a couple of years.

Pours amber from bottle with a thin head. Aroma has a sweetness to it without being cloying. You can definitely taste the alcohol with this one. Nice after dinner drink.

Bottle at kegs and barrels This beer pours a rich amber with a thin off white head that dissipates quickly. The aromas are bread, cinnamon, dough. The mouthfeel is sticky and syrupy with a heavy body. This was a great malty beer (and I’m a hophead!). Cheers!

Bottle. Pours deep amber with beige head. Aroma of spicy malt, caramel and deep fruit notes. Flavor is much the same with a nice spicy kick and is sweet. Heavy body with medium high carbonation but oddly has hints of being watery. Overall, a solid brew.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 nike (500) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 5, 2011
When EKU 28 first came to Pittsburgh about 15-20 years ago, the 11% abv was at the time, the highest available. One of my favs, although I can only drink one in a night because of the sweetness (and alcohol). Excellent representative of German beer, well balanced, I prefer to allow the beer to sit at room temperature for a bit before consuming. Full body, dry, warm, alcohol finish. I’ll drink this before heading to bed, a brew that I will enjoy from time to time. A definite sipping beer, worth the try, you will not be disappointed!
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 mattphilips (718) - Budapest, HUNGARY - JUL 20, 2011
Sörspecialista, Budapest. Tükrös, világos rozsdabarna színe van, csak nagyon kevés és gyorsan eltűnő piszkosfehér habbal a tetején. Illata eléggé likőrös, mazsolás, továbbá karamellás és igencsak alkoholos, nagy desszertborokra emlékeztet. Íze hasonló, kissé csípős is az alkoholtól és a fűszerességtől. Nagyon testes, lassan hömpölygő állaga van, lágyan szénsavas és inkább édeskés. Ha az alkohol íze kicsivel a háttérben lenne, jobban ízlene, de így sem rossz. Egy igen komoly sör, ami könnyen a fejünkbe száll, persze ez nem mindig baj.
