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.

At first I thought "Nice color, aroma not my favorite but not bad". The longer I drank it the worse it got. I’ve had beers with higher alcohol content which tasted much better than this. I am not a fan of bitter beers in general and this was no exception.

Pours almost like the color of ice tea. Head quickly dissipates. Very watery mouthfeel. I mean like water . I reckoned this beer would be more velvety. Obvious taste of alcohol. Lingers after you swallow and warms your mouth. NICE!! Sweet, but dominated by alcohol.

Pour is a dark orange with a white head Aroma is lots of caramel and brown sugar. Lots of brown sugar in the flavor so much so it takes over the flavor. overall its ok. try an drink it on an empty belly.,as it is very heavy.

Bottle, pre-Rita festivities. Pours a beautiful golden brown, with glorious lacing. Aroma is alcohol, molasses, raisin, and toffee. Flavor is a sweet ass-kicking of alcohol, sugar, toffee, and cotton candy. Wonderfully coating palate soothes the tongue. Great beer.

Bottle. Sweet plum, brown sugar aroma initially that changes to a sour peach as it warms. Brown-orange-red color with small disappearing head. Sweet plum flavor initially again in the flavor that turn sour for a moment before fading into an astringent alcohol flavor in the finish. The astringency is more typical of the bock style - probably one of the most representative of this style.

nice fruity-sweet aroma, beautiful deep copper colour, and a thick but shortlasting head. creamy, medium heavy body, a bit hot but not too hot tasting, considering the 11% alcohol level, spicy, and sweet with a slight spiced bitterness to the finish. a pretty good, but not great brew, perhaps something to help warm you up sitting by a fire in the winter.

Copper colored beer pours thick with a cream colored head that quickly recedes due to the high alcohol content. Aroma is sweet malt and a whiff of alcohol. Flavor is sweet, thick malt, and a big alcohol hit. The flavor is pretty good, but it does not even try to hide the booze, and that is not entirely a bad thing. Big bold malt and caramel flavor; sweet, thick, and chewy. Interesting, enjoyable, and good, but not something I could drink more than one or two of.
