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.

flemmingwillum (687) - Copenhagen S, DENMARK - DEC 19, 2006
A completely red beer with a little head that dissapears quicklier than you have the time to say "strong beer". Very concentrated aroma of malts and a little tobacco. The flavor is very concentrated by malts too, but has also obvious notes of strawberries and blackcurrants. The aftertaste is hopped and quite alcoholic, but compared to the ABV, the alcohol is hidden really well. Great palate; really sturdy beer that feels exceptionally creamy and soft in the mouth.

Starnge reddish-brown color with a good head that quickly disappeared. It has a very sweet aftertaste, but I can’t really put my finger on what it taste like - possibly honey. Not bad

hellomynameis (867) - Mayer, Minnesota, USA - DEC 12, 2006
This was a very strange dark orange/red colour. It poured a tall head but it soon collapsed on itself. It almost seems like a thick cider. Sweet, sweet aroma with some caramel and toffee. The flavour is very sweet and sticking with some honey like flavours, caramel, and a drying alcohol like finish.

rickgordon (3758) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - NOV 27, 2006
[Bottle] Dark orange colour. Prickly mouthfeel, loads of Co2. Thick almondy flavour profile with lots of sugar sensed - and alcohol. And glue.

steview (903) - San Francisco, California, USA - NOV 27, 2006
picked this old bottle up at the local liquor store near my base / sweet, bready, caramel and nuts aroma; deadish appearance, honey-brown color, slightly thickish tan head, decent lacing; sweet, caramel, vinous aftertaste, dulls as it ends; a little sweet, could be cloying, goes down smooth with not much alcohol presence!

Bockyhorsey (2588) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - NOV 26, 2006
Bottle. Aroma of sweetness and alcohol pierce the nose. Caramel aroma also present along with some wet corn aroma in the finish. Dark orange body with not much of a head. Flavor was sweet caramel till middle of beer. A sticky sweet leather flavor appears with some wet corn. Sweet sticky licorice aftertaste on the palate. Need some water for palate rinse. Decent brew.

SHIG (2530) - Osan, SOUTH KOREA - NOV 22, 2006
Poured a brownish red amber with soft white head. Sweet fruit like aroma with some alcohol tint. Sweet caramel or honey flavor was subsided by an alcohol burnt malt flavor.
