2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 NosirIwont (1535) - Aalborg Vestby, DENMARK - JUL 19, 2011
Bottle. Pours a clear, deep golden/amber with an off-white/yellowish head. Sweet aroma with fruity and grainy notes and an alcoholic overtone. A wee bit cloying. Flavour is fat, sweet, alcoholic, fruity and grainy. Full-bodied. Sweet, almost sugary finish with a tart note and a mild bitterness thrown in. Lingering alcoholic and grainy notes. Overall okay, but too grainy for my liking. 19.07.11.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 villy83 (262) - Sausalito, California, USA - JUL 12, 2011
33cl. bottle at Cervecería Seny, in Madrid. It pours a clear dark amber liquid with a low white head that dissipates completely and leaves no lacing. The aroma is very malty, with hints of caramel and nuts, and a little syrup. It tastes likewise, with a high sweetness and a low bitterness. The alcohol is perfectly blended (11 ABV!) and is hard to notice. It has lively but pleasant carbonation and a medium body, ending dry with a sweet malty aftertaste. Ok presentation for a pleasant and tasty eisbock.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Kristall-König (1552) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - MAY 16, 2011
UPDATED: MAY 17, 2011 EKU 28, dessen Farbe schön satt ins Kupferne geht. Richtig eingeschenkt, macht auch der Schaum nicht so schnell die Biege. Malzige Geruchspartikel. Daneben noch eine gewisse Fruchtigkeit nach Grapefruit oder Pampelmuse. Schwer definierbar. Das Geschmacksempfinden ist vorerst schwer und ölig auf der Zunge. Danach breitet sich eine weiche Fruchtigkeit nach Pflaumen aus. Lang anhaltender, fast scharfer alkoholischer Abgang.
Das EKU 28 ist in der Tat ein schwerer Brocken, der mit dem normalen Bier nicht verglichen werden kann. Deshalb, und aus persönlicher Vorliebe von mir eine recht gute Bewertung.

A disappointment. Body had a clear copper color to it head was off-white and about a half an inch thick. While the retention was nice this beer had no lace to it. Aroma seemed to be all malts some caramel notes and some fruit notes. No real indication of the alcohol in both aroma and flavor. Taste was primarily sweet mostly of caramel and maybe something like brown sugar. There was a slight oak/vanilla hint to it in the finish that was very mild but kept the beer from being cloyingly sweet.
watery mouth feel.
