This was a mixed bag in that it was unique. Ultimately, EKU 28 was nearly unfinishable. The acoholic notes were a little much; but, the cloying sweetness is what really did me in. I think it definately would work as a dessert beer in small measure and paired with chocolate.

The whiskey of beers; goes down hot from all the alcohol. Malt is deep caramel with light dashes of oak, and vanilla. Very much a sipping brew. Nice stuff, for real men only.

Bottle bought in Belgium. Pours orange, no head. Syrupy but not really cloying, alcohol is well hidden. Nice.

A had a few of these last summer and I don’t remember what happened the rest of the night! Seriously, pleasant aroma, very sweet going down and aftertaste.

Overall, not a bad beer. I tried The Ayinger the night before though and this one isn’t in the same class. Nice head, with decent lacing that faded quickly. Overall, I’d drink it again if it was available but not something I would go out of my way for.

A very pretty orange color with a fizzy beige head that quickly disappears. Lies still in the glass. A very sweet nose, cotton candy, port wine, wood. Wow, you know this is going to be exploding with flavor. Bam, malts all over the place, specialized malts....crystal for sure. Alcohol isn't a bit shy, it's right there like a siren tempting you to sail on to the rocky shore. Make no mistake, this is a dangerous beer, lip-smackingly sweet but packs a whollop of a punch. Why is Anchor Old Foghorn in a 7 oz bottle and this in a 12? This is THE ski lodge beer, a winter warmer that can be, no....should be shared by two people. It is like sipping brandy, definately a dessert beer. Call me a Masochist, but I like it!
