Pours a darker amber with a medium fluffy beige foam on top. Spicy fruity caramel malt aroma with notes of honey. Nice sweet rich dark malt flavor, brown sugar, honey, raisins, and german hops. Light and airy body that is also sticky. Covers the 11% pretty well.

Bottle from Turdferguson. Heavy malt and light spices in the aroma. Copper body with a nice head. Full palate. Heavy malt, some more malt, and a little bit of heat after that. Pretty one-dimensional, but nice flavor.

Bottle. The aspect that stands out the most to me from EKU 28 is the aroma of sweet raspberries, apples and strawberries. I found the beer overall to be quite enjoyable. It has an almost after dinner liqour type taste.

Bottle. Poured a deep bronze color with a small white head that didn’t last with no real lacing. Slightly sweet aroma of dark fruit and malt. Flavor of sweet dark fruit; black cherry and raisin underlaid by the malt taste. Very clean palate despite it’s being 11% by volume. I like starkbier and this is a good one.

A nice eisbock. I don’t drink German beers very often and when I do I wonder why. This beer was like a wine. The pours was a thick red with a tan 2 finger head that left quickly. The aroma was wine and malt. The taste was chewy carmel with malt and alcohol. I don’t have much experience with eisbocks but if this is considered a sub par one, I must search out a good one ’cuz this is great.

Pours a very clear amber with little head. Aroma strong with molasses, plum, and malt. Flavor is excellent, with the molasses combining with malt, honey, and caramel to create a really nice sweet but drinkable brew. Palate is nice- not too thick like many beers of this sweetness, but still sticks to the tongue quite nicely. Very nice beer.

Pretty damn good considering the high alcohol percentage. Need to try this one again to write a proper review.
