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.

douglas88 (3479) - Salt Lake City, Utah, USA - JUN 22, 2008
Bottle thanks to footbalm. Pours a clear and dark amber with a thin white head. The aroma is very nice; tons of fruit, alcohol, rich malt and syrup. The taste is very smooth and nice; a rich fruit aspect, sweet candy, a toasted malt, and overall a pervasive warmth that I enjoyed. Very nice.

armando629 (1938) - Budapest, HUNGARY - MAY 31, 2008
Amber color and a small but delisicious head. Very fruity(raisins?) and liqueric aroma. The taste is liquric too, alcoholic, but it doesn’t hurt my palate. Flavour of raisins, honey, some tart and dry aftertaste. Syrupy beer warms me up...Hard one.

Amber. Fast, orangehead. Aroma: Sweet, caramel, malty. Flavor: Same with fruit, syrupy, alcahol kick. Sweet finish. This beer has an attitude from the aroma, flavor and a good butt kicking if you don’t show it respect. Good job!

Bottle. This is a sipping beer. The picture shows a brandy sniffer. This is the perfect way to drink this beer. Wonderful fruity aroma. Sweet taste, raisins, toffee. Good stuff.

Leighton (3578) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUN 9, 2010
Bottle at Jimmy’s no. 43 during the Lovullo Bock Tasting Session. Pours ruby-amber with a small, white head. Heavy caramel malt aroma, with some pilsner. Super sweet flavor, loads of caramel and sugar. Sticky and sweet in the finish. Body is full and carbonation is average. Potent beer.

DrSamPHD (65) - Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA - OCT 20, 2008
Pours a transparent amber-red, appearance is very appealing. Fruity aroma, cherry, yeast and sweet malts coming through. Strong alcoholic sweetness in the taste with just a bit of bitterness in the end. I will be drinking this one slowly. Good beer.

33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, Tampere.
Pours clear copper colour with no head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, malts, mild grass and ripe fruits, mild plum at the end. Surprisingly easy to drink.
