EKU 28

Brewed by Kulmbacher Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Eisbock
Kulmbach, Germany

Serve in Dimpled mug, Snifter, Stein

The color was a golden with orange hues. The aroma was sweet, candy, fermented fruit, and aged. The flavor was alcohol, sweet, aged, and citris. The palate was medium bodied. The finish was a little warm.

I don’t speak German. So it’s a good thing this bronze heady fluid poured out of this brown bottle was an excellent eisenbock and not some type of poison. I don’t know if the Kulmbacher Brewery sells beer for export to English speaking nations, but I’m glad I grabbed a bottle of this. I read with amusment the last reviewer who used this strong beer to assist him in returning to sleep. I"m sure an 11% beer can do that...but then again, so can Robotussin. To me, you dont’ START your driniking off with a beer like this. You have to make sure the ’pump is primed’. Once you get tastebuds ready, this goes down very well and is a much more pleasent experiance.

small bottle, dark golden amber, no head really. intense aroma of alcohol mostly syringa, a little clean toffee too. flavor is intense malty on a sweet and rich palate with a short sweet aftertaste,

Malty with a touch of apple. Sweetness was not cloying as the commercial description says. Poured clear gold, quite pretty. Very lightly carbonated (bad bottle?) with almost no head....the picture on ratebeer definitely isn’t what I got. I’ve got 2 more and will update if I find them to be different. Outside of the lack of carbonation, pretty good. Taste was quite nice.

Rich amber/cider color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of sweet malt, fruit, toffee, & some alcohol; Flavor of toasted sweet malt, some yeast, caramel, dark fruit (notably plums), and spice; Warm alcohol at the finish; Nicely balanced; Overall, one of those brews you either love or hate.

pours ruby red with large beige head that quickly dissipates completely after a minute with no lacing. ruby color looks very appealing. very crisp looking. sweet caramel/ butterscotch aroma. very sweet. you can tell its strong, but i wouldn’t think its 11% just based on the taste. reminds me a bit of a barleywine. long finish. Definitely one you have for the right occassion and only have one!

Sörspecialista, Budapest. Tükrös, világos rozsdabarna színe van, csak nagyon kevés és gyorsan eltűnő piszkosfehér habbal a tetején. Illata eléggé likőrös, mazsolás, továbbá karamellás és igencsak alkoholos, nagy desszertborokra emlékeztet. Íze hasonló, kissé csípős is az alkoholtól és a fűszerességtől. Nagyon testes, lassan hömpölygő állaga van, lágyan szénsavas és inkább édeskés. Ha az alkohol íze kicsivel a háttérben lenne, jobban ízlene, de így sem rossz. Egy igen komoly sör, ami könnyen a fejünkbe száll, persze ez nem mindig baj.

era la cerveza que cuando vivia en Italia me encontraba con amigos para tomarla porque era la mas fuerte en comercio.una eisbock malta y caramelo con bastante sensacion alchoolica.
