Pours a hazy amber colour with a medium sized creamy off white head. Aromas of dry dark fruits, brown bread, fruit cake, caramel and nuts. Taste has more dry dark fruits, brown bread, fruit cake, caramel and nuts with some sweet honey but well balanced with a light earthy hop bitterness. Subtle warming alcohol also present. Alcohol extremely well hidden for 11% abv. Full body, fairly low carbonation and smooth thick sticky mouthfeel. Excellent Doppelbock one of the best I have tried.

bottiglia 33 cl, schiuma beige fine media persistenza, colore ambrato limpido, al naso è intensa inebriante il tipico aroma di miele di castagno prugne secche nocciole tostate frutta matura caramello, in bocca è esplosiva intensa liquorosa frutta matura malto uva passa zucchero di canna miele frutta secca, corpo strutturato, carbonazione piatta, oily, molto dolce ma non stucchevole, amaro moderato. Appena aperta mi ha riportato a 30 anni fa quando da ragazzino andavo con il Garelli nei pub. Il suo tipico aroma il suo gusto intenso, estrema esagerata. Non è facile da bere ma … troppi ricordi….. EKU 28, un mito per noi degli anni ‘90. Si, sono di parte. c. Cantina della birra 11.03.22

Ovo čudo ima 11% alk. Ali nije tako gadno kao što bi se moglo očekivati od jednog tako jakog piva. Nije kao neke piva gdje se samo alkohol osjeti.

Adding in my 300 Beers To Try ticks because I want to see how they impact my stats and some of them I will never see again. Will however re-rate them when practical.

Bottle from Beers Of Europe. Clear amber body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of honey and resin. Flavour of raisin and prune. Medium to full body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. Rich and boozy but lacks the depth and special quality of other beers I’ve had at this ABV.

Pours a decent frothy head, that disappears fast. Very malty, a bit vergetable-like. Thick, sweet, malty flavor with lots of warming alcohol. A peppery fruitiness (raisin and plums). Long, malty alcoholic finish.

Bottle pours out amber topped with a sand head. Nose is big sweet rich malts honey and a touch of hops. Taste is more of the nice sweet grain bread malts honey toffee.
