Seasonal: Special
Description:
Danish: Vintage 2 er en Baltic Porter. Den er sortere end sort med espressolignende skum. Aromaen er præget af tjære og tovværk fra den tørverøgede, skotske malt, der er blevet fragtet fra Skotland specielt til brug for Vintage 2. Øllet fadlagres som det eneste nutidige øl i J.C. Jacobsens originale kælder fra 1847 dybt nede i Valby Bakke. Tapningen af af Vintage 2 fandt sted på præcis den dag, hvor brygmesterern vurderede, at øllets udvikling kulminerede.
English: Once again Carlsberg’s Jacobsen Brew House in Copenhagen Denmark raises the bar for brewing, by launching the second brew in its Vintage trilogy. Vintage No. 2 is sold for the price of DKK 2009 (more than 250 Euro or $345) a bottle, and only 600 bottles of this exclusive beer are brewed. Vintage No. 2 is one of the world’s most expensive beers, and is created together with the controversial Chilean born artist Marco Evaristti. Together they are uncompromising in their way to setting new standards. Vintage No. 1 was launched a year ago and created interest all over the world. “With the Vintage trilogy we want to push the boundaries for what a beer can do, and to challenge the luxury wine segment in the gourmet restaurant market by utilising our innovation and brewing capabilities”, says Morten Ibsen, Brewmaster at Jacobsen, who in cooperation with four other brewmasters has developed the Vintage No. 2. Vintage No. 2 has, as the only contemporary beer, been matured in J.C. Jacobsen’s original crypt-like cellar from 1847 where it has been stored in French oak casks for 100 days. The beer has a jet-black colour and espresso-like foam. And it reveals flavours of vanilla and cocoa/mocha. The aroma is distinct with hints of tar and ropes, which come from the peat-smoked, Scottish malt, which has been transported from Scotland solely for this brew. Vintage No. 2 is perfect pairing for oysters, shellfish, Parma ham and cheese, and if you crave for something sweet, chocolate and crème brûlée also goes with the beer.
