Commercial Description:
Editor's note: second batch of this was released August 9th 2008.

Danish: Allerede når den hældes op i glasset, fornemmes det med det samme, at Hr. Frederiksen er en herre med både potens og stor personlighed. Begsort som Hr. Frederiksens humor er denne ”Imperial Stout” efter amerikansk forbillede med et tæt og cremet, lysebrunt skum, som efterlader pikante blonder i glasset, efterhånden som det modstræbende lægger sig. Vi indrømmer det gerne – vi er gået amok med maltene i denne øl, hele 8 forskellige har vi brugt, og det er de sorte og brændte, der giver øllet både dets farve og den nærmest ekstreme fylde – dette er nærmest et fudbyrdet måltid på flaske. Også bitterhed leverer de brændte malte sekunderet af amerikansk Centennial humle. Åh jo, Hr. Frederiksen er en oplevelse at byde op til dans, han bør dog nydes langsomt, men så kan han til gengæld også holde en hel aften, hvor man kan varme sig ved hans alkohol og udfordrende charme.
Vi har opkaldt denne øl efter en god ven uden hvis fantastiske støtte og assistance Amager Bryghus ikke var, hvor det er i dag.
Bitterhed: 81 IBU

English: When poured into the glass you will instantly sense that Hr. Frederiksen is a gentleman with both potency and a huge personality. Dark as Hr. Frederiksen's humour, this imperial stout is inspired by the American imperial stouts with its dense and creamy light brown head that leaves nice lacings in the glass while the head reluctantly dissipates. We are willing to admit that we went crazy with the malts in this beer. A massive 8 different types of malts were used, and it is the dark and heavily roasted ones that give the beer its colour and almost extreme full body - this is almost a meal in a bottle. The bitterness is also delivered by the heavily roasted malts backed up by the American Centennial hops. Oh yes, Hr. Frederiksen is an experience which should be enjoyed slowly, but in return he will last all night warming you with his alcohol and challenging charm.
We have named this beer after a good friend, without whom, Amager Bryghus would not be what it is today.
Bitterness: 81 IBU

Bottle. Thanks to Marsiblursi. Black colour with a brown head. Aroma: Roasted and malty, but also kind of fresh and a bit hoppy. Taste: roastiness, chocolate, salmiak, cream, tar, hops, a bit of alcohol. Full bodied.

Tap at Plan B. Colour is very dark, almost completely black with a chocolate brown head. Aroma is malts, coffee, chocolate. Palate is thick and creamy. Flavor is bitter but sweet, with clear notes of coffee, chocolate, roasts, malts. Excellent.

Colour is a deep black. the head is medium and has a nice light brown corlour. The nose is deep with malt and chocolate aromas The taste is everything the nose promises with strong taste of roasted and bitter and certain chocolate smoothness witch ends in a dry hopped aftertaste. Bravo!!!!

Shared by StFun at the Pre-Sex gathering - thanks, Josh!!! BAM, what a big nose on this oily black pour. Sometimes, you just want an imperial stout that’s more or less a face-ripper. This is more or less what you get with this beer. Slick and thick mouthfeel, with a lingering chalky palate. Roasts and bitter flavors everywhere, with some creamy chocolate smoothness easing the delivery. As intense as it is, it’s not harsh. Very well done.

Shared by someone nice at the sexual chocolate release. Pours a dark black that allows more light than i would have expected, and a head that is much darker than the beer lets on. Interesting pour. The nose is roasty, chocolate, coffee, some sweetness, a phenolic aspect to it as well, some alcohol comes through. Flavor is earthy, some grain bitterness, chocolate and coffee roast, warming, mild waxy bitterness. Warming and bitter on the palate.

Bottle at the Sexual Chocolate release party. One of the better Imperial stouts of the evening! Pitch black pour with a thick brown head and spotty lace. Big roasted malt nose. Creamy mouth-feel. Nutty up-front with long roasty bittersweet finish
