Commercial Description:
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.

500 ml bottle. Dark body with a dense, dark beige head. Aroma is dominated by heavy, dark, roasted malt and just a hint of liquorices, chocolate and coffee. Flavor is complex malt driven, roast and a subdued level of coffee, chocolate and actually pretty bitter. Lovely.

Bottle. Lovely black with a large brown foam. The liquid that came out of the bottle was wonderfully thick. The aroma was intense, large elements of dark, bitter chocolate. Not that much coffee in the aroma as you might think, however a lot of roasted malt and some alcohol. The flavor was wonderful a lot of chocolate, roasted malt and some saltiness. Also some alcohol and licorice. Not too sweet, the thick liquid felt nice in the mouth. Aftertase had a nice bitterness and a taste of walnuts.

Aroma: fresh, WONDERFUL hops. Very potent hop aroma. Lovely malts, oats, wheat, vanilla. Sweetish, caramel.Coconut, cherry. Dark chocolate and nougat. Dark roasted. Coffeelike.
Flavour: Mm. delicious. Very well balanced. It hits you immediately. For it is very bitter, both of hops and dark roasted malts. Very full-bodied. Oats. Slightly sourish. Some sweetness from the malt, but it is practically slaughtered by the massive dry, malt- and hopbitterness. Wonderful.
Appearance: Black with a brown rind. Very thick, beige-brown, frothy, lathery, sticky foam.
Palate: Creamy, oily. Milky. Very nice, but a little fluffier than I’d prefer.

Bottle. Pours black with a small, rocky light brown head, somewhat lasting with fair lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (molasses, toasted grain, chocolate, coffee, average hop (grass), heavy yeast (leather, leaves) with notes of light alcohol, raisin, prune, date, wood, and smoke. Full bodied, oily texture, average carbonation, and a bitter finish. Long duration, light sweetness, moderate acidity, and heavy bitterness.

Very dark black colored brew with a nice coffeebrown head. This flavor is intense. Very roasted and charcoiled flavor. Strong espresso and dark bitter chocolate. When warmed, flavor gets smooth and even a bit silky. Aftertaste is longlasting and rough. Not for the weak.

Bottle from Crown#6, shared at Jordan’s Weinerfest, crowd favorite. Pours pitch black with creamy tan head. Nose has some coffee tones with faint roasted malt and brown sugar notes. Flavor is smooth and creamy with dark chocolate, roasted malt, smoke, leather, very complex and full. I really like this one.
