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.
Bitterness: 81 IBU

Bottle courtesy of Gunhaver. Pours black with a one finger tan head that leaves good lacing. Aroma is strait up solvent alcohol, roasted malt, and some coffee. Taste is the same as aroma with tons of hot alcohol. Medium thin mouthfeel with a moderate to strong amount of bitterness and very hot alcohol. Not very good.

Courtesy of Geiger. Pours black with brownish head. Aroma is roasted coffee with heavy malt presence, taste is thick, smooth to drink. The beer does seem like it is much stronger than the 10.5% listed.

Draught (EBF2008)
Tangy hoppy aroma. Decent burnt taste. Long lasting tingly finish. Well balanced despite its power. Tasty and interesting. Surprised it’s 10.5%!
2nd batch rerate:
500ml bottle (Olutkellari, Helsinki) - sip, shared by some olutpoas dudes - thanks!
Coffee beans coated in chocolate. Covers 10.5% very well. Similar score.

Draught Good, but short-lived greige head over jet-black beer. Cold coffee, stale one, even. Some fusel alcohols traceable. Sharpish coffeetaste, with some stout acidity, (quite) some alcohol, and some faraway yeasty esters. Soya sauce? Very well-bodied, smooth to velvety, long aftertaste. Good, if unrevolutionary Imperial Stout.

Huge creamy head and black beer. The aroma has notes of coffee, chocolate and a bit of hops. Flavor of coffee, chocolate balanced. Bitter finish.

Cask @ EBF 2008. Almost opague. Creamy head. Creamy aroma with a hint of licorice. Way more licorice in the flavor. Salty and malty, but well matured. No sharp edges whatsoever.
