Commercial Description:
Danish: Kære børn, læn jer tilbage for nu skal vi fortælle jer en hemmelighed. Ved I hvor julemanden kommer fra? Nemlig, han kommer fra Amager! Ikke Nordpolen, ikke Lapland eller Grønland, julemanden kommer her fra Amagerland! Til daglig hedder han Kurt og er gartnerimedhjælper ude på Tømmerupvej. Han har noget af en tyk mave, som han selv blot betegner som et sjældent voldsomt eksempel på overkarbonering. Uden for sæsonen græsser Kurts rensdyr ude på fælleden, hvor de løbende bliver malket og mælken brugt i en eller anden juleost, der vist sælges sådan lidt under bordet. Men altså, en dag kom Kurt Julemand forbi bryggeriet og stillede os en opgave. Kurt er vild med nisseøl, bortset fra, at der altså mangler lidt spræl i dem, som han siger. Vi ved godt, at for Kurt er spræl lig med procenter. Så han bad os brygge en nisseøl med spræl. Og det er altså den du sidder med i hånden lige nu, verdens første Imperial Nisseøl. Den er brygget til julemanden og til alle jer børn og barnlige sjæle, som stadig tror på ham og på det gode øl. Rigtig glædelig jul!
Amager Julebryg 2009 er af type en Imperial Nisseøl på 8% eller måske en American eller English Strong Ale, whatever. Den er det rene maltparadis med masser af Münchner-, chocolade- og mørk karamelmalt, og så rigeligt med brunt sukker og rørsukker til den søde tand. Gæren er en diskret en af slagsen, mens humlen er britisk Fuggles, som ikke efterlader mere end 15 IBU. Til gengæld lod vi krydderierne helt og aldeles forblive på Amagerhylden - så INGEN krydderier tilsat! Nyd den til nissegrød og alle andre af julens retter.

Bottle 50 cl. large thick creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Dark mahogany color. Aroma of candies, yeast, caramel, sweet malty notes, mild Christmas like spice over this as well. Mild roasted bitterness comes to mind with drinking this. Medium bodied with a soft carbonation and light warming texture. Heavy sweetness balanced by a hint of bitterness. Light warming sweet candies spicy finish.

Bottle, bought @ Ølbutikken, Cph.
[rating 5,800]
Pours a wonderful, deep ruby red with a small, creamy, beige head. Aroma is heavy roasted, cinnamon, caramel, fruity hops. A touch of yeasty cardboard. Medium carbonation, fair rather light mouthfeel and good dryness. Flavour is sweet, roasted, chocolate. Fine hoppiness balancing the heavy sweetness well. Lightly warming in the finish. Fine.

Bottle. Dark brown with medium brown head. Aroma very malty, rye bread, "hvidtøl", spices is there cinnamon added ?. Taste sweet malty a little more alcohol showing up than in the normal danish hvidtøl. You could easily get to drinking this one like a session beer, but it´s very strong, so it would be no good idea. An interesting beer.

(Bottled) Slightly hazy dark amber with a small head. Aroma of strawberry and ice cream, dark fruit, and some alcohol. Very berryish flavor with some sweetness and harsh bitterness, well-showing alcohol, and some vegetables. Medium body with soft but foamy carbonation. I really can’t see why they had to make this beer, as it offers nothing new and nothing very pleasant.
