Commercial Description:
Danish: Måske fornemmer du det allerede, når kapslen fjernes og næsen sættes til flasken – denne ”Stout” dufter anderledes, end hvad du er vant til. Vi har nemlig tørhumlet den sent i processen med de ædle amerikanske humler Nugget, Centennial og Cascade, som giver de blomsteragtige toner, der lægger sig oven på de karakteristiske Stout-kendetegn af brændt malt og giver både lethed og friskhed. I glasset fremstår Sundby Stout kulsort, mens skumkronen er tæt, lysebrun og næsten cappuccinoagtigt cremet, mens tungen fornemmer både maltsødme og antydninger af bitter, mørk chokolade og engelsk lakrids. Sødmen får dog kvalificeret modspil i den hårdt ristede malt og den flækkede, umaltede og ristede byg, der begge er med til at give øllet dets brændte præg. Sundby Stout er en klassisk ”Stout”, som alligevel godt tør være anderledes og udfordrende.

English: Sundby Stout is a classic ”Stout” and yet it dares to be different and challenging. As soon as the beer is opened and you smell it, you sense that this stout smells differently than what you would expect. Late in the brewing process we have added the noble, American dried hops such as Nugget, Centennial, and Cascade, which provide flower-like notes that lay on top of the typical stout characteristics of burned malt that adds lightness and freshness to the beer. Sundby Stout appears dark as the night, while the head is dense, light brown – almost cappuccino-like creamy, as your tongue sense both malt sweetness and hints of bitter, dark chocolate and English liquorice. The sweetness, however, is rightfully challenged from the hard roasted malt and the split, un-malted and roasted barley, which both contribute to the “burned” touch of our stout.

50 cL bottle, celebration beer after 14 hours of work as elected voter in 2007. Pours dark brown to black with a dense chocolate brown head. Roasted malt with a smooth chocolate note and a mild liqourice edge blending nicely in with a lovely peach fruity hops aroma. Flavour is dry hoppy with peach fruit and a thick chocolate and roasted malt smoothness. Ends quite hoppy bitter and with an edge from the roasted malt. Quite nice.

[Sampled at the Halloween-eve.] Another superbeer at a super-eve. A very well-tasty stout with a high drinkabilty. A broadsider with easynotes of popular hops welldosed, but not too much. Cascade in a Stout, why not! Usual notes of coffeechocs, licorice, hops, roast and smoothness!

Bottled (BBE 08/2008, batch #34)
Black opaque color, big creamy brownish head, lace. Roasted malty, coffee aroma with American hops. Quite full-bodied, although drinkable. Nicely roasted, not too aggressively, but enough. Overall soft mouthfeel and good tarry aftertaste with hints of salted licorice, a bit sticky mouthfeel also. May be similar to few Guinness FES versions.
