Commercial Description:
Kom fra Thisted Bryghus i 1989 efter syv års eksperimenter. Navnet stammer fra Urban-bryggeriet i Aalborg, hvor brygmesteren fra Thisted Bryghus i slutningen af 70érne ”slog sine folder”. Her fik han første gang ”smag” for provinslivet og denne særlige øltype, som ofte i Thisted-regi betegnes som øllets gentleman. Navnet købtes efter Urban-bryggeriets lukning i 1986. Limfjords-Porteren ”kredsede” brygmesteren om frem til 1997, hvorefter han ikke mente længere at kunne forbedre produktet. Den rette blanding af maltene var opnået. Af usædvanlige ingredienser skal nævnes røgmalt og engelsk lakrids, der tilsammen giver en smagsmæssig balance på et lidt højere niveau end det sædvanligvis ses. Brygmesterens personlige favorit og ”hjertebarn”.

Bottle: Impenetrable black! As is often the case with dark beers this was a little thin aroma-wise. A slight hollow roasriness, but that was all. However, in the mouth velvety roast flavours play over a quiet caramel note. There’s some peppery alcohol and grainyness here too, but really it’s all about the simple harmonies of the caramel and the roast. Just lovely!

33cl bottle, with thanks to sunevdj. Pours a dark brown with a large choppy dark tan head, nice lacing. Aroma is dominated by smoke, like venison jerky, with some charred/burnt malt, light chocolate, and saltiness(?). Flavor is more of the same, although more mild and seems to work only slightly better together than expected. An interesting and mildly unique beer, although not one I’d seek out again. Still, glad for the chance to try. Baltic porter?

Very heavy. Tasteful, some sweetness on the palate and some smokiness. Yo have to like this kind of beer to be enjoyed.

Limfjords Porter delivers a characteristically smoked hint along with chocolate and (light burned) coffee taste; very tasteful! A rather inexpensive beer (No Offense)! In its plain look it might fool someone not to buy it... but DO try it! Enjoy - one of a kind! Very, very good on tap!

Courtesy boboski. Black/dark brown. 1cm cramy light brown head. Smoked deli meat, burnt malt, dark chocolate, whole grains, subtle whole coffee beans, and some cookie like malt. Finish is roast, smoke, and a ton of dark chocolate. Medium/full body, smooth. Lower carbonation works well in this one. Excellent porter.
