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. Thick black colour with a nice light brown creamy head. Aroma of smoked wood and tar indeed, along with well roasted malts and bitter-chcocolate. Flavour is bitter,smoky, thick tar, liquorice, chocolate, coffee, roasted malts. Aftertaste is long with bitter, smoky, roasty with some chocolate. Great brew indeed!

A dense brown head tops of the jet black beer. The aroma is heavy on chocolate, coffe and roasted grains, but it’s still quite clean. The taste is of bitter chocolate, burned wood and birchwood smoke. The finish is dry and slight bitter with the chocolate flavour lingering for quite a bit.after subsequent sips the smoke gets more up front. The beer is thick and fills the mouth perfectly. A very nice beer. Supposedly the brewer has been developing the it for quite some years. So no wonder it turns out this great!

Pour is deep dark brownish black with a dense light brown head...smell is smokey and roasty with some cocoa and light notes of coffee...but moreso smoke than anything else...mouthfeel is nice and velvety...taste is roasty cocoa and strongly smoked...I have to guess this is a smoke beer more than a porter....wonderful smoke flavors...the 3 best smoke beers I have ever had in my life have been Danish...that is pretty awesome...if this isn’t a smoked beer, then I got a bad bottle that I loved.

My rating is coloured by the fact, that I´m not so fund of porter. Anyway a dark brown beer with medium brown head. Aroma of malt and licorice. Taste very dominating of licorice, but a decent beer.

Øl fået til julefrokost som nummer 12+13, så bedømmelsen er formentlig helt skæv. Meget brændt stout, som er helt sort, med enormt flot skum. Kraftig i smagen.

33cl bottle via trade with henrikb, thank you sir. 27.04.07--I am assuming the best enjoyed by date. Didn’t realize the bottle was green. Pours a deep brown wiith a one finger brown/tan head. Aroma is fairly smoky with some anise, followed by some roasty malts and a vinous and raisiny character. There is also a tinge of saltiness and acidity. Flavor is the same with the smoke dominating. I did get a little vanilla in one of the swallows, though I didn’t notice anise any more. I would say this medium bodied, though it seems a bit watery. I know this doesn’t really make sense, but this is how I feel. Carbonation is low and fairly sharp.

Black colored, little beige head. Aroma is good with "rauchbier-tones": strong smoke and ham dominate, sweetness, mild alcohol and hints of licorice also there. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is milder with still good smoke and some roasted licorice. Coffee and chocolate in aftertaste.
