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”.

Guiness-like pour, creamy brown color, extremely thick creamy tan head. Roasty smokey chocolate aroma. Hmm... flavor has a lactic thing to the background and finish that makes it seem authentic. Lingering dark bitter chocolate on the tongue. Really good porter.

Courtesy of Papsoe. <!-- P --> Smoky, ashy aroma is a mix of BBQ and cigarette butts. Roasty malts beneath that, but I don’t really get any coffee, chocolate, raisin, prune or licorice. Body is deep black with a bubbly but fluffy two finger thick mocha head. Fore is a bit watery. Not thin just not flavorful. Bitter and burnt malts follow and bring some welcome flavor that includes esspresso and baker’s chocolate. very charred and burnt like firewood-in the finish. Different, but not something I’m enamored with.

bottle via trade with radiomgb - Thanks Jeff! - Pours black with a creamy tan head that stays fairly well and leaves some lace. Aroam of roasted malt, some smoke, with coffee and chocolate background. Flavor is quite rich with notes of bakers chocolate, coffee, some smoke, and a touch of caramel. Full bodied.. Seemed more of a stout than a porter but creamy on the mouthfeel. Not much carbonation. Quite a drinkable brew.

Bottle courtesy of BierKonig. Dark brown to near black. Foamy brown head. Nose is nutty and sweet with light coffee notes, bittersweet chocolate and sweet malts. taste is sweet and malty with more light coffee notes, nutty flavors, chocolate and roasty malts. Rich full body. Creamy and smooth with mild carbonation feel. Finishes with more caramel, light coffee, nutty notes and chocolate.

Bottle: Dark brown/Black colour, with a thin brown head. Aroma of coffee, salt, tar and wood. Flavor is almost the same her, and thats nice, medium body, and a long bitter/tar finish. Nice Baltic porter this one!

To mark the salt of the earth on the first of May I chose a black porter topped with a delicate brownish foam leaving pretty lacings on the glass. Smoky mouthfeel containing coffee, anise and chocolate flavours. Smooth. Malty flatness to finish a decent Danish brew.
