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”.

The aroma is very toasted with licorice, sea weed, smoke, and coffee. The appearance is dark brown with a tan head. The flavor is like the aroma but with a burnt rubber finish. The palate is thick. This isn’t low quality at all, I am just not a fan.

the aroma reminds of band-aid with a decent amount of dark roasted malts. the palate is very full with heavy on the malty. the bitterness is very potent yet it slightly remains in the background. has its qualities.

Pours very dark brown with dark tan head. Roasted malt, smoke, and chocolate aromas. Toasted malt, smoke, coffee and anise flavors. Medium to full body with moderate carbonation. Very nice.

Just about black in color with a small/medium lasting light brown head. Roast, light smoke, some dry chocolate, molasses, and light spice in the aroma. A good amount of roasted malts, some molasses, and smoke in the taste. Solid malt backbone with some licorice hints. Bought this one on a whim and I am glad I did- a very solid strong porter.

[Bottle, thanks Guerde!] Pours dark brown with a dark tan head. Aroma is mostly smoke and deeply roasted malt, with light milk chocolate, Taste has alcohol, smoke along with char, and anise. Good mouthfeel, incredibly long mouthfeel. A very solid beer that is bordering on too deeply roasted, but manages to pull it off.

(bottle) Pours dark brown with a thin tan head that leaves a little lacing. Smells of smoked bacon, salt, wood, roasted malt, burnt graham cracker, and tart berry skin. Tastes of chocolate, light smoke, and salt, which is then signaled by a spike of roasted malt that rounds out to a nice and smoky finish which lingers very well. Warming reveals just a touch of dark fruits. Eventually after the smokiness subsides, a bit of bittersweet chocolate emerges upon exhalation on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium and carbonation is as well. An interesting take on a baltic porter.
