COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Som enhver der har mødt ham ved, så er salgschefen her på stedet lidt af en fartdjævel, som forvandler sig til en filipensbefængt provinsteenager, så snart han sætter sig bag et rat. Det kan være sådan lidt småproblematisk, når han sidder i vores varevogn med lasten fuld af gode Amager-øl. Men til hans ære er denne øl blevet kaldt ”Burnout”, for hans notoriske trang til at give den gas og brænde noget gummi af – den lille møghvalp…
Og brændt er ”Burnout” saftsuseme - eller måske snarere røget. Traditionelt er røgøl enten af tysk Bamberg-stil eller af britisk karakter, hvor det er tørverøget malt, der dominerer. Som altid gør vi intet halvt på Amager Bryghus, så vi har både anvendt 44% tysk røgmalt og 44% britisk røgmalt – så vi er ikke i tvivl om, at dette nok er noget af det mest røgede, der nogensinde er fremstillet herhjemme. Burnout bør derfor kun nydes, hvis du har dobbelt udstødning på dytten eller skorsten i hjemmet!

Bottled. Brownish coloured with a red gleam. Brownish fluffy head. Aroma of smoke, meaty bacon and light roast. Flavour is balanced smoky, herbal, baconish, has light chocolatenotes and loads of roast as well. Very nice and balanced and a lot resemblance to the Bamberg smoke. Medium to full bodied. Ends on a smoked roasty note. Very nice beer.

Not a shock that this is a smoked beer, but after reading all the dangers on the back of the lable, it is actually not that bad smoked. Good beer because it has more to offer than smoke, perfect to burnt grilled food which it was tested.

sebletitje (4011) - Enghien, BELGIUM - NOV 11, 2011
50cl bottle, batch#195, BB 08/2012 bought at Alvinne beershop. Couleur brune claire, col beige. Arôme donne bien le ton, énormément de malt fumé laissant un profile cendre, malt caramel en retrait. Palais, malt grillé, et torréfié avec bien au devant le malt fumé. Le tout est sec, aspect de cendre et tourbe, grains concassés, bière semble au delà de l’alcool indiqué, très agréable et un fini réchauffant qui garde toujours ce profile sublime du malt fumé. J’adore. Une très belle bière fumée, j’aimerai bien voir la même version en plus léger.

Clear very dark reddish brown with a big beige head. Aroma is sweet, malty, caramel and lots of peated smoke. Flavor is quite sweet and moderate bitter. Dry and moderate bitter finish. I can almost feel the smoke coming out of my nose. 040811

Basically a good smoked beer, but I prefer Schlenkerla. Nonetheless worth a try.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 16, 2011
Bottled. A deep red beer with a huge light tan head. The aroma has notes of smoke, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of smoke, slightly peated and slightly beech wood, combined with caramel and malt, leading to a dry smokey finish.

Benzai (2298) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - JUL 12, 2011
Dark brown colored beer. Smell little malts but mostly smoke. Taste a little sour and off course smokey. Not my style I think, but decent.

Bottle. Creamy off-white excellent fully lasting head. Amber colour. Moderate malty and very ugly baconsmoked aroma. Moderate bitter flavor. Not as bad smoked as feared. Some nutty notes. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.
