COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Det er efterhånden næppe nogen hemmelighed, at Hr. Frederiksen er signaturøllen for Amager Bryghus, og vi indrømmer gerne, at netop denne store, sorte øl ligger vore hjerter nært. Ligeledes er det næppe nogen hemmelighed, at vi er særdeles glade for Stranahan whiskey, fra det lille destilleri i Denver, Colorado. Med Hr. Frederiksen Colorado Whiskey Edition kombinerer vi hele to gode ting i én flaske, og vi håber at du – kære ølelsker – vil nyde den frydefulde kombination af en rig og potent Imperial Stout fra Amagers smukke, bølgende, grønne landskaber, der efter 26 måneder på et Stranahan whiskeyfad er rundet af den let sødmefuld whiskey fra Colorados vilde bjerge.
Hr. Frederiksen Colorado Whiskey Edition er ikke en øl, du kaster i svælget i overdrevne mængder henne på din lokale bæverdink. Det er en nydeøl - gerne ophældt i et stort pokalglas – til stille kontemplative aftenstunder foran pejsevideoen, hvor du i ro og mag kan fundere over livets store spørgsmål som: er Bjarne Corydon mon i virkeligheden en mere sexet finansminister end Claus Hjort? Og kan jeg ikke godt med rimelighed forlange 50% rabat på min souvlaki, næste gang jeg ferierer på Kreta?
Jo, der er så mange store spørgsmål i livet. Og til at fordøje dem kan du passende nyde denne store øl, som er tæmmet potens uden nogensinde at ende som cuckold.

Smagenoter:
Sort som arvesynden er også denne udgave af Hr. Frederiksen, når den hældes i glasset. Det lysebrune skum er først groft med store bobler, men sætter sig snart på overfladen - cremet og delikat. De søde whiskeytoner afslører sig allerede i duften, som er blød og rig på vanille – tænk brun lakridskonfekt! Hr. Frederiksen har stadig masser af hårdtristet sort malt, men bitterheden er rundet af whiskeyens sødme til noget nær en perfekt balance, mens de mange måneder på fad tillige tilfører øllet en rustik kant. Alkoholen varmer behageligt i finishen, varmer uden at brænde.

English: Barrel aged for 26 months on a Stranahans Colorado Whiskey barrel.

Sample at Borefts Beer Festival 2011. Pours a pitch black beer with a weak beige head. The aroma is malt, roasted, alcohol and whisky. The flavor follows the nose with additional dried fruit. The palate is dry with alcoholwarmth. Overall a good beer.

VsXsV (464) - Linköping, SWEDEN - MAY 19, 2012
Bottle. Opaque, black liquid with small to medium tan head. Aroma of wood, booze, whiskey, smoke, chocolate, medicinal alcohol, licorice and ash. A bit too boozy. Taste is light to medium sweet with medium bitterness and lots of whiskey notes and ash. You really gotta like whiskey too enjoy this one. Full bodied with nice carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. OK impy but I like it better non barrel aged.

jesperhammer (1518) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - MAY 7, 2012
04-MAY-2012, bottle @home, from the brewery. Black with lasting brown head that laces. Roasted, sweet whiskey, and alcohol. Taste the same with loads of whiskey. Quite sweet but also an astringent note - from malts? Low carbonation, sweet, rough and full body. Best of the bunch.

faroeviking (8805) - HAITI - APR 17, 2012
Botella in Esbjerg with a good friend along the tunes of Frank Sinatra on the record player! Pitch black, small light brownish ehad. Sweet aroma, roasted malt, chocolate. Mouthfeel, ok filling. Sweet flæavour, roasted malt, chocolate, some alcohol, wood, soy, liqourice. Not as good as I suspected and not worth the price of that small bottle.........

Pinball (8561) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - APR 10, 2012
bottle from the local aldi NOT. pitch dark, smooth brown head. strong roasted malty aroma, loads of whiskey and wood, sweet licorice, vanilla. powerful aroma, balanced, complex but tilted a little towards the sweet end. flavor is a bit dissapointing after the aroma. woody notes, faint tart or sourish dried fruity notes from the wood, roasted malts, bitterness is not that high. Re-checked the bottle. this is not the wine version. If you like slightly sourish-from-the-wood imp stouts you’ll like this bottle, however, i think Mr. Frederiksen was better before he got into this whiskey barrel. That said I’m very happy amager did it, cause it’s always great fun to taste new combinations. The very long aging can be tasted, gives the beer a cellary mouldy woody touch - after some time I sort of liked this - acquired taste...
