Commercial Description:
Danish: Allerede når den hældes op i glasset, fornemmes det med det samme, at Hr. Frederiksen er en herre med både potens og stor personlighed. Begsort som Hr. Frederiksens humor er denne ”Imperial Stout” efter amerikansk forbillede med et tæt og cremet, lysebrunt skum, som efterlader pikante blonder i glasset, efterhånden som det modstræbende lægger sig. Vi indrømmer det gerne – vi er gået amok med maltene i denne øl, hele 8 forskellige har vi brugt, og det er de sorte og brændte, der giver øllet både dets farve og den nærmest ekstreme fylde – dette er nærmest et fudbyrdet måltid på flaske. Også bitterhed leverer de brændte malte sekunderet af amerikansk Centennial humle. Åh jo, Hr. Frederiksen er en oplevelse at byde op til dans, han bør dog nydes langsomt, men så kan han til gengæld også holde en hel aften, hvor man kan varme sig ved hans alkohol og udfordrende charme.
Vi har opkaldt denne øl efter en god ven uden hvis fantastiske støtte og assistance Amager Bryghus ikke var, hvor det er i dag.
Bitterhed: 81 IBU

English: When poured into the glass you will instantly sense that Hr. Frederiksen is a gentleman with both potency and a huge personality. Dark as Hr. Frederiksen’s humour, this imperial stout is inspired by the American imperial stouts with its dense and creamy light brown head that leaves nice lacings in the glass while the head reluctantly dissipates. We are willing to admit that we went crazy with the malts in this beer. A massive 8 different types of malts were used, and it is the dark and heavily roasted ones that give the beer its colour and almost extreme full body - this is almost a meal in a bottle. The bitterness is also delivered by the heavily roasted malts backed up by the American Centennial hops. Oh yes, Hr. Frederiksen is an experience which should be enjoyed slowly, but in return he will last all night warming you with his alcohol and challenging charm.
We have named this beer after a good friend, without whom, Amager Bryghus would not be what it is today.
Bitterness: 81 IBU

Draught at the brewery. Pitch black with a creamy mocca coloured longlasting head. You wont find it any better than this. A beauty! Aroma is roasted malts, lots of coffee and leather. Flavour is a good mix of roastyness, chocolate, coffee, liqorice and mocca. Long liqorice finish. One of my favorites!

Thanks to Dickonsonbeer for sharing this. I’ve been after this one for quite some time. Bottle # 294/400, batch 5 and BB 05 2010. Poured pitch black with a medium sized tan head that left a nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is strong roasted coffee and chocolate. Taste is of roasted coffee, vanilla, chocolate, with a nice creamy smooth finish. Hops are present, but balanced very well with the rest of this incredible Imperial stout. Thanks Paul!!!

Sampled at the RBESG08 grand tasting. Black with a dark beige head. Tar dominated aroma with dark roasted coffee and hops. Medium to heavy bodied and very smooth. Well balanced, long bitter aftertaste.

Bottle 294 from thecheeseman!!! Thanks Dan!! Also shared courtesy of BrianK a few weeks back. Pours a very dark black oily viscous body with a nice long lasting glistening tan almost orange head. Aroma is intense with coffee, roasted barely, chcooalte malts, and evne some fresh hops, but they all work perfectly together- I also get hints of toasted almond and licorice int her eas well. Flavor has a nice cool clean smooth coffee with blends so well with the roast of themalts, lgiht smokiness, tar and leather, and a nice subdued yet noticed hop character in the end. This was so intense, yet so refined and balanced. Freakin awesome impy stout.
