Commercial Description:
Editor's note: second batch of this was released August 9th 2008.

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

Bottled. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt, as well as light notes of coffee, and chocolate. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of roasted malt, and coffee that grows stronger towards the end, on a good strong alcoholic background - You don’t taste it - it is just felt. Nice.

Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Very black, brownish head. Tarry nose. Medium sweet and full bodied with thick mouthfeel. Citric hops simmer in tar, to be enjoyed with a spoon. Lots of roasty flavours. Vast in character, possibly well sweet. There are much less good Imperial Stouts on the top-50...

(Bottle 50 cl) Completely black and opaque beer with a tall, dense, inch thick, light brown head that leaves a pretty lacework. This really is one goodlooking beer. The aroma is full of fat, burned malts - even a bit vinous. Extremely full-bodied, this pours thick and tar-like. Extremely solid notes of roasted malt with burned touches, some fruit and a discreet, underlying sweetness. Ends fairly bitter. A grand Impy indeed. 010407 and 070907

Draught. Black coloured with a huge creamy light brown head. Roasted aroma of coffee and chocolate. Roasted flavour of coffee, liquorice and hops. Warming alcoholic, roasted and hoppy finish.
