COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Lige nu taler alle om finanskrisen, og sidste år var det humlekrisen. På Amager Bryghus siger vi: ”fuck alle de kriser og lad os få noget seriøst øl!” Med Rated XX 2009 vil vi endnu engang bevise, at trods rygterne om det modsatte, så er der er masser af humle at få derude, hvis man som brygger bare vil ha’ den. Denne øl er en hyldest til øllets måske mest ædle ingrediens, og den er en hyldest til alle de ’hopheads’, der forstår at nyde den. Igen er vi gået amok og har tømt humlerummet på bryggeriet. Amager Rated XX 2009 rummer en helt unik sammensætning af intet mindre end 23 humlesorter: Centennial, Hallertau Mittelfrüh, Brewers Gold, Crystal, Simcoe, Perle, Mt. Hood, Hersbrücker, Challenger, Fuggles, Liberty, Styrian Goldings, Columbus, Chinook, Amarillo, Bramling Cross, East Kent Goldings, Willamette, Palisade, Saaz, First Gold, Pacific Gem og Northern Brewer. Yep, vi indrømmer det blankt, det er et humle-orgie, som vil skille fårene fra bukkene blandt ølelskere – også blandt de som ellers troede, at deres smagsløg sagtens kunne kapere en voldsom Dobbelt IPA. Når det kommer til bitterheden, så har vi opgivet at regne den ud, for det er ganske ikke muligt. Men vi er ret sikre på, at Amager Rated XX 2009 er en af verdens bitreste øl. God fornøjelse – hvis ellers du tør!
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
High creamy and long lasting off-white head. Thick looking dark hazy orange body. Lemon, oranges, grapefruit aroma with nutty notes and well the hops is pretty dominant. Grapefruit pine hops bitterness is all what the flavor is. Strong and good. Too bad that the alcohol is also very much present. Even the high hops bitterness does not manage do hide id. Low carbonation. Long bitter aftertaste.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: MAR 17, 2009 Bottle. Huge thanks to Pinball for sharing. Hazy deep amber brown colour with a huge creamy excellent fully lasting white head leaving a good lacing. The aroma is bustling with heavy bitter hops giving it a very nice ripe fruity, pine , spruce and citrus aroma with toasty caramel. Great filling mouthfeel. The flavour gets more and more bitter and dry, very dry, lots of ripe fruits, pine, citrus, grape, spruce and caramel along with a long lasting dry very bitter finish. Totally dried out my mouth. Great experimental Imp IPA though not one I could drink in larger quantities

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: MAR 15, 2009 50 cL bottle. Pours hazy and almost amber to deep orange with a creamy, dense and light orange head. Aroma is distinct dense hoppy yet also slight breadish malty with a light sweetness. Flavour has the same: overload of hops, all the elements you know: citrus, grapefruit, peaches, etc - yet for this new version a more pronounced sweet and breadish malt base. Full bodied and with a very wellhidden alcohol content.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle 50 cl. Large creamy light brown like head that really lasted. Good display of lacework. Cloudy dark amber color with particles in flow. Heavy flower, citrus, oily, chewy grapefruit, yeast, toasted malt, leather, also dusty floral notes. Very full bodied with an average carbonation and dry texture. Heavy bitter flavor with good counter sweetness. Dry lingering oily hoppy finish. Yum yum
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle 50 cl. Pours a hazy and opaque amber golden with a dense and creamy beige head. Rather intense aroma of burned caramel and fat, fat oily hoppiness. Quite full-bodied with a solid and sweet malt base combined with the usual light Amager ashiness - is it the minerals in the tap water? But overwhelmingly dominated by a massive and slightly hash bitterness from the extreme hop addition. Fuck this a hophead’s dream. 050209
