COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Måske fornemmer du det allerede, når kapslen fjernes og næsen sættes til flasken – denne ”Stout” dufter anderledes, end hvad du er vant til. Vi har nemlig tørhumlet den sent i processen med de ædle amerikanske humler Nugget, Centennial og Cascade, som giver de blomsteragtige toner, der lægger sig oven på de karakteristiske Stout-kendetegn af brændt malt og giver både lethed og friskhed. I glasset fremstår Sundby Stout kulsort, mens skumkronen er tæt, lysebrun og næsten cappuccinoagtigt cremet, mens tungen fornemmer både maltsødme og antydninger af bitter, mørk chokolade og engelsk lakrids. Sødmen får dog kvalificeret modspil i den hårdt ristede malt og den flækkede, umaltede og ristede byg, der begge er med til at give øllet dets brændte præg. Sundby Stout er en klassisk ”Stout”, som alligevel godt tør være anderledes og udfordrende.

English: Maybe you feel it already, when the cap is removed and you put your nose to the bottle - this " Stout " smells different than what you are accustomed to. We have dry hopped this stout in the late stages of fermentation using the American noble varieties of Nugget , Centennial and Cascade, which allow the floral tones that make this a characteristic Stout - flavours of roasted malt give both lightness and freshness.
The glass appears Sundby Stout black , while the head is tight, light brown and almost cappuccino creamy, the tongue senses both malt sweetness, hints of bitter dark chocolate and English liquorice. Sweetness, however, cleverly balances the hard roasted malt and the split , umalted and roasted barley , which both help to give beer its roasted flavor. Sundby Stout is a classic " Stout ", which nonetheless dares to be different and challenge convention.
Ingredients: Water, barley malt , hops, and yeast

wlajwl (2905) - Quad Cities, Iowa, USA - MAY 5, 2011
Dark malt and a bit of chocolate in the aroma with a very dark brown appearance. The flavor is chocolate/cocoa and very malty. Extremely good in flavor, this is among the best stouts out there.

Bottle 500ml from Purvis. Great stout, nicely hopped. Aromas of roast, caramel, chocolate, and liquorice. Taste has a sweet start, with bitterness taking over for a long finish. Palate is almost creamy, with a medium body. Dark brown, with a frothy head.

Cybercat (2453) - Georgia, USA - NOV 3, 2010
Aroma is rich, smoky, oily and a little woody with a firm overtone of molasses and a hint of chocolate. It pours a deep opaque sable, like any good stout, with a fairly thick dark tan head, and leaves substantial lacing. Flavor is smoky with tones of molasses, unsweet chocolate and charred wood. Texture is fairly smooth with a nice fizz, leaving a smoky and subtly tingly finish.

Dazz3 (1251) - Hällefors, SWEDEN - FEB 4, 2011
10/10 i mörket. Luktar väldigt "maltigt" men ändå friskt. Väldigt frisk för att vara en stout, rund och fin bitter mörk smak.

humlelala (691) - DENMARK - JUL 26, 2011
(50 cl bottle @ Café 8-tallet) Pours black with rich toffee head that laces the glass heavily. The aroma is pleasantly floral on a dark background of sweet, toasted malts. Full-bodied, creamy on the palate with medium carbonation and a long, astringent finish. The taste is pleasantly bittersweet with burnt and hoppy notes. Girlfriend says: "Delicately smoked."

corby112 (2214) - philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 12, 2011
From notes: Pours pitch black and completely opaque with a 1.5 finger frothy beige head. Decent retention, slowly fading into a lasting ring that leaves small spots of lacing behind. Sweet chocolate malt aroma with hints of caramel, roasted coffee bean, burnt toast and surprisingly, earthy piny hops. Chewy medium body with a silky, slightly viscous chocolate malt flavor. Only faintly roasted with more of a creamy feel. Hints if caramel, toffee and faint toast. The maltiness is very nicely balanced by a bitter earthy hop presence that lingers throughout into a ery dry finish. Complex, flavorful and pretty quaffable. I’d rexommend this to anyone who is a fan of hoppy stouts.

heemer77 (5011) - Urbandale, Iowa, USA - JUN 1, 2009
Black colored body with a light tan head. The nose is light milk chocolate with some coffee roast. There is also some light hints of plum. The taste is lightly roasted with some coffee and cola flavors. There is also some raw soybean and milk chocolate in the finish. The body is lightly carbonated and that fits perfectly for this style. Oh man, this is very tasty and delicious with it’s roast character. My only complaint is that it is a little pricey.

drpimento (1936) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - APR 10, 2010
Pretty good beer. Poured aggressively to get a medium sized thick foamy creamy fine tan head and a little lace. Color is an opaque dark brown with mahoganey highlights. Aroma is cocoa, coffee, roasty, malty, fresh baked black bread, licqourice. Flavor’s the same with a little added salt and a hint of wet cardboard. Body is creamy and soft. Finish is the flavor plus has a floral component which adds a lot of intrigue. Finish length is medium. Very drinkable. Session.

Geiserich (2561) - Vienna, AUSTRIA - OCT 24, 2009
Aroma is very complex and fine. Notes of dark chocolate, roasted malt, wood barrels and a hint of smoke. Dark brown, nearly black color, foamy brownish head. Flavor is full of roasted malt, notes of coffee, wood barrels and hops. Very dry bitter, roasty end. Perfect.
