COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Fur Porter er en overgæret øl af typen Imperial Stout. Mørk, mahognifarvet med tæt nøddebrunt skum, der har en lang holdbarhed og giver fine blonder på glasset. Dejlig duft af røgmalt og engelsk lakrids. Fyldig maltet smag med en ekstra tone af røgmalt og engelsk lakrids, der afrundes i en for øltypen frisk afslutning. Engelsk inpireret porter brygget på fem forskellige malttyper - bl.a. røgmalt, karamelmalt og chokolademalt - samt to humletyper, hvoraf den ene er med til at give øllen et friskt pift. Humlen tilsættes af to omgange.

English: Fur Porter is a top fermented beer of the Imperial Stout style. Dark mahogany color with a nut brown head which has a long durability and leaves nice lacings on the glass. Nice aroma of smoked malt and English licorice. Full malty flavor with an extra note of smoked malt and English licorice which ends in a fresh finish, even for this style. English inspired porter brewed with five different types of malt - smoked, caramel and chocolate malts amongst others - and two types of hops where one of them gives the beer its fresh note. The hops are added in two stages.

50 cL bottle. Pours deep amber to dark brown, clear and with a diminishing tan head. Mild roasted malt aroma. Flavour is roasted, caramel and a little chocolate malt. But there is also a distinct smoke note. Nice roasted and light smoked finish mixed with a mild acidic to bitter note.

330. Thanks, Maria! Great stuff. Pours deep dark black, nearly opaque, with a thick, moussy gray head. Sweet chocolately, anise-laden nose. Creamy medium body with firm carb and plenty of flavor: chocolate, roast, and anise all show up on the attack and persist through the mid-palate. Clean, sweetish finish. Lovely stuff.
