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.

ONE YEAR OLD. Discovered this beer hiding in a corner of my celler and enjoyed a lovely beer. Smoky aroma and flavor added to a smooth feeling makes me going to Fur retailers buying some more for my cellarcorner.

NYHarvey (2153) - New York, New York, USA - FEB 6, 2007
50 cl bottle courtesy of Papsoe. Aroma is sweet and malty with some organic smelling puppy breath notes that are a cross between steeping grains, chocolate and coffee. A little muted ont he whole and leaning to the sweet side, but decent smelling. The body is a very ruddy brown that is entirely to light colored for a porter. Looks like an amber ale and I have seen darker Barley Wine. Has a diminishing, but well formed, tan white head that is about a pinky thick. <P> Fore is fairly smokey with some light on the tongue sweet malt flavors and none of the promised anise or licorice hints. Seems much more akin to a smoky brown or amber ale than a porter. The smokiness really ramps up as it warms and becomes the dominant feature in a fairly narrow range of flavor. Still for allt he negatives I could see some people really digging this for it’s consistent, but not over the top, smoky flavor.

Bottle. Deep dark brown almost black colour with a nice big creamy well lasting light brown head. Sweet aroma of well roasted malts, liquorice, chocolate and hops. Flavour is fresh, quite sweet with nice roastiness, chocolate, mild liquorice, coffee and bitter hops. Tasty porter!

Rune (4667) - Tromsø, NORWAY - JAN 16, 2007
500ml bottle. Dark brown body topped by a fading brownish head. Great laceworks. Quite sweet aroma of chocolate mixed with coffee hints. Cocoa and dark chocolate flavour supported by hints of roasted grain and a bruch of tart fruits. A bit active carbonation for a porter. Short bitter end. Moderate, but nice mouthfeel. (Copenhagen,12.01.2007).
