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.

unibaren (151) - 8000 Århus C, DENMARK - MAR 25, 2006
Smokey and roasted aroma (almost like a rauchbier). Pitch-black with light-brown head. Smokey and roasted flavour. Light body for a beer this flavoursome with a slight metallic mouth feel and some faint liquorice in the aftertaste. An ok. beer but far from the best porter I have had.

sunevdj (2306) - Copenhagen OE, DENMARK - FEB 16, 2006
UPDATED: MAY 26, 2007 Pours a dark red/brown with a beige head. Smells slightly smoked. Nice flavors of roasted malts. Aromas of smoke and a bit of leather. Slightly coffeish and a bit sour. Soft carbonation. Nice creamy texture. Smoked finish with a hint of band-aid.

maeib (6398) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - JAN 20, 2006
Bottle - trade with chris_o. A black beer with a nice tan coloured head, but that disappears quite quickly. The aroma is quite smoky and roasty with a tiny of amount of dark berry fruit. The taste has nice roasted malts and a dry coffee/chocolate feel to it. I felt it had a nice fullish body, and really enjoyed it. Interestingly the BBE is tomorrow, so this is matured the maximum the brewer would recommend.

harrisoni (9608) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - JAN 4, 2006
Bottle brought back from Denmark by a friend, thanks Mette. Very dark brown/black beer with lasting dark beige head. Smokey chocolate and coffee aroma. Really lovely porter. Could do with some dark fruit. Choc though is really nice and bitter. Good grainy mouthfeel

yngwie (8718) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - JAN 2, 2006
UPDATED: JUL 9, 2007 Bottled. Dark brown, next to black, yet with a reddish hue, and topped by a nice brown head. Roasted aroma with some bonfire-sour smoke, chocolate and a little fruityness. The flavor much the same, with a nice roasted bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite warming, smooth mouthfeel. Maybe it has improved since they started brewing it, I don’t know, but I lifted my rating a bit. It could use more body, and even though the aroma is nice, it is a bit anonymous, but a good beer it is. Old rating 5-4-5-4-13-3.1. (Rerated 070709) (051213)

Bottle 50 cl @ 14C. Weak aroma compared to Limfjordsporter. Okay flavour of roasted malts and liquerice. Low carbonation.

chriso (7062) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - NOV 26, 2005
500ml bottle. Almost black, with a reddish tinge. No head to speak of. Chocolate and soy sauce aroma, with phenolic edges. On the palate there’s chicory coffee, licorice, powdery chocolate and bags of roasty malt. Quite bitter, but there’s an underlying sweetness too. The mouthfeel is maybe a bit thin. Decent bite on the finish. A commendable effort.

Black colour with an off white medium head. Spicy flavour with hints of licorice and anice. Only a medium body, but lots of taste.
