Amager Bryghus, Hr. Frederiksen
Described as a stout, but with a bunch of centennial hops lobbed in to the boil giving it 60+ IBUs. Apparently. Stout/BIPA from Amager. Burnt malts, wet/used coffee grounds. Hops = citrus + fresh dark fruits (as opposed to the dried versions you might detect in an impy tout). Creamy on the palate, but a weird, slightly sharp fizzing on the tongue afterwards. I meant to get the imperial version of this (Mr. Frederiksen) but I messed up my order and now it's out of stock. Bugger. 3 x photographs here 'cos I was quite proud of that last one. Cheers.
Aamger Bryghus, Sinners Series: Gluttony
After our anniversary trip to Copenhagen (didn't visit the Amager brewery, but then it was an anniverary trip wasn't it), I had a bit of a greed to the Danish beers in. Luckily for me, I managed to snaffle a few of the remaining stock that Beers Of Europe had. This DIPA from Amager was orange/lemon/lime on the nose, grapefruit and bitter orange in the gob along with (my notes say) "clean mediterranean forest and yeast". (Make of that what you will #craftwanker.) Very light, couldn't be described as thick (as you might expect from a DIPA). No trace of booze whatsoever. At 9.7%, you could get blind drunk off this very easily indeed.
Amager Bryghus, Sinners Series: Envy
For a birthday treat last year, my wife accompanied me to the Craft Beer Co in Brixton. As I drank some overpriced BIPA from Evil Twin, she drank an equally overpriced half of Envy from Amager, which she loved. I had a little sip: big orange Fanta, fresh and morish. Quite wonderful. The bottle didn't hit as hard and there was more grass/pine in it. Good body, decent mouthfeel, pleasing but shortlived bitterness. Reminded me of a stronger version of Fyne's Hurricane Jack.
