It is hardly a secret that we at the Amager Brewery have a deep rooted love for Imperial Stouts - the noblest of all beers. In fact, we are constantly in the process of developing new variations of this fine beverage, this variation has eight malts and three hops. We are particularly proud to present what we feel is the king of hops: Zeus.
Amager Imperial Stout is a beer as black as mortal sin , crowned with the densest and most creamy light brown head. The coffee and chocolate accents are very distinct, but they come exclusively from the malt, while the aroma is rich with vanilla.
Amager Imperial Stout is in all respects a fierce beer for the more demanding and experienced beer drinkers who are not afraid to challenge their senses.
Ingredients: Water, barley malt, wheat malt, oats, brown sugar, hops and yeast

Bottle sample @ 2nd RBBSG, August 11th 2012. Brune foncée, col épais café au lait. Arôme malté grillé, note de tourbe et cendre voire un léger bouquet de malt fumé. Palais, malt caramel/toffee restant assez sec accompagné d’un beau pétillant, garde ce côté malt fumé qui est discret. Le houblon reste en retrait laissant peu de place à l’amertume, fine douceur de vanille et sucre brun.

11/VIII/2012 50cl bottle @ RBBSG - BB: VI/13 - batch 150 (2012-922) Thanks to secretsanta for sharing the bottle!
Very dark brown to black beer, small creamy beige to brown head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: mocha, coffee, sweet touch, brown sugar, caramel, somewhat spicy. MF: quite some carbon, medium to full body. Taste: lots of mocha, coffee, very bitter hops, bit of caramel, sugary. Aftertaste: bitter hops, lots of coffee, pretty bitter. Not my style of stout, but ok.

Opaque black stout, Sweetish nose, smells a little oaky but it isn’t oaked! Soft and dry palate. Rich dark malt, smooth with a repressed minerally hop bitterness. Lingering bitter aftertaste. Bitter but light Impy but I could not drink loads of this.

Bottle @ home. Pitch black, short brown head, lasting lacing. Aroma of a big roasted imperial stout, chocolat, some coffee, biscuity malt, earthy hop. Great taste, thick body. Good balance between sweet crystal malts and hop bitterness, quite clean. Reminds me a lot of classic american impies like the yeti. Lovely stuff.

500ml bottle. Pours a deep brown-black, with a patchy, rusty beige head. Chocolate and graham cracker aroma, Smooth and creamy, but rich, with some residual chewy chocolate covered hops bitterness in the finish. The big, burnt coffee and vanilla-chocolate tones really come out as it reaches cellar temperature and above. World Class, a completely enjoyable experience. Faint licorice. Sublime, but full of flavor and depth. Awesome. Insane amount of yeast in the bottom of the bottle.

Bottle from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours very dark brown/black with a rather fizzy dark tan head. Aromas of anise, chocolate and dark burnt malt. Med body. Flavor is like the aroma, except the chocolate is very fresh and strong. Some coffee and vanilla. It is quite flavorful.
