Limfjordsporter, eller i folkemunde "Øllets Gentleman", er en næsten sort undergæret porter med en cremet lysebrun skumtop. Smagen er kompleks og domineret af lakrids, røg, ristet byg og maltsødme, og flot afstemt med en markant bitterhed fra humlen.

Thisted Bryghus købte ved lukningen af Urban Bryggeriet, Aalborg i 1986 rettighederne til navnet og den karakteristiske blå/orange etiket. I 1989 kom Limfjordsporteren så på markedet fra Thisted Bryghus, men tidligere brygmester Peter Klemensen fortsatte med at udvikle på opskriften indtil 1997, hvor han ikke mente, at den kunne forbedres yderligere.

Sidenhen er denne øl blevet et ikon i ølverdenen, og det er et af de relativt få produkter fra Thisted Bryghus, der findes udenfor landets grænser - senest i Sverige.

De fleste nyder Limfjordsporter alene uden mad, men prøv den også til kraftige simreretter eller den avancerede som ledsager til østers.

Taste is slightly dry, dark malts, hay, raw licorice, roasted grain, shed, paper, coffee, burnt caramel, grass, hints of smoke. Medium bitterness, slightly grassy mouthfeel. Very nice, even though I think I liked it even more a few years ago.

330 ml bottle into snifter, bottled on 1/7/2008. Pours hazy fairly pitch black color with brown edges, with a 1 finger dense tan head with goof retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big raisin, plum, dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted malt, coffee, toast, dark bread, molasses, light smoke, light licorice, herbal, and roasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good complexity of dark/roasted malt, light licorice, and yeast ester notes; with good strength. Taste of big dark chocolate, cocoa, toast, dark bread, roasted malt, coffee, raisin, molasses, light smoke, light licorice, herbal, and roasted earthiness. Slight roasted bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, toast, dark bread, roasted malt, coffee, molasses, light smoke, light licorice, and roasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice complexity and balance of dark/roasted malt flavors, light licorice, and yeast ester flavors; with great robustness and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a very creamy and lightly slick/chalky mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is an excellent Baltic porter! All around great complexity and balance of dark/roasted malt, licorice, and yeast ester flavors; and very smooth to sip on. A very enjoyable offering.
