Among the undergrowth of the new Danish breweries Brown Ale was one of the most popular beers. And we understand here in Amager. Brown Ales are affected both nice to look at and pleasant to drink. In typical fashion Amager Brewery, we have given ourselves to pep the classic brown ale recipe up a bit of both to look deeply into malt and hop sacks pots. We ended up brewing in Munich, amber, chocolate and caramel malts and spice with English Challenger hops for bitterness and American Willamette and Cascade, so there is something nice to taste and sniff. And then we just gave the beer a splash of brown sugar. The result is a beer with classic brown ale characteristics of nøddetoner, a warm and deep orange-brown color and a slight edge of bitter chocolate. But because it is from Amager, it has just a little more of everything, why we think it deserves a dignified name like "Amager Imperial Brown Ale". We hope you will enjoy it.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Storm. Clear, warm orangy brown with a beige head. Aroma of fruit and burned caramel. Rather solid body with plenty of roasted malt and some sweet, burned caramel. Quite some hop bitterness. 290308

Ruby brown with a small but lasting off-white head. Chocolate aroma with a somewhat strange fruitiness, possibly the hops that I am picking up. Quite sweet chocolate flavour but with lots of bitterness in the finish. Alcohol is showing. I’m a little surprised by an Amager beer that didn’t blow me away :)

Bottled. Dark ruby/brown, small creamy beige head. Aroma of fusels, apricot and toffee. Sweet with compact malty body. Medium-full bodied with lots of chocolate sauce and a salty bitterish finish where alcohol plays a part. Would probably prefer a more toned down version.

50 cl bottle@vinensverden,Odense. Pours muddy brown with a nice creamy head. Lots of roasted malts , caramel & bread! Soft & medium body - a bit thin perhaps. Hints of chocolate. I must not compare this to nøgne ø: Imperial brown, but I cant help it! Not as good in any way!

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown to black with tan head, clearly filtered, as a consequence thereof: no yeast at the bottom. Aroma is dominantly malty - with a mild roasted note and with a solid caramel element and a subdued hoppy note. Flavour is classic brown ale - yet solid on the malt and hops without being overly so. Ends with a nice bitterness and smooth chocolate malty note.
