Amager Bryghus Drei von Dänen - Denmark

This is one very tasty beer, a special project by Amager Bryghus to produce a traditional Nordic smoked porter with a twist.

Brewed with roasted  (& smoked) malts and matured in old Cognac barrels this has a lovely porter aroma but with an undeniable Cognac presence. It tastes quite malty with a sweet tinge (it is possible some sweet adjunct may have been used) and a slight smoky flavour, you can definitely taste the Cognac. It is quite a potent beer at 9.8% ABV.

I really enjoyed this Porter but would struggle with more than one bottle in a sitting.
