Beer Here Fat Cat
Danish: Fra Castros Havanna til 3F’s hovedkvarter har de røde Fat Cats melet deres egen kage. Til kage går det bedst med maltet og ikke for bitter øl med en frugtig aroma.
Da Fat Cat skulle brygges ledte jeg efter en karakteristisk humle, der kunne spille op imod den karamelagtige maltprofil og da Nelson Sauvin var en af de eneste humletyper på det tidspunkt der kunne fås frisk fra 2008 høsten var valget ikke svært efter jeg i 2006 på Helsinki Beerfestival havde smagt en øl humlet 100% med denne humle. Malten der er brugt er en blanding af britisk Maris Otter og tysk münchenermalt sammen med karamelmalt, afskallet chokolademalt og rå byg fra Sjællands fede muld.
At Fat Cat samtidig holder beherskede 4,7% alkohol gør at man med fordel kan nyde et par pints uden at gå helt kold.

330ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours dark amber with a thin off-white head. Aromas are nutty, woody, earthy, low hop fruitiness, perhaps a touch of sherbet. Taste is light sweet, more nuttiness. Light body, bit disappointing to be honest.
Tap at Fermentoren Aarhus. Pours reddish amber with a big, frothy, off white head. Aroma has very fruity, fresh, exotic hops, berries like cranberry and maybe even strawberry. Nelson Sauvin really shines through here! A subtle caramel malt as well. Taste is nice and bitter hoppy, thought this is carried by the same berry-like fruityness and the sweet caramel malts. Taste doesn’t fully live up to the aroma. The body is slightly watery. The carbonation is medium-high. A nice, sessionable beer for sure!
Tap@Brewdog Bar. Mörkt kopparfärgad vätska. Karamellig doft med röda bär och tallbarr. Torr, lätt smak. Vilket kan ursäktas av den låga alkoholstyrkan. På slutet framträder en tydlig smak av päronskal. Inte kul.
På fat @ Brew Dog Bar. Rödbrun färg. Doftar plommon. Smsk av vete och en fadd smak. Ligher kvar som unken eftersmak.
Bottle. Reddish amber Body with white head. Aroma is malts with hints of citrus fruits. Taste is malts with hints of fruits and caramel. Thin body. Aftertaste is malty with some bitterness. nice summerbeer. As I was missing the hop aromas, I think the bottle was a little bit to old.
From a bottle. Pours a very cloudy amber brown, malty aroma, thin white head, big hop flavours with a citrus tang. I like it a lot.
Very sweet and rich fruit flavor and aroma. How I want my beer. Fine and exquisite bitterness that fills the mouth well and for a long while. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.
Tap. Pours bit hazy cobber, creamy off-white head. Aroma is floral, citrus, malty caramel. Taste is light to medium sweet, malty and citrusy. Bit watery. Finish is bread and marmalade with pleasant bitterness.
Draught. Hazy reddish pour with white head. Aroma is fresh with an edge. Quite thin body with malty base. High carbonation.
Draught at Lord Nelson
Deep amber with a creamy head.
Hoppy, flowery aroma.
Resin and citrus in the flavour; butter lemon-zest.
Medium to high bitterness. Some chlorine-notes.
Tap@Black Swan, CPH - amber pour with good off-white head. Sweet caramel malty, toffee, nice spicy hops, pine needles, marmalade. Lovely brew.
On tap at Fermentoren. Dominated by bread, caramel, citrus and tropical fruits.
On tap. Pours a dark copper with moderate retentive foamy head. Aromas bready malts and light pine. Flavours of toasted malts, some red berry jam, and piney hops. Smooth and spmewhat creamy with a soft bitter finish.
On tap @ Cardinal. Slightly unclear dark golden body with a stable, medium sized off-white head. Nice aroma of citric fruit together with ripe fruit and a hint of pine. Flavor is more fruity than malty with the same combination of fresh citric fruit and some ripe fruit. Relatively bitter. Medium body and OK aftertaste with fruit and bitterness. Very easy to drink, quite quaffable but not so much more than a nice session ale. I also have a little suspicion that the tap line is not in an optimal condition here.
Hazy pale amber. Not much head. Aroma of dark marmelade, dried fruit and cocktail berries marinated in feline urine. Taste of forest berries and raspberries with medium bitterness. Also some sweet and medium dark malt.
on tap at bryggens olbaren in copenhagen. amber with a puffy head; loads of pine and grapefruit in the aroma; simple, solid flavours - grapefruit and caramel with creeping bitterness
Pours a hazy orange colour. A bit sticky aroma of lemon and pine. Taste is quite bitter, but not too much. It has lemon, pine and some tiny bit of ginger in the end, which makes a very good mix. A bit soapy mouthfeel, good body for the alcohol level. Indeed a very good beer.
In bottle. Lots of pine and grapefruit with white peach and hints of onion. Ends creamy. Good beer.
Dunkel gyllen farve med lite lyst skum. Lukt av sitrusfrukter og malt. Smak av malt, sitrusfrukter og karamell. Ølutsalg.
Fin duft av citrusfrukter. Grumset rødbrun farge. Lite skum, litt langs kant. Fin frisk smak av citrusfrukter. Lett drukket.
Bottle @ Dean’s Birthday tasting, courtesy of deanso. Pours a clear amber beer with almost no head on top. Fruity aroma, malty and some red fruits in there as well. Fairly bittersweet flavor, touch of fruit and a quite watery mouthfeel. Decent brew, nothing more, nothing less.
Hazy amber with a white, lasting, frothy, beige head. Smells of ripe fruit, mango, with pepper. Medium oily body. Tastes of sweet malt, caramel, dried fruit, with a earthy, hoppy dry finish. Decent earthy beer.
Bottle at Dean’s Birthday Tasting, August 2013. Poured a cloudy reddish amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is rich malt and fruit. The flavour is weak bitter with some liqourice fruit and a hint of dry pepper on the generally watery palate. Needs some work I feel.
Bottle. Pours hazy copper. Aroma is dark fruits, caramel, cereal, earthy and skunky. Taste is medium sweet. Quite malty. Medium body with soft carbonation.

Thin creamy white head. Hazy amber pour. Malty hoppy aftertaste. Nice brew.
03.08.2013, 0,5l bottle @ home:
Nice creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is weird grassy, caramel malts, hops, pine needles, rubber, grass, leafs, toffee, weeds. Taste is slightly harsh grassy, caramel malts, pine needles, wet leafs, grass, soil, rubber, bark, cardboard. Longlasting bitterness. Boring.
Heavy hoppy, nice. Floral hops. Amber coloured and hazy. Has a white head, diminishing. Flavor starts sweet and malty, then heavy hoppy, spicy, herbal.
Fra fad på Bryggens Ølbar i solskinnet en juli eftermiddag, og et "welcome relief" etter Amgares Batch 500. Lett, elegant og samtidig smaksrik. Ert riktig så godt pøseøl, uten at jeg henfalt til fristelsen - der var tross alt en cykle som ventet.
nice fruit hoppy aroma,orange, hazy, off white foam, light sweetness, medium bitterness, medium body, soft carbonation, sweet fruit hoppy finish.
