Best Beer in The World - Ølfabrikken Porter


Ølfabrikken Porter is the best beer in the world.

There is no beer I know of that tastes as good or costs so little.
This costs 8 DKK from the shop next to my office, a wonderful bargin (considering a bottle of water costs 10DKK).

I wish all breweries were as good as Ølfabrikken.

Here is the description from the company (google translated from Danish):

Ølfabrikken Porter is a dark and strong porter, which is roasted without being burnt or bitter.
In the glass Ølfabrikken Porter is viscous and black with a creamy cafe au lait-colored foam. The aroma is intense with dried fruit, smoke and wine notes, leading to a sharp taste of coffee and bitter, dark chocolate, complemented by a large caramel flavor from brown sugar. There is added smoke malt, and it makes the beer decidedly smoky, and adds depth and complexity.
Ølfabrikken Porter was in 2006 awarded the year ølnyhed of the Danish Ølentusiaster by voting among its 11,000 members. That year was chosen on Ratebeer.com as one of 11 best beers in the world, out of more than 50,000 rated and thus the best porter in the world. The significant residual sweetness and fruit flavor makes this beer an ideal companion to desserts, which included chocolate, prunes and roasted figs, if served slightly chilled, that is about 8-10 degrees.
