Med vores lette sommerøl, Summer Fusion, har vi villet bevise, at man sagtens kan lave en øl, som er lav i alkohol men rig på smag. Som navnet antyder, er vores øl en ægte fusionsøl, hvor vi med arme og ben har stjålet inspiration fra flere forskellige stilarter – og fra flere lande. Gæren, vi har brugt, er en klassisk tysk pilsnergær, som vi meget mod dens vilje har gæret ved 22 grader celsius – en teknik man kender fra den amerikanske øltype ”California Common” eller ”Steam Beer”. På den måde kombinerer vi den sprøde friskhed fra lagerøl med en portion frugtig friskhed, som man oplever i overgæret øl. Malten, vi bruger, er ikke noget ganske almindeligt valg, vi har grebet sækken med engelsk Mild Ale malt, som giver øllet sin mørkere, ristede karakter, mens et par håndfulde tysk karamelmalt giver lidt sødme og rundhed. Og så ville det jo ikke være en rigtig Amager-øl, hvis ikke vi havde yderst generøse med humlen. Her faldt vores valg på de klassiske amerikanske aromahumler Centennial, Chinook og Amarillo – I ved, sådan nogen der masserer smagsløgene. Og så efterlader disse humler den mest fornøjelige, citrusagtige friskhed. Er De forvirret? Jamen, det er der slet ingen grund til. Summer Fusion er svaret til de mange, der i årevis har spurgt: ”Hvornår får vi en amerikansk-engelsk tysk over-undergæret pilsner-ale, der smager af en masse uden at man bliver bimmelim?” Øltype : Steam Beer / California Common ALC. : 3,5 % Vol Bitterhed : 35 IBU Ingr. : Vand, bygmalt, humle og gær Flaske : 50 cl. Historien bag "Summer Fusion": Summer Fusion var bidraget fra Amager Bryghus til konkurrencen på Københavnske Øldage 2007 om at finde den perfekte sommerøl med max. 3,5% alkohol. Og vi vandt sølv!!

    July 2012. 500 ml bottle, batch # 449, will soon be available at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 3.5%. 35 IBU. Golden colour, slightly hazy. Large white head. Pleasant aroma of citrus, tropical fruits and spruce. Light bodied, refreshing. Dry flavour, some mild roasty notes, hints of coffee (unexpected in a beer this pale), well hopped throughout, notes of citrus and spruce again. An excellent summer thirstquencher!

    Bottle: Poured a deep golden color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and no lacing. Aroma of lemony and citrus hops with a nice caramel malt base. Taste is also dominated by hops which is surprising considering the style. Full body with good carbonation. Very tasty while retaining a lower alcohol level but slightly too hoppy and a strange lemony aftertaste that I could do without.

    Bottled. Hazy orange colour, not much head. Aroma is hops, yeast, some malts and overall quite pleasant. Flavour is the same along with big grassyness in ifnish and aftertaste.

    Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Amber colour with a rich white foam. Dryish aroma of flowers and citric fruits. Light-bodied with notes of flowers, pine-needles and grass. Bitter finish of grapefruit and grass.
