Se dice que Caín mató a su hermano por envidia. En Amager creemos que el asesinato es llevar las cosas un poco lejos. Sin embargo, admitimos tener envidia por no ser la primera fábrica en hacer el estilo que más admiramos: West Coast IPA. No mataremos a nadie pero a cambio te presentamos "Envy".
No estamos orgullosos de ser pecadores, pero al menos estamos abiertos a ello.
Le pedimos a nuestro director de márketing qué cerveza sería una buena opción para el pecado de la codicia. Reflexionó un segundo y luego dijo: "simplemente debemos hacer lo que hacen los grandes jugadores: coger una cerveza barata y venderla al precio de una excelente". Nuestro director de márketing es un tipo inteligente, así que por supuesto hicimos lo que dijo. Incluso pusimos una foto suya en la etiqueta.
Nos estamos orgullosos de ser pecadores, pero al menos estamos abiertos al respecto...
Amager / Nøgne Ø The Gay Gondolier
American Stron Ale
Her name was Gunnvor. His name was Giacomo. Giacomo first met Gunnvor when she and her dad entered his gondola one summer morning in Venice. How far he paddled and for how long he doesn’t remember. He only had eyes for the beauty of this fair, young Norwegian lady. When Gunnvor and her dad returned to her hometown of Grimstad, Giacomo tagged along leaving behind his beloved Venice and his craving for excellent coffee. He was in a trance with no will of his own. And although he serenaded in front of Gunnvor’s house all through summer he was rewarded by nothing but a slammed door from her dad. Gunnvor left her hometown, presumably marrying a fair fishing millionaire in Ålesund. Giacomo stayed behind in Grimstad, rowing tourists across the fiord. In spite of his broken heart he would be known as The Gay Gondolier for his high pitched beautiful serenading, that left no woman untouched on the fiord, in his gondola, in the sunshine – serving the best Latte in town. But one day Giacomo was gone. An old lady on the island of Håkallene was the last to see him, staggering west towards the setting sun. The Gay Gondolier had left for good.
