Twentieth century beer writer Michael Jackson wrote of Thisted's Limfjords Porter:

"It was full of character: a dense, brownish, head over a slatey, black, brew; full-bodied and lightly oily; a touch of burnt-grass, rooty, peatiness; a long, warming, finish; and an alcohol content of 7.9. The flavours were very complex, and I was not surprised to hear that both smoked malt and licorice were used."^[3]

In 2016 Thisted Brewery produced a "beer geek" version of Limfjords Porter in cooperation with international craft brewer, Mikkeller.^[7][8]
