Scandinavia and USA in armed Neutrality alliance? Was this ever proposed?

I remember reading somewhere that some Scandinavian nations approached the USA with an alliance of armed Neutrality, or something similiar to do with trade and shipping. Is this true? And if so, when did it happen?

Might have been during the French Revolutionary and/or Napoleonic wars, when USA and Denmark-Norway ought to have had common interests in sailing and trading on the oceans without British interferrence.
