Carlsberg Export JC Jacobsen founded his first brewery on a hill in the village of Valby near Copenhagen and he called it Carlsberg after Carl, his five year old son and the Danish word for hill - berg. JC Jacobsen introduced new standards of production to the Danish market and his new beer was an instant success. As Carlsberg became more successful JC Jacobsen ensured that his son was trained to follow in his footsteps and in 1870 he founded an independent brewery adjacent to his own site for Carl. Following a disagreement with his father Carl Jacobsen later established a brewery of his own. In 1881 Ny Carlsberg (New Carlsberg) was inaugurated and Carlsberg is brewed on the same site to this day. Carlsberg is one of the largest brewery companies in the world, present in about 50 countries. Carlsberg is the global premium beer in Carlsberg Breweries' portfolio. With its golden colour and delicate smell of hops and malt, Carlsberg is the quintessential pilsner beer. Carlsberg is medium-bodied, dry and well proportioned with a characteristic hop bitterness that supports its fine structure. Carlsberg is the perfect accompaniment for a meal with friends and family, or any occasion when good friends meet. Each ingredient in a Carlsberg is carefully selected and must live up to a strict quality code. Specially chosen hops from unpollenated female hop flowers, malt from lightly roasted spring barley, and Carlsberg's famous yeast, Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, are brewed with pure water to create what is 'Probably the best beer in the world'. $94.99 Carton (500ml Can x 24) qty: Carton (500ml Can x 24) Alcohol %: 5% Brewery: Carlsberg Brewery Country: Denmark Type: Lager - Euro Note: Images on this website are for illustration only.
