This dark pilsner has, over the years, become a clear sign that Christmas is upon us. The annual launch in Denmark, known as 'J-day', takes place the first Friday in November and is a day of celebration across Denmark. Carlsberg employees drive around in truck to visit bars and cafés while singing the traditional Tuborg Christmas Brew song and handing out free beer to the guests to mark the start of the festive season.
The beer itself is a bottom-fermented wiener beer brewed on lager, münchener and caramel malt, and added English liquorice. The beer is dark-golden with a fresh aroma of caramel, cereal, liquorice and blackcurrant.

Bottle at Nemoland, Cristiania. Poured a crystal clear medium amber with a broken white head. The aroma is ripe red berry fruit. The flavour is moderate bitter light sweet with a rich malty red berry fruit, hop bitter palate and a lingering sweet bitter finish. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Not so bad, but lacks body and flavour.

Duft av eik, frukter og karamell. Fin gyllen nøttebrun farge. Tynn hinne skum, heng langs kant. Smak av frukter, nøtter og en anelse karamell.

500ml can, labelled as Tuborg Christmas Brew and made in Russia. ABV is the same. Copper colour with a small off-white head. Aroma of caramel. Taste is slightly bitter. I don’t see what is so Christmassy about it.
