About
Carlsberg’s brewery in Valby, Copenhagen was founded by JC Jacobsen on 10th November 1847.
In 1970, Carlsberg merged with the other leading Danish brewery, Tuborg. Carlsberg Danmark became a fully owned subsidiary of the Carlsberg Group in 2000 and merged with Coca-Cola Tapperierne Danmark in 2001.
Carlsberg has also owned the Wiibroe brewery in North Zealand since 1964 and began brewing Wiibroe beer in 1998.
Carlsberg Danmark is the country’s leading producer and supplier of beer and soft drinks. Carlsberg, Tuborg and Coca-Cola are among the strongest brands in Denmark, giving Carlsberg a 63% share of the beer market and 50% of the soft drinks market.
Address is office only. Production site address: Vestre Ringvej 111, 7000 Fredericia.
Carlsberg Danmark is also enjoying great success in the fast developing speciality beer market. Through the Semper Ardens series, launched in 1999, the Jacobsen Brewhouse, which opened in 2005, and the Kongens Bryghus series, launched in 2007, it has gained a leading position in the sector.
At the end of 2008, Carlsberg Danmark moved all production from its Valby site in Copenhagen to the Carlsberg brewery in Fredericia, thus leaving the industrial Valby site open for a town development project.

4/10
Have tasted quite many of these form different vintages way back in time. Fresh, they are not any god at all, like a raw, way to alcoholic lager without enough taste or body to cope with the high alcohol at all. But some interesting things happen when stored at least 5 years and, in some cases, have a certain development towards 10 years in the cellar until the oxidation takes to much over. It could almost be compared to a thin, and not very complex barley wine. The malt and alcohol with some level of oxidation is quite nice, at least way better than the fresh version. But frankly, I don’t see the point of rating this on those premises. As a fresh lager it is simply to raw and boozy.

Backlog April 2008. Deep amber body under a big, beige head. Aroma is a bit weak with roasted malt and hint of coffee and chocolate. Taste is mild roasted malt, chocolate and slightly fruity. Medium body and average aftertaste. It’s a light and quaffable beer that not impress much in aroma or taste on its own, but as a total impression (an easy drinkable, refreshing milk stout) it’s quite nice.

330 ml, bottle.
Pours clear, deep gold, with a thin, quickly diminishing, white head.
Nose is malty, maybe copper (?), flavor is also malty, a bit of caramel. The usual NA sweetness is really subtle.
Medium carbonation, malty, sweetish finish.
