(Bottle 33 cl) Beautiful reddish brown with a thin, brownish head. Lovely, almost fatty, malty character with a hint of caramel. Dry and quite bitter. Typical Bavarian Lager. 101202

(Can 33 cl) This is the original canned version from 2002. Very pale, almost clear with a fairly decent head. First flavour impression is water with beer flavour. This has less character than Budweiser or Corona. Second impression is simply foul - artificial and chemical. Avoid at all costs. 251002 (Bottle 33 cl) New version at 4,9% ABV. Pale golden with a pretty much absent head. No real aroma either. Weird sweetness that doesn’t seem to relate to the malt - as there isn’t really any malty feel. No hops either. Resembles beer but has a flavour of....nothing. But at least no unpleasantries or tangs - to it’s credit. 2/2/1/1/4=1,0 141005

(Bottle 33 cl) Very pale golden (resembles a Belgian Wit), hazy beer with a tall and very white head. Very light body with distinct yeasty and wheaty notes. Refreshing and quenching but I miss either the fruity esters found in German wheats or the spiciness found in Belgian Wits. This simply lacks some character. 020402

(Bottle 33 cl) Apparently Carlsberg changed the recipe on this to resemble the premium lager "Grøn Tuborg". Well, let’s just say they didn’t succeed. The colour is decently pilsener golden and the head is dense and quite stable. But the flavour.... Weird bready notes of rye bread - with liver paste. And as much as I like those flavours it’s not to be expected in a beer. Horrible. 051101

330 ml clear bottle, bought in Denmark. ABV is 4.9%. Very pale colour, decent head and lacing. Weak citrussy aroma. Flavour? Nearly flavourless, carbonated water with just a faint hint of crystal malts and citrus. Gets an extra point for not being quite as offensive as some of the other ratings made me expect. The hints of dishwashing liquid in the finish are, after all, not overwhelming ....

Bottled. Golden colour, big bubbly head. Malty and hoppy aroma. Sweet malty flavour with hints of hops. Good balance in this one.

(Bottle 50 cl) Croatian version brewed by Panonska Pivovara in Koprivnica as "Tuborg Gold" at 5,5% ABV. I wonder what this has in common with the Danish original - the yeast? Fully golden with a rather nice and stable head. Pronounced malt-sweetnes in good balance with the hops. Fairly decent pilsener, but nowhere close to it’s Danish namesake. 080405

(Bottle 33 cl) Read some statistics last Christmas: I believe this beer has about 60-70% of the Danish market for Christmas beers. And nothing could be more unjustified. Lovely, dark amber colour with a fine creamy head. Very watery with a hint of caramel-malt and an idea of some hops. You don’t taste the added licorice. Extremely disappointing and very anonymous. If you have the choice, always grab a Carlsberg 47 instead of this crap. 081299

(Bottle 75 cl) Years ago this used to be a nicer, stronger and much more characterful beer. But years have passed and Carlsberg has killed most of it’s personality, dilluting it and turning down the alcohol. Nice amber colour with a decent head. lots of carbonation (could be because of a different bottling in the large, Belgian bottles). Slightly malty character and a light sweetness, but no palate. Definitely not a great beer - anymore. 051199

(Bottle 33 cl) Danish version: Very pale golden, pretty much non-existing head. Rather harmonious and balanced, discreet but existing bitterness and a lightly sweet finish. A none-offending beer for the masses. 210799 (Bottle 38 cl) Plastic bottled Danish version. 4/2/4/2/8=2 110300 (Bottle 33 cl) Icelandic version brewed by "Ölgerdin Egill Skallagrímson" in Reykjavik. Pale golden, with a very small, creamy head. A bit of aroma hops in the nose. Rather sweet malt, medium body and a short, dry hoppiness in the finish. Decent brew and certainly not a beer that will offend anyone.
5/2/3/2/8=2,0 (Bottle 33 cl) Swedish version made by Falcon at 4,2% ABV. Golden beer with a nice creamy head. Light and very drinkable, slightly watery. Very standard lager that neither pleases nor offends. 4/2/4/2/8=2 210202

(Bottle 33 cl) Nicely golden with a good, strong and more stable head than in the Danish original. And not surprisingly this is more bitter. But aromatic and pleasant. 060100 --- Beer merged from original tick of Tuborg Green (4.6%) on 21 Apr 2024 at 17:52. Original review text: Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Malty nose with discrete floral hops. Medium bodied, some malty sweetness and faint floral hops. Subdued bitterness. 210424
