Carlsberg
Carlsberg was founded in 1847 by the visionary brewer J.C. Jacobsen. J.C. Jacobsen’s brewery, just outside the city ramparts of Copenhagen, Denmark, pioneered steam brewing, refrigeration techniques and, greatest of all, the propagation of a single yeast strain. He demanded quality above all else and his innovations in the art of making beer laid the cornerstone of the modern brewing industry.Please visit Carlsberg Brewery for the rest of the story.

Carlsberg
Carlsberg Pilsner – Probably the best lager in the world since 1904. Carlsberg Pilsner is the flagship in the Carlsberg Group’s portfolio of beers. A regular in millions of bars across 140 countries worldwide it is a truly international brand and pilsner beer of exceptional taste and quality.
Taste and ingredients:
Carlsberg Pilsner is a well-proportioned bottom-fermented lager beer with a flavour of hops, grains, pine needles, sorrel and Danish summer apples. The bitterness of the hops and the apple-like sweetness provide a harmoniously balanced taste. Should ideally be enjoyed at 7-10 degrees Celcius.
ABV: 4.6%
Carlsberg Elephant Malt
Carlsberg Elephant is a true Carlsberg classic. First launched in 1959, it is strong like an elephant in both flavour and alcohol content, offering adventurous beer drinkers across the continent a unique and exotic taste experience.
The colour is light golden amber and the foam white as the tip of the waves of the oceans. The ample use of malt gives Elephant a vinous and rich character. The high hop content in Elephant gives a masculine bitter bite to the beer.
The elephants on the beer’s label are inspired by the two pairs of life-size, elephant statues which form part of the main entrance to Carlsberg’s brewery in Copenhagen. The Elephant Gate has become a famous Danish landmark and gives visitors to the brewery a majestic welcome.
ABV: 7.2%
