Ever since the 1800s Denmark has been well known for the Carlsberg and Tuborg lager beer brands. In 1970 Carlsberg took over Tuborg and right now the brewery ranks as the fourth biggest in the world, But Danish beer is not all about Carlsberg any longer. After the millenium many craft breweries have shown up all over Denmark and in Copenhagen, challenging the traditional lager beer with lots of different and tasty beer styles.
Join us on this guided Copenhagen beer walk covering three beer tastings and a general introduction to either Vesterbro or Nørrebro with your colleagues, friends or family. The local areas Nørrebro and Vesterbro have changed a lot the last 20 years. In the past they were gloomy working class districts. But after undergoing several urban renewals, they are now both considered being the most vibrant and cool, local neighbourhoods of Copenhagen.
On our way we will tell you the story of past and present on either Nørrebro or Vesterbro. And during our walk we will drop by a traditional inn (during summer season for a road beer), a trendy craft brewery bar and a local café for three tastings, eg IPA, stout and lager beer. Your knowledgeable guide will tell the story of the traditional Danish lager beer as well as introducing you to the contemporary micro brewery successes. If you wish, we can even provide you with a list of more cool bars to visit after the tour…
Cheers!
