To mark the 170th years of beer discoveries, Carlsberg hosted beer lovers from all over the world to experience the impact it has had on the world of brewing and on its homeland, Copenhagen. An entourage of 32 Malaysians joined the global anniversary celebration with iconic landmarks sightseeing, art exhibitions, beer-infused food dinning, special beer tastings, visits to castles and museum, walks around the home of Carlsberg founder J.C. Jacobsen, culminating to the climax of the week with Probably The Best Street Party in The World at the Old Carlsberg Road.

The Malaysian entourage, comprised of grand prize winners of Carlsberg’s Probably The Best Brewery Tour contest and their partners, together with 10-year long service employees of Carlsberg Malaysia and their spouses, were given the privileged to set foot on the normally restricted areas of historical Carlsberg grounds and treated with exclusive ex-beer-ience where beers meet arts and science.

The entourage indulged in a unique Nordic cuisine served only with ingredients used in beer brewing prepared by Head Chef of the Carlsberg Museum in collaboration with experts from the Carlsberg Research Centre. The group visited Carlsberg Laboratory where they were briefed on how Carlsberg revolutionised the entire brewing industry improving quality through science. Before talking a stroll at J.C. Jacobsen’s family villa, they also visited the ‘Streets of the World’ photo exhibition by photojournalist Jeroen Swolfs at the Carlsberg’s old brewhouse and had special taste tasting of three types of Jacobsen brews at the Carlsberg cellars.

Visits to the New Carlsberg Glyptotek, a fine-arts museum with antique sculptures and art collections donated by Carlsberg; the Frederiksborg Castle, which launched an exhibition dedicated to J.C. Jacobsen, his son Carl Jacobsen and his contemporaries who were all part of the so-called Golden Age of Copenhagen as well as the most photographed Little Mermaid on Langelinie Promenade, donated by Carl Jacobsen, were probably the best discoveries of Carlsberg’s footprints in the beautiful city of Copenhagen.
