Royal Brand [edit]

The largest brand of Unibrew is Royal. It is based on the two most popular beers in the Unibrew: The Ceres Royal Export, and Faxe Pilsner/Classic. Royal Export was also brewed by the other breweries in the group, but later the Pilsner and Classic were added to make a complete family of beer as is traditional in Denmark.
