Special Brew

I have tagged the section both {{POV-section}} and {{fact}} due to the reversions. If the stated case is such then the user who included iit should proved sufficent evidencc that is verifiable that it is the case, other wise it is POV and should be reomved. I say give it week then toss it. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 05:53, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously none of you people questioning this are from the UK. Special Brew is nearly universally seen as the reserve of the homeless, alcholics and teenage youths in parks. There's nothing "special" about it, its about as far away from a premium drink as you can get. http://www.ciao.co.uk/Reviews/Carlsberg_Special_Brew_Lager_9_0_Vol__5177053 http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Tramps+brew http://www.subvulture.com/archive/223.html http://society.guardian.co.uk/communities/comment/0,,1584008,00.html http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,,1583903,00.html

Yeah here in the UK special brew is basically drunk only by alcoholics and kids, its got a bad image and one which is widely accepted by the public134.36.93.46 (talk) 17:02, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

'Tramp Juice'? Whilst I agree that most of the British public are aware of Special Brews general demographic, and I have no doubt that the Carlsberg company deliberately aim their product at this market, this is a slang term and hardly universal.

Brewbox

What's up with the Brewbox? Why is it so hacked and down at the bottom of the page? --Brownings 09:52, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like to know my slef, i put something on the project page addressing this issue, i would say feel free to revert it. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 09:56, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not only beer

Carlsberg don't only do beer; they also do soft drink like Festis, etc. Shandris^the ^azylean 14:03, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Carlsberg Export

Carlsberg Export is listed as a brand. Is it really? Isn't it really just one of the beers of the Carlsberg brand, along with Carlsberg Hof, Carlsberg Sort etc. The Carlsberg Export beers here in Sweden have a very similar look to the other Carlsberg beers, and that IMO makes it a beer variety, not a brand.

Also, why is it listed as (UK)? It is available in more places. /Kriko 19:53, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Elephants

What's the link with elephants? I went on a tour around the brewery many years ago and seem to recall that one of JC Jacobsen sons died at a young age and had a liking for elephants. Any idea if this is true?

Anon user 22:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone please add the source of information on the elephants being inspired from Minerva Square - see picture of elephants from Minerva here http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Bernini-Elefant.jpg. Swastika and elephants are both quite Indian and symbols generally found at the enterance for prosperity - I am wondering if there is a link?

Headquarters

"Carlsberg is "probably" one of the largest brewery companies in the world, present in about 50 countries. The headquarters are in Valby, Denmark" Firs line says HQ is in Valby, but board on the right says "Headquarters Copenhagen, Denmark" So where is it?
Valby is a suburb to copenhagen. Valby and Copenhagen (the capital in Denmark) is thereby the same place! --80.197.108.176 21:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC) (a citizen in Denmark)[reply]

Toronto FC sponsorship

I don't know if it's true that they are the "main" sponsor of TFC. As far as I know they're just the beer sponsor at BMO field, they are probably not going to be the shirt sponsor of the club.

Volume

nothing in the article about volume, but carlsberg have recently reduced the volume of their lager from 4.0% to 3.8%... 86.155.63.91 (talk) 17:31, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hof, nickname discontinued in 1991?

The article says "This nickname was adopted into the brand in 1931 but discontinued in 1991.". It still goes by the name Hof. Look at a bottle. [1] (at least in Sweden). Kricke (talk) 10:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Carlsberg = Heineken

Is it known to many people that these two lagers are exactly the same ? Khalsaburg (talk) 00:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It would be weird if it was known to many people, seeing as it is not true. --Saddhiyama (talk) 00:36, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose they are arguably similar (and I would argue they are not particuarly similar) but the same? No. Dead celeb (talk) 21:32, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
