Tuborg Lager is a beer brand that originated in Denmark in 1880, and although it’s only recently been widely exported to the UK it’s nonetheless growing in popularity.

Tuborg Lager was created for the Danish market, with the Tuborg brewing company being founded in 1873. Tuborg Lager was first brewed in 1880 and quickly became popular, with the brewery merging with United Breweries in 1894.

Since its conception, the popularity of Tuborg Lager has steadily increased, so much so that Carlsberg bought out United Breweries in 1970. Since then, the Tuborg beer brand has been steadily rising, with an annual growth of around 10% year on year.

It isn’t hard to see why the Tuborg beer brand is so popular. As well as the original Tuborg Lager it’s also home to numerous other brands including Tuborg Lemon, Tuborg Christmas Beer, Tuborg Lite and Tuborg Gold, offering something to all beer drinkers no matter what they’re looking for.

The original Tuborg Lager is brewed at 4.2% ABV, although there are several other variants in its home country. Tuborg is rising in popularity in the UK as well, and you’ll often be able to find some great deals on this particular beer brand. It’s recently been the partner beer for a number of high-profile music events including the Reading and Leeds festivals, only enhancing its popularity.

Tuborg is famed for its traditional beer taste, being full-bodied and flavoursome. It’s perfect for all ardent beer drinkers who are looking for that refreshing, full flavour, and many tout it as being the best beer export from Denmark. It’s famous for another reason too – it was one of the first beer brands to use the ring-pull cap, making it an innovation in lager history.

Bottles are the most common format you’ll be able to find Tuborg in, but there’s also the option of cans so there’s something for all tastes. If you’re drinking it at home, always remember to serve it chilled and if possible in a traditional lager glass to really get the best effect.

It isn’t hard to see why Tuborg Lager is such a popular beer brand. It’s one of Denmark’s finest exports, and with such a crisp and refreshing taste it’s sure to go down well no matter when you want it. Enjoy it at home or down your local, and make sure to spend the time to truly appreciate its unique flavour.
