Welcome to the Home of Carlsberg! At Home of Carlsberg, you step inside an iconic area with an exhibition and attraction in the heart of Carlsberg's original brewery. You will be taken back to where it all started in 1847 with the story of what Carlsberg was and is today. The exhibition unfolds the captivating story of Carlsberg and Carlsberg's founder, J.C. Jacobsen, and his son, Carl Jacobsen. A story about how disputes between father and son and widely differing perceptions of beer brewing have shaped Carlsberg. Through interactive games and videos in the exhibition, you will learn more about the science that has played an essential role for Carlsberg since its foundation and its importance for the development of beer worldwide. You will also experience one of the world's largest bottle collections, with more than 22,000 beer bottles. And that is just a fraction of what the exhibition contains.

Great day good mix of history and interactive displays. Buildings are old so some stairs in places which could be problematic for less mobile.

“Really enjoyed the Carlsberg brewery experience! The historic grounds and buildings are beautiful, and the exhibition does a great job blending Carlsberg’s rich history with interactive displays and fun beer facts. The guided elements and tasting session were highlights—fresh beer straight from the source hits differently. It’s well-organized and informative without feeling too commercial. My only minor gripe is that it’s a bit of a trek from central Copenhagen and you’ll want to allocate a few hours. Still, a solid visit for beer lovers and history buffs. Definitely worth it—4/5 stars! 🍺”

We went to the Carlsberg experience, almost all interactive and we really liked it, then you get a beer at the bar.

Well this is a smooth slick experience and very nice, shame the horses were busy working! But the beer is much better here than in the UK

We booked for the 10.15 am tour but I don't think it matters about the exact time, as you have to get there 15 minutes beforehand but they didn't open the gates till after 10.00 am. I really interesting tour about the brewery and family quite alot of steps but there is a lift to come down near the end. If you are a Liverpool FC you will really appreciate the dressing room, if not you'll probably avoid it 😃 You have a free beer or soft drink at the end of the tour and a near area to drink it. We also booked for 12pm the beer tasting which went down well and was popular. A great visit enjoyed by all.

An enjoyable experience that offers an insight to the history of Carlsberg. A beer included at the end of the tour which was really enjoyable. Very knowledgable and professional staff. The Italian bar man in particular was knowledgable and welcoming.

The exhibition is interesting and very large. It is not suitable for people with disabilities. Afterwards there is also a beer to taste. We tried the Easter beer, which is almost fruity. In the shop you could try a Tuborg with coffee roasting. That was very interesting. Anyone who has been to other breweries has seen more.

Staff rude to the reception (first room), disrespectful in a free way. When asked to receive the welcome beer tasting, the attendant in the first room expressed denial and railing against us without cause. Tour not very representative of beer production and very focused on the founders. Very negative experience.

1. Exaggerated price for the type of visit that exclusively tells the life of the founder. The entire route takes place in rooms carved out of the old factory with large screens that create confusion. I would have expected, given the total digitalization of the route, that the dialogues would be available not only and exclusively in English (and Danish subtitles). Very little is told about brewing. 2. Grumpy and unwelcoming staff. We were a group of eight people who entered the first room of the visit last. We found a staff member who had distributed to all guests (except us) a glass with a taste of beer and was describing how the visit would take place. Out of politeness we didn't interrupt. At the end we asked to have the taste but the attendant told us to continue. Four of us insisted. The attendant with a lot of nervousness slammed a glass on the counter and angrily poured the beer out of the glass. An experience to forget.

At the first room of the tour we were greeted with rudeness by the staff girl at the request to taste the beer. Also high ticket price for the experience offered
