Carlsberg Brewery

After my European Business Strategy presentation on May 5th, all of the International Business classes had the chance to go to the Carlsberg Brewery. As a group, we headed over to the old house of the founder. There we had free pizza and beer. Once we finished that, we went to the old brewery. We got to see the Carlsberg horses. Some of my friends and I were about to take a picture with one of the horses and the horse started to eat my friends hair. We saw the an old car used for the brewery, the mansion the founder used, and the old brewery. Our tour headed over to the new factory, which was started by the son of Carlsberg after disagreeing with his dad on the brewing process. The elephants that are by the new factory are the 2nd most photographed sights in Copenhagen, behind the Little Mermaid Statue. Sadly, we couldn't get into the new brewery since it was after 7pm. Instead we headed over to the Jacobsen Brewhouse where we got free drinks for 3 hours. Going on this trip was a nice chance to say goodbye to all my class and spend one last time together.
