Jacobsen Original Dark Lager is based on the oldest recipe in the Carlsberg archives - JC Jacobsen’s original recipe of 1854.
We analysed the water used in Jacobsen’s time and created an exact copy of his starting ingredient by adding salts and minerals. The main raw material is Münchenermalt from Germany, but we have also added a "floor malt" from England, just as was done in the 1850's. The beer is fermented at low temperature to give a specially mild and rounded caramel flavour.
