History

The Jacobsen Brewhouse (Husbryggeriet Jacobsen in Danish) officially opened on 31 May 2005. Its creation was intended to spearhead Carlsberg's renewed focus on specialty beers in response to the growing market segment sparked by the microbrewery movement. The brewery currently has an annual production capacity of 1,700,000 litres (equal to 5 million 330 ml bottles), but has the potential of doubling in size to 3,500,000 litres. Originally only available in Denmark, Jacobsen has now expanded its distribution to limited areas in Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the United States.
