Jacobsen (beer) - History

History

The Jacobsen Brewhouse (Husbryggeriet Jacobsen in Danish) officially opened on the 31st of 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.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    I am not a literary man.... I am a man of science, and I am interested in that branch of Anthropology which deals with the history of human speech.
    —J.A.H. (James Augustus Henry)

    A man acquainted with history may, in some respect, be said to have lived from the beginning of the world, and to have been making continual additions to his stock of knowledge in every century.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
