Visit Carlsberg
Crew
visiting Amsterdam would probably remember the fun playful atmosphere
at the Heineken Brewery (click here to read about Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam here!) Well, Visit Carlsberg definitely ain't like
that.
Probably in a way reflecting the angst between founder JC Jacobsen and his son Carl (hence the name...), the museum is seems a more serious exhibition of the business and history of Carlsberg.

Reflecting
Carl's love of art, the grounds also feature various sculptures
including a smaller replica of the Little Mermaid which the company
installed at its present location in 1913.
There is a bottle collection of the various brands produced by Carlsberg, numbering over 22,000 at last count.
There is also sampling of the first lager based on the original Carlsberg recipe and the stables of horses used to previously deliver products.
Another attraction is probably the unique varieties of Carlsberg that are only available here, including one made with oyster (watch those allergies...)
The cafe also had a nice cosy feel to it and allowed for an
introduction to Danish cuisine for a reasonable price. But other than
that, can be a bit of a walk from the train station, and may not endear
itself to everyone..
.
To
get there, take the S-train to 'Enghave' station and take a walk to the
station. It is some ways off, so bring a map. Cost is 80kr for an
adult, including 2 drinks.

Little Mermaid
Do
it once at least to get that tick in the box, then decide if it was
worth the fuss. Take the train to Osterport Station, then follow the
signs showing "Den Lille Havfrue" to the site. Can be rather daunting in
the winter winds...
