hopIQ found 10 beers with the same caramel and malty character as Carlsberg 1883. Carlsberg 1883 is fermented with a yeast strain that the Carlsberg Laboratory recultivated from a bottle found in the cellars of the old brewery, the same lager yeast Emil Christian Hansen had purified in 1883. The beer is copper-coloured with a fine, dense head. The aroma is clean and fresh with light touches of malt and caramel, and the caramel carries through to a rounded, malt-led palate with restrained bitterness. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Tsingtao Augerta A6 — 97%. Same caramel notes and malt character, with a floral edge Carlsberg keeps quiet.
