Grøn Tuborg

Denmark·Pale Lager
Tap to rate

The flagship of the brand was first brewed in 1880, from pilsner malt and Tuborg's own yeast. It pours lively, clear and straw gold under a chalk-white head. The nose offers summery grain with gentle sweet-fruity notes and faint hints of flowers and citrus. On the palate it is crisp and thirst-quenching, with a soft malt core, medium body and a mild, restrained hop bitterness in the finish.
