COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Carlsberg Elephant er en såkaldt ”Bockbier” og blev brygget for første gang i 1959. Den er vinøs og frugtig med smagsindtryk af æbler, melon, banan og karamel afbalanceret af en tør bitterhed. Du fornemmer også antydninger af egetræ, bark, nødder og fyrrenåle. Farven er lys gylden med hvidt skum.

English: Carlsberg Elephant Beer is an amber-coloured beer with big intensity in its aroma, and with a distinct maltyness. There is notes of honey in the aroma. The palate of Carlsberg Elephant shows a good balance between a good body from the alcohol, and a discrete sweetness which is tamed by the sophisticated bitterness of the aftertaste.

Canned. Dark gold. A wonder I haven’t rated thjis before, I have had quite a few from well before my legal dinking age. A very stadnard Euro lager,a nd you feel the alcohol edge. But it is decently crafted for what it is.

larsga (4435) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUN 4, 2008
Medium offwhite fine-laced head. Golden body with light carbonation. Fruity dusty malt aroma with alcohol notes. Sweet-dry tobacco taste with alcoholic vaguely rotten fruit notes. Sharp dry cardboard and grass aftertaste with chalky notes lingers. Some alcohol heat. Deeply unpleasant. Poured out the rest. (0.33l can, Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

...this stuff will rip you, that is for sure. You only taste the alcohol when it gets warm, otherwise, watch out. Great malt flavors, not overly heavy. Aftertaste is not overpowering, unless it is warm. Pretty well balanced, considering the fact it is so high in alcohol. Wotrh a try.

TrefwoordPunk (652) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - MAY 22, 2008
Bottle 33 cl. Pours a yellowish golden with a medium white head and a grainy and alcoholic aroma. The taste is both sweet and hoppy, with a bitter finish. Not really alcoholic. Just a nice beer, nothing more

phishpond417 (2089) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 17, 2008
Reminds me of Euro Mickey’s- Pours a clear yellow colour. Taste is a predictably grainy and watered down. Aroma is skunkified mildly hoppy and dull.
