COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Carlsberg 2,7% er brygget som en pilsnerøl og erstattede i slutningen af 2002 den lidt mere bitre Let Carlsberg. Her er der tale om en ren og livlig pilsnersmag, som har en fin bitterhed. Farven er lys gylden, med et hvidt skum. Duften byder på frugtagtige aromaer med antydninger af strå. Nyd Carlsberg 2,7% til fedtfattige retter, salat, råkost, tomater og kål – og til forretningsfrokosten.

English: Carlsberg Light is a light golden beer. The aroma is fresh and malty. The beer has a discreet sourness, a low alcohol content and a fine slim body. Carlsberg Light has lots of Pilsener flavour, but less alcohol. That makes Carlsberg Light the ideal lunch beer.

Ungstrup (23960) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - AUG 12, 2003
A light yellow beer with no head. The aroma is the nose - I think it is the hops used - have tried it in other low alcohol beers. The flavor is primarily hoppy with a little sweetness - as many low alcohol beers. But the palate is very good for a low alcohol beer. If You blind taste this one I think it can fool You for a standard Danish pilsener.

A very light yellow beer with no head. It has a nice hoppy aroma. The flavor is that of hops - probably dry hops as to make the light beer taste of something. Not a beer I can recomend - but then I’m not into light beers so I’m comparing it with normal stregth beer.

Papsoe (22987) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - AUG 14, 2005
(Bottle 33 cl) Neatly fully golden with a fairly decent head. Starts with some malty flavours, but completely lacks body and aftertaste - as would be expected. 161203

(Bottle 33 cl) Pilsener golden with a decent head. Surprisingly fine hoppy aroma and flavour. Naturally not much body. Nice alternative to a pilsener. 051003

oh6gdx (16047) - Vasa, FINLAND - JUN 25, 2010
Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is malts, grass, grains and some mild starch. Flavour is grass, bready malts, some grains and some mild earthy notes. Actually not all that bad for being only 2.7% abv.

joergen (14985) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAY 6, 2009
Bottle at home. Clear yellow coloured with a medium sized white head. Aroma of malts, grain, hay and metal with notes of hops. Flavour of malts, metal and hops, but not much flavour. Watery. OK for a low alcohol.

fiulijn (10383) - Como, ITALY - MAY 4, 2004
Blond color. Light corn-paper aroma. Really thin, with a quite strong ending bitterness, but a too evident alcohol touch.

KimJohansen (10340) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - DEC 31, 2008
Clear golden with medium off white head. Sweet and somewhat malty aroma and grainy aroma. Sweet flavour with hints of malt and cardboard. Could have been worse...

Dedollewaitor (10292) - Odense, DENMARK - FEB 27, 2008
33 cl bottle. Clear gold with a egg white head. Pretty much what Ive expected. Corn, hay & watery combined with invisible hops. This is avaliable travelling with DSB. Not recommendable!
