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.

Bottle. Golden clear. More than expected malty aromas. Aqua taste and finish. Dry. Not bad for a low alcoholic beer.

kuphish (351) - Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA - AUG 30, 2010
Can from the grocery store in Reykjavik. Pours a clear, pale gold body with a moderately sized, fizzy head. Dissipating. Aroma is dominated by floral and herbal hops. Little to no malt aroma. Very pleasant Saaz-ish hop character. Sweet, lightly bready pils malt comes through first in the flavor - somewhat candyish. Cut with some of the hops, but they play a lesser role than in the nose. Light, crisp body with bubbly carbonation. Dry, lightly bitter finish is surprisingly clean. Overall a pleasant, clean summer beer that hit the spot after a busy day. If the flavor had matched the aroma in its balance the beer would be much better.

Little bit of a hoppy start, but a good finnish.

Pinball (8607) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JUN 12, 2008
What can i say - tasted better than a carlsberg 4.7%. looked great too, with nice head - and was refreshing. sweet flavor. totally underrated for a low alc. beer.

KnutAlbert (4603) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 13, 2009
Bottle. Light and watery, yes, but they have managed to keep some of the flavour and hoppy crispness in this one. Tehre are far worse beers in the Carlsberg stable, even with much higher alcohol content.

Camons (2167) - Hasselager, DENMARK - OCT 8, 2011
Bottle @ Home. Pours light golden with a white head. Aroma of malt, grain, straw. Taste is malt, grain, grassy hops. Thin watery body, lively carbonation. Refreshing, and pretty good for a low alchohol beer. 081011

Aroma is not disagreeable, but not special either. Smells like fermented grains, some alcohol. Looks very average as well, pours with almost no head to speak of. Lots of bubbles going up, looks a lot like pop too. Has okay flavour for a light beer, strong malts flavour and not at all watery. Feels good on the mouth too. An above average light beer that actually tastes like beer, which isn’t a bad thing.

I am ashamed of how much I enjoy this beer. It has something I can’t figure out about it that I like.

Blond beer wtih a small head. Clear hop aroma. Light bitter taste. Quite ok for a low alcohol beer.
