You know how sometimes things that aren't that great seem better when they cost a lot? Yeah.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark - Carlsberg ASA has launched a beer so expensive it can only be purchased by someone on a champagne budget.The Danish brewer's Vintage No. 1 beer is priced at 2,800 kroner - the equivalent of about $400 Canadian - a bottle. Carlsberg boasts that it's "probably the best" as well as the most expensive beer in the world.
Brewmaster Jens Eiken said only 600 of the 370-millilitre bottles will be produced, and most will be sold through three of Copenhagen's most exclusive restaurants.

after the hard work of a Carlsberg Brewery tour, it's nice to sit down with a few free beers.

This is what you call "snow beer" - ice cold beer served in frozen mugs. The result is ice-y foam and ultra nice beer. Available in Ipoh, Malaysia.

I got all these beers at a special offer + a Carlsberg Bag. They taste great with lemons :)

I took this while I was staying in the Avenue hotel in Denmark. Lovely hotel, and a lovely pint.
