Extra info Danish brewing company founded in 1873 by Carl Frederik Tietgen. Since 1970 it has been part of the Carlsberg Group. The brewery was founded in Hellerup (Gentofte Municipality), a part of northern Copenhagen, Denmark.
The name Tuborg comes from Thuesborg ("Thues castle"), a Copenhagen inn from the 1690s situated in the area of the brewery. This evolved and was adopted into local placenames, such as Lille Tuborg and Store Tuborg. "Tuborgvej" street in Copenhagen is named after the site of the original Tuborg brewery.
Tuborg initially produced pale lager for the Danish market. It merged with United Breweries in 1894, which then entered into a profit-sharing agreement with Carlsberg in 1903. In 1970, United Breweries was acquired by Carlsberg.
Today, it makes lager for global export, as well as a variety of continental styles for both domestic and foreign markets. In its native country of Denmark, Tuborg is also known for additional brands including Tuborg Red and various soft drinks including orange-flavoured Tuborg Squash
In 1996 the last Tuborg beer was brewed in Hellerup and the area is now providing fashionable apartments, houses and business offices.
