Carlsberg Special Brew Reviews

Special Brew is an extremely stong "super-strength" lager from Carlsberg. It is available from all major supermarkets and decent Off-licenses.

It is likely to cause boozey ...  Read the complete review

Carlsberg as a Danish company carries with it the logo and signature catchphrase of being '.....probably the best lager in the World.' It has been brewed since the mid-19th Century, and in 1950, as testament to the heroic war efforts of Winston Churchill, the Danes created a newer, special brew of their lager, making it much stronger at 9%. This ...  Read the complete review

This stuff might as well be served at BP forecourts across the country .. you probably could actually run your car off the stuff. I was introduced to Carlsberg Special Brew a few years ago now, and it's fair to say that it doen't take pride of place in my fridge. The Special Brew was first produced in 1950, to commemorate a visit by ...  Read the complete review

I first started drinking brew when it was sold in dumpy cans. I was glad when the 500ml cans took over although I read in the papers that they are to stop selling the 500ml can due to the people at alchol concern poking their nose in. This would be a sad day for sp brew drinkers and tennants super alike as im sure this would affect the price. ...  Read the complete review

Let me begin this review of this drink by saying that you were warned so if you wake up expecting to see your lovely wife smiling back at you, don't be suprised to see the toothless scowling of a homeless man wanting his blanket and whippet back. I like a drink and the drink I like the most is lager. I will happily guzzle down a ...  Read the complete review

I first met the infamous 'Spesh' when I was sweet 15, and on a camping trip. I was a real man of the world, and was adept at swallowing a litre of cider or 4 cans of skol and the world of alcohol was my oyster. So we went off to Victoria Wine, and lo and behold they had no Skol. Whats this stuff in the attractive gold can? thought he.... ...  Read the complete review

Of course i need a drink, these are my teenage years it would be rude not to. So on a lunchtime we sneak out to browse at the local off license.

Carlsberg, with its origins in Denmark, is the world’s second biggest brewer. Its ‘Special Brew’ is the biggest selling ‘super strength’ beer in the UK. It is a whopping 9% alcohol by volume.

Many years ago when I was just a novice drinker, a friend introduced me to Carlsberg Special Brew. I had already consumed a number of vodkas before this recommendation was made. I was assured that it was the 'cool' thing to be seen drinking. I think I managed just over half the bottle. Up until then I'd had a great evening but the rest ...  Read the complete review

There are few more distinctive beers in terms of taste, appearance, and reputation (notoriety?) than Carlsberg Special Brew. The mere mention of its name will conjure up certain images in the minds of some, and possibly also certain memories (my apologies for reminding you – yes YOU!) Of course many people, even beer-drinkers, will never ...  Read the complete review
