  • Jacobsen and the Carlsberg Brewery in Copenhagen Fathi Habashi
    Laval University From the SelectedWorks of Fathi Habashi May, 2018 Jacobsen and the Carlsberg Brewery in Copenhagen Fathi Habashi Available at: https://works.bepress.com/fathi_habashi/283/ Jacobsen and the Carlsberg Brewery in Copenhagen1 Fathi Habashi Laval University, Quebec City, Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT Scientific beer making was achieved in Copenhagen when Jacob Christian Jacobsen founded in 1876 the Carlsberg Brewery. He founded a laboratory where chemists and biochemists devised scientific methods for chemical analysis and fermentation chemistry. Through the Carlsberg Foundation, Jacobsen and his son Carl were generous philanthropists and art collectors that contributed greatly to the development of Denmark. INTRODUCTION Innovations in the brewing process came about with the introduction of the thermometer in 1760 and hydrometer in 1770, which allowed brewers to increase efficiency. Louis Pasteur's 1857 discovery of yeast's role in fermentation led to brewers developing methods to prevent the souring of beer by undesirable microorganisms. The advent of automatic bottling, commercial refrigeration, and the rise of the railroads made mass production and distribution possible. In 1876 The Danish industrialist Jacob Christian Jacobsen (1811–1887) (Figure 1) founded the Carlsberg Brewery (Figures 2-4) on the outskirts of Copenhagen and named it after his son Carl. The Carlsberg Group became a global brewer employing around 41,000 people, primarily located in Europe and Asia. The old brewery is currently open for tours. In the courtyard of the Visitors Centre is a smaller replica of the Little Mermaid Figure 1- Jacob Christian Statue (Figure 5) that Jacobsen donated Jacobsen (1811 –1887) to Copenhagen.
