We booked the tour for two. We were greeted and given a taste of their pilsner prior to being released to the tour at our pace. I don't think this tour is worthwhile because it's self guided and you learn mostly about the scientific and brewing history of the brewery from brief video presentations and signs that are posted with quick bits of information.

What you don't see in real time is the brewing process or any facets related to the scientific research related to the company's success. I've taken tours of the Jack Daniels whisky distillery. I paid about the same price and received a guided tour of the distillery with an excellent tour guide that took questions frequently. Each tourist received a special commemorative glass and sampled 5 whiskeys, including limited releases, all for about $25 USD. We also got to see the making of the whiskey, and visited the Rick House (barrel storage building for aging whisky).

The Carlsberg Brewery left much to be desired. At the end of this tour, we received a drink of our choice from the Carlsberg bar. We were limited to four beers which did not include a stout or porter. Why are stouts and porters not in rotation? It's October and dark beer season.

My wife had a diet coke and it was syrupy and flat. We went back to the bar to have this resolved. We were given another glass of diet coke and it was slightly more carbonated than the first glass. It made us think how the founder of the brewery would be turning in his grave for the bar dispensing flat soda. We don't recommend this experience unless you have a strong interest in beer. Copenhagen offers more interesting stops.
