There are brewery names that are really difficult to pronounce. We are thinking here of the capital brewery BRLO , Moersleutel or the team from the Maryensztadt Craft Brewery . The Danish brewery Tuborg does not belong in this category, but its name still has an interesting history.
It all started with a very special place. There was once a small inn where the current brewery is located. The landlord and founder was Jonas Thues. His pub was little more than a pieced together tin shack and yet the people of his town still liked to meet there. The atmosphere was always good, the beer flowed freely and no one minded that the wind whistled through every crack. Because Jonas Stube soon achieved something of a cult status, people gave his inn the nickname Thues Borg, which can roughly be translated as Thues Burg or castle. There was a touch of irony when choosing the name, but the title persisted and over time changed from Thues Borg to the shorter Tuborg. The actual brewery was founded at the same location in 1873. The founding father of the brewery was Philip W. Heyman, who not only had a cool last name, but also a lot of ideas, enthusiasm and entrepreneurial spirit. The entrepreneur was known for his sparkling energy and lived by the motto “Standing still is falling behind,” which would later become the motto of his brewery.
The home of the brewery has always been the port. This special place is the starting point for adventure, the home anchor for sea travelers and the gateway to the world - perfect for a budding business! From the coast of Denmark, Tuborg conquered distant lands and built a trading network that today has more than 72 partners all over the world. In addition to producing the finest beers, Tuborg cares most about their fellow human beings. Back in 1931, the brewery founded the Tuborg Foundation to help people fulfill their dreams. Music is key, but the organization also supports other good causes. Since its founding, the brewery has donated 30% of its dividends to the foundation every year and has been able to support an incredible 15,500 projects. In addition to a large music festival, the brewery sponsors a support program that makes it easier for young musicians to get started in the business and provides them with mentors. Beer brings people together, beer moves people and makes them happy - the Tuborg team proves this every day.
