The University of Adelaide has a proud tradition in barley breeding and commercialization of new varieties. The varieties from the program have held a large component of Australia's barley production. A number the key varieties are important examples of how the basic research that we conduct at the University translates into commercial outcomes and real-world changes in terms of practices, sustainability and profitability. Typically the varieties from the University of Adelaide account for about half of Australia's barley production. We've worked very closely with end-user customers such as Sapporo Breweries, Carlsberg and Heineken Breweries to produce new varieties that offer improved flavour stability, improved shelf life of the beer. ..improved foam retention in the beer ..aspects from the barley that really do have an impact on end user quality and and what customers ultimiately see. The variety we're focused on at the moment is called Navigator and that's a little different in that it's tailor made specifically for our domestic brewing markets including craft breweries and all mild beer styles. Not only do we expect Navigator to offer the industry an increase in terms of brew house yield but also an increase in efficiency in terms of the through put of those breweries. What makes this particular beer special is that we've had within Adelaide a very nice collaboration between the University producing the variety with the Botanical Gardens growing it for us the barley malt's been here to the Lobethal Beirhaus for brewing with the Coopers Brewers assisting and create a very nice beer which I think people will enjoy as an American IPA type beer. (The flavour) ..nice, fruity floral with sort of a citrus background. ..so a very nice collaboration between the different parties.

History

The Ny Carlsberg Brewhouse was built by Carl Jacobsen as the new brewhouse of his Ny Carlsberg Brewery which he had founded after a conflict with his father, Carlsberg-founder J. C. Jacobsen. It was designed by Vilhelm Klein and completed in 1901, replacing a smaller brewhouse still to be seen on the opposite side of the road. The new brewhouse complex also included a straw storage house to the east and a hops store with a yeast cellar to the west.^[1]

In 1920 the brewhouse complex was extended northward by Carl Harild and then altered in 1949 and 1965.^[1] Later, when the facilities became outdated, the buildings were put to other use. In 2006, Carlsberg decided to close the Valby brewery and instead redevelop the area . In 2008, the year beer production on the site was discontinued, the brewhouse became a listed building. In early 2011 it was stripped of its inventory and most of its furnishings to prepare it for other use.^[2]

Architecture

The Ny Carlsberg Brewhouse is built in the Historicist style which also characterizes the rest of the Carlsberg area.

The main source of inspiration comes from Italian Renaissance architecture. The building's facade with its balcony is inspired by Palazzo Bevilacqua in Verona.

Roof-top sculpture

On the roof stands Carl Johan Bonnesen's large group sculpture "Thor's battle against the Jötunns". The group of figures was originally a competition proposal for a monument at Langelinie which was won by Anders Bundgaard's Gefion Fountain. Carl Jacobsen subsequently asked Bonnesen to produce a copy for his new brewhouse.^[3]
