    Abstract

    The focus of the paper is loyalty to two brands of beer produced by the Carlsberg Group - Tuborg and Carlsberg. Both beers are lagers. The Carlsberg Group markets Tuborg as a more premium brand, and it also aims to promote it to women. Unlike in the Netherlands with one brand - Heineken and unlike in the Czech Republic with many well-known brands by a multitude of producers, the Danish case gives a unique opportunity to investigate if customers truly prefer one of two brands or are approximately equally low in loyalty to any brand as it is produced by the same company and tastes very similarly (if not the same), i.e. if brand loyalty can be built to similar products produced by the same company. Data for the research were collected using an on-line questionnaire. The survey was conducted in Denmark. Respondents were Danish university students; such selection was done in order to ensure familiarity of respondents with both brands. Attitudinal and behavioral components of loyalty were measured by validated constructs consisting of two statements each.
