Bryggeren
A story about Carlsberg founder JC Jacobsen, his son Carl, and their struggle to create a brewing company, and simultaneously a look at fifty years of Danish history.

JC works with great energy on rebuilding the brewery after the fire. But he misses his son, whom he still won't allow to return from abroad – primarily because of Carl's continued contact with Emilie. Laura gets a new socialite, who quickly becomes much more interested in JC than Laura.
