This article says that it "can be drunk in the morning with breakfast" Any beverage can be consumed any time of day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.37.125.98 (talk) 13:29, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think I've understood it to be an aperitif typically consumed at breakfast. (Having once sniffed a glass, I marvel that it can be drunk at all, let alone at breakfast, but that's me.) If someone can source this assertion, it would be more appropriate. Cantabwarrior (talk) 19:29, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
From the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, in the section about the typical Danish breakfast: On Sundays, many Danes eat ........ in addition, fruit juice is often served and sometimes a glass of Gammel Dansk or another bitter.
When I was young, a traditional Danish business breakfast would consist of Danish pastries, beer and a shot of bitters. The beer isn't so acceptable nowadays, but the bitters tradition carries on – especially on special occasions, such as anniversaries, birthdays etc. navlebeskuelse (talk) 15:48, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

palm[edit]

Why is the picture for a drink from Denmark taken with palm trees in the background? It's hard to imagine this drink as part of Danish culture when it looks like it's in Barbados Guypersonson (talk) 03:10, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not the best picture if you want to see that from it. The image page description says: A bottle of the Danish bitter Gammel Dansk, photographed on a balcony in India. Maybe it is a part of Danish culture, but it is sold in almost any country... 212.50.203.198 (talk) 01:19, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

article[edit]

I've rewritten the article adding stuff and putting in an extra reference. Couldn't change the picture.. - (Andersen) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.83.18.197 (talk) 11:16, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
