Carling<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that Carling lager is Red Tractor assured<\/strong>? Made with 100% British barley<\/strong>, every grain is fully traceable back to UK farms that uphold rigorous standards. Our team took a trip to Burton-on-Trent, the proud home of the Carling brewery to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carling sources barley from the Molson Coors Growers Group <\/strong>– a UK-based network of barley farmers who partners directly with Molson Coors to supply high-quality malting barley. Red Tractor’s Traceability Programme<\/strong> means that every grain can be traced back to where it was produced, ensuring that it meets high standards of food safety and responsible production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Molson Coors Growers Group, established in 2008, shares advice, data, and insights<\/strong> to help producers take steps to improve the sustainability of their farming practices, while guaranteeing a regular supply of top-quality malting barley. The growers benefit from flexible contract options <\/strong>and market security<\/strong> by signing multi-year deals with Molson Coors to supply its malting barley, as well as joining a community of knowledge and insight. There are now over 130 Molson Coors Growers <\/strong>across the UK, and that number itself is growing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carling performs numerous quality checks<\/strong> throughout its brewing process. They maintain a core focus on ensuring every pint is brewed to the same consistently high standard. That’s quite a feat considering that Carling produce over 1.4m pints every day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch our ‘Grain to Glass’ video to meet the Rowles family, proud Red Tractor farmers<\/strong>, and see how Tony<\/strong>, a Red Tractor Traceability Assessor<\/strong> carried out his checks at the brewery.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
