UK: Carling remains best-selling lager in the UK
UK’s pubs have been closed for months due to the national lockdown, but it is not long before people can enjoy a cold pint in a beer garden.
The Morning Advertiser revealed that Carling has been the best-selling lager for some years, as shown by CGA data.
Foster’s took the second spot, whilst Carlsberg was found to be the third most popular lager in the country, as reported by The Morning Advertiser.
Last year was particularly difficult for the hospitality industry due to the forced closures as a result of national lockdowns.
Around 6,358,309 hectolitres of lager were sold in pubs across the UK last year, which has fallen from the 10,144,183 hectolitres of lager sold in 2019, according to CGA figures.
Carling made up 1,722,739 hl of the lager that was sold across the country in the year up to October 2020. This amount of lager brought in £989.5 million to UK pubs.
Around 1,023,530 hl of Foster’s was sold across the country, whilst approximately 574,656 hl of Carlsberg was sold in pubs.
The reopening of beer gardens across the country will be welcomed by many Brits, with several pubs booked up for weeks and months in advance.
