Did You Know...

- Cask ale accounts for 15% of all draught beers consumed in the United Kingdom.
- The gas in real ale is naturally occurring carbon-dioxide (Co2), which is a bi-product from the fermentation process, specifically the action of the live yeast on the sugar during the fermentation.
- The average pub spends over £70,000 per annum on locally sourced goods and services.
- Over 1/3 of the UK's barley crop are bought by UK brewers', who are also major buyers of English hops.
Draught Keg Bitter

- Over 20 draught bitters are available through JV Trading.
- The draught bitter and stout sector makes up around 23% of UK beer market.
- On average, the UK consumes 16 million pints of beer everyday.
- The top 5 draught bitters in the on-trade sector are all Nitrokeg beers, (dispensed by mixed gas = 70% Nitrogen and 30% Co2) as opposed to the standard Co2 dispense method. This creates a smoother taste and texture to the beer, which indicates the success of the method of serving since it's introduction in the mid 1990's.
