Here at The Red Lion, we pride ourselves on delivering the best beer experience in Kegworth, and we’re thrilled to announce a major investment in our ghost-friendly cellar that’s going to take your pint to a whole new level of perfection.
We’re upgrading our entire keg and draught beer system with CQDS+, a cutting-edge technology developed by the innovative team at Innserve UK, jointly owned by Carlsberg and Heineken. This revolutionary system is designed to guarantee you a perfect Red Lion pint, every time you visit.
So, what makes CQDS+ so special? The system utilises food-grade PTFE/Teflon coated pipes that ensure the beer is treated with the highest standards from keg to glass. Throughout the process, your beer is continuously chilled to 3°C by flowing water, eliminating hotspots and inconsistencies that can happen with traditional systems. This means every pint you enjoy will be perfectly chilled and bursting with flavour.
But that’s not all! There are several other incredible benefits of the CQDS+ system:
- Less wastage: We’ll be able to reduce beer waste, ensuring the freshest possible pints for you.
- 30% reduction in energy consumption: The system is more energy-efficient, helping us lower our carbon footprint.
- Average savings of 4,000 litres of water per outlet: We’ll be saving water, making our pub more eco-friendly.
- Reduction in line cleaning chemicals: We’ll use fewer chemicals to keep the beer lines clean, further reducing our environmental impact.
As part of this exciting upgrade, we’re also expanding our draught selection to offer you more variety. We’re increasing our product outlets from eight to TEN, giving you two new choices to enjoy. We’ll be adding Poretti, a premium Italian lager with a rich, full-bodied taste, and Somersby Sparkling Apple Cider for those who enjoy a refreshing cider experience. And that’s not all – we’re also planning to introduce a premium zero-alcohol lager in the New Year, perfect for those looking for a quality non-alcoholic option.
During these works, there will be some minor disruptions. On Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd October, we’ll have a limited range available, including Holsten, Viet, Estrella Damm, and Thatchers Gold. But rest assured, normal service will resume on Wednesday 22nd October at noon, with all eight cask ale lines available throughout the work period.
We know the works might cause a bit of inconvenience, but the improvements will be worth it! Vanessa and the entire team are excited to continue serving you the very best beer, ensuring your experience is better than ever. At The Red Lion, we believe that “Everyday’s a Beer Festival!”, and these upgrades are just another step toward making every pint perfect.
We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Cheers to even better beer!
