The Caribbean has been a dream destination for Germans for decades: we dream of endless beaches with powdery white sand, palm trees reaching into the azure sky, sun loungers in shady spots, crystal clear water, tropical plants and a coconut with a straw. But the Caribbean has a lot more to offer: you can do all kinds of water sports there, a multitude of small islands invite you to explore, Cuban rum and cigars tempt you to spend a cozy evening together, the region has an incomparably diverse ecosystem with rainforests, reefs, coasts and an abundance of flora and fauna, you can stroll through the colorful cities, listen to local music and treat yourself to the unique Caribbean cuisine. The right beer to accompany doubles, pepperpot and seafood comes from the CARIB Brewery.
The brewery from the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago dates back to a time when the main income of most residents was based on the cultivation and processing of sugar and palm oil. The Caribbean Development Company was founded to provide a little more financial stability and diversity. This company brought out its first beer in 1950. The brew was called CARIB Lager and laid the foundation for beer production. Five years after it was founded, the brewery was split off from the rest of the company and given its current name. In its early days, the CARIB Brewery had just seven employees, but that quickly changed. The good beer spread like wildfire throughout the Caribbean and its output steadily increased. With the help of large brewing groups, the company started exporting in the 20th century and even opened branches.
With its beer, the brewery wants to reach its compatriots all over the world and give everyone else a piece of the Caribbean way of life. The CARIB Brewery's range includes light-hearted brews that, with their light, fluffy character and tropical flair, go perfectly with the country's cuisine. The brewery's very first creation is still brewed: the popular CARIB Lager helped the company achieve its current success and is still its flagship. In addition to fine beer, sustainability is a major concern for the company. Recycling and deposit bottles ensure that the glass does not end up in the trash but can be reused. In addition, the delivery vehicles are powered by gas and efforts are constantly being made to make the brewing process more resource-efficient. Reducing CO2 emissions is also a focus.
Fancy a vacation? Let the flavors of the Caribbean take you on a delicious short trip!
