About Carlsberg (Malta)
Carlsberg sold in Malta is brewed, packaged and distributed by Farsons under an exclusive licence it secured in 1978, a partnership the 2026 annual report describes as now exceeding 40 years. The beer is made at Farsons Brewery rather than imported, and the company treats the arrangement as evidence of its brewing capability. The Carlsberg name itself belongs to the Danish group, not to Farsons.
