What is cask beer?
Cask beer, AKA “real ale”, is an English tradition. Casks are like kegs, in that they are metal and contain beer, but they are different in two major ways:
1. Cask beer is conditioned / carbonated inside the cask, similar to how champagne/homebrew is carbonated inside the bottle. In cask beer, this results in lower carbonation levels.
2. Cask beer is served at warmer temperatures, (55ºF, versus draft beer, typically served at 38ºF) allowing more flavor to come through. This is what people mean when they say the English drink warm beer. It’s still chilled, but less than draft beer.
Try a hand-pulled cask beer here, today. It’s a rarity these days, and it’s the most English way to drink beer without resorting to hooliganism.
