Cask Ale Week 2019

From Thursday 19th September until Sunday 29th September, Cask Ale Week will be taking place across the UK once again.

As Cask Beer is something quintessentially British that we can be rightly proud of and something that many of our talented brewers produce, it really is worth celebrating.

Cask Ale Week is and has been organised by Cask Marque for well over a decade, with the intention of improving awareness and celebrating one of Britain's most famous beverages, which is often misunderstood, but frequently celebrated when brewed and conditioned correctly.

Here on Merseyside, we have a wide selection of pubs and bars that are now keeping excellently conditioned cask beer as it should be, served with care and full of flavour.

On 20th and 21st September, at the start of Cask Ale Week, Liverpool will experience the Modern Cask Festival, to be held at Gibberish Brewpub in the Baltic Triangle.  The mini-festival will see a mix of styles from breweries across not just Liverpool, but the rest of the UK.

The official Cask Ale Week website (link below) has a list of events that are happening across the UK, although there may be some which are missed off or not added just yet, so it may be worth keeping an eye on it!  More locally, below is a list of some of the the excellent places in Liverpool and across the city region that stock a brilliant pint of cask ale, be it best bitter, pale, IPA or a rich deep dark stout.
