A cask only beer brewed to be poured exclusively from firkins, either via gravity from the bar top or through a beer engine. This traditional British ale is authentic cask conditioned beer with a smooth malt profile balanced by a subtle hop presence. Dry -hopping in the cask produces an enticing hop aroma in this quaffable session ale.

Cask at Pizzeria Paradiso Old Town Alexandria. Poured a slightly hazy orange color with a big pillow froth head. Aroma is light earthy notes, hops, biscuit touch. Flavor was some earthy hops, nice light bitter malts. Crisp, pretty easy to drink. Very sessionable.

Johnny Brenda’s, Philly cask ($6): Pours an orange colour with a short lived white head. Aroma is of toffee and malt. This is a subtle beer, but it is superbly done. Nothing intense here, but perfect balance and perfect texture. Mildly bitter and ever so slightly sweet.

A dark amber ale with a thin white head. A light caramel malt aroma with light vegetable notes. In mouth, a rather boring ESB with light malt, watery and flat, some nutty notes, light metallic hops. Boring. On cask at the People’s Real Ale Fest, Clarke’s Ale House, April 30 2010.
