WELCOME TO CASK MARQUE
THE INDEPENDENT AWARD FOR PUBS SERVING GREAT QUALITY CASK ALE
Since 1997 Cask Marque has been ensuring that the cask ale you drink in pubs in the UK is in perfect condition.
Our 50 qualified assessors make over 20,000 visits to pubs each year in England, Scotland, Wales, Europe and even America to check the temperature, appearance, aroma and taste of Britain’s favourite drink.
Visit a Cask Marque accredited pub and you are guaranteed to receive a great pint of cask ale.
Find out how pubs get their accreditation in our blog.
