Cask: Dispensing Cask Ale from Barrel to Tap
The beer cask is the traditional barrel used to serve Real Ale, a historic beer style that is dispensed directly from the cask, often via hand pump or controlled gravity pour. Unlike other kegs or tanks, the cask stands out for its serving method and character, very common in pubs and specialist bars where an authentic experience and a pour tailored to this style are sought.
In this collection you’ll find essential cask accessories to set up and maintain a cask beer dispensing system: wooden bungs (porous and non-porous to control air intake), cask taps for serving without a line, check valves (MK4) to stabilize flow and prevent backflow, plus English handpulls/towers such as Angram and maintenance kits like sealing kits for Paragon-type beer engines. Everything is geared towards more reliable service, better control of the pour and Real Ale in optimal condition, for both professional and home use.
