Promoting Your Award

Cask Marque stands for:
  • Excellence in the service of cask ale.
  • Awarded to the licensee rather than to the pub.
  • Jointly funded by brewers and retailers.
  • Inspections made twice a year.


  • “Good cellar management is the key to serving cask ales in their prime. Cask Marque will be invaluable to customers, retailers and brewers alike.” Paul Wells, Chairman, Independent Family Brewers of Britain

  • “Cask ale is the lynch-pin of our pub tradition and Cask Marque’s success will underwrite the future of both ale and pubs”. Nick Bish, Chief Executive, The Association of Licensed Multiple Retailers

Look out for the Cask Marque Plaque. This guarantees beer quality in the outlet and the opportunity to TRY BEFORE YOU BUY.
