Cask Marque, The Challenge
|
The quality of beer in cask is better than it has ever been, but all too often that quality is less than satisfactory at the point of dispense.
Our concerns were underlined by an independent survey of 1,000 pubs (Research). Among its findings, the survey showed that one in five pints sold were of poor quality. |

The Customer demands refreshing, consistent quality. That challenge must be met.
That is why we have introduced the Cask Marque Scheme |

Cask Marque stands for:
- Excellence in the service of cask ale.
- Awarded to the licensee rather than to the pub.

Francis Patton Customer Services Director, Punch Taverns
