We love cask beer here at Away Days Brewing!
Our bright and welcoming taproom in SE Portland has two cask engines with a rotation of classic English Ales available on cask.
Stop by this weekend, we’d love to pour a pint for you in our classic dimple mugs.
New to cask? Cask-conditioned beer, traditionally ale, is a long-standing tradition in English brewing that takes an extra amount of care from the brewer and cellar person. The beer is racked into the cask unpasteurized and unfiltered to further condition. After the beer has fully matured it is served utilizing gravity or a hand pump at a slightly warmer temperature and lower carbonation than typical draft beer. This presentation creates a soft, full-flavored, living expression of a beer that will be unique from cask to cask and even pint to pint.
