What is Cask Marque? Well since 1997, Cask Marque (which is an industry, not a CAMRA scheme) has been checking that the ale in subscribing pubs is in good condition according to their criteria. Each year their 60 assessors make over 20,000 visits to pubs in Britain, Europe and the U.S to check the temperature, appearance, aroma and taste of Britain’s favourite drink, including checking out cellarmanship.

The Coach & Horses in Chertsey recently had a change of tenancy, and has achieved Cask Marque accreditation, and we wish them well. On the other hand, the Twynersh at Chertsey and the Cricketers at Rowtown Addlestone have lost their's. Could be a number of reasons, all worth checking out.

Of course we have 100,00+ assessors in CAMRA, and Cask Marque does not just check real ale. Why not check pubs out yourself and score their beers or drop us a line via WhatPub, or via Contact Branch. Cheers!
