Also called real ale or real beer by some, cask ale is brewed from four basic ingredients -- Water, Malted Barley, Hops, and Yeast. These are heated to begin fermentation and then placed in casks, not the kegs we typically see in bar cellars or coolers. The real difference is that keg beers are finished at the brewery. Good or bad, what the brewery puts in the keg is what you get in the glass, or bottle as the case may be.  Cask ales continue the natural fermentation and finishing process in the cask in your favorite pub’s cellar.
