Cask Conditioned Beers
Pale Ale - English
Extra care is taken to create and dispense our traditional Cask beer. Cask Conditioned beers are allowed to go through a secondary fermentation in small casks "firkins", developing natural carbonation inside the firkin without the use of extraneous carbonation or modern serving techniques that carbonate and "push" beer with compressed CO2. We serve our cask beers in the traditional English style, hand pumped through a beer engine at cellar temperature: 48-52 degrees fahrenheit. The cask process imparts lower levels of carbonation, which elevates malt flavors, and gives the beer a unique character and softer mouth feel. All fresh beer is perishable of course, but Cask Conditioned beer is highly perishable and each firkin is typically at it's peak for just a few days- so we try to turn them out quickly, and they usually go pretty fast- still, we usually have 2 cask offerings on tap. Third Street Aleworks was one of the first breweries in California to bring back the traditional technique of cask conditioning, and we have been practicing the art for almost two decades. Try one out sometime at the bar- it's like a beer lovers' time machine.
