a frothing half-litre of cloudy, malty Stiegl Paracelsus Zwickl on the ski-slopes in Kitzbühel

Cask Marque App works a treat, and tells you where to find one!

Been using the excellent Caskfinder app on my iPhone and found it really great. Just turn it on wherever you are and you can choose between a comprehensive list of British craft brewers with their addresses, web sites and contact details, a suggested beer of the week, an engaging beer blog (not as engaging as this one), a list of upcoming beer festivals, a QR beer barcode scanner but most importantly , if you have location services enabled on you smartphone, up pops a local map and you can chose from being directed to your nearest pub serving decent cask ale. Yep, you can follow the map and pretty soon a frothing pint of well-kept ale (guaranteed by the Cask Marque standard and regular inspections) will be sitting in your hand. Time to put the phone away. Enjoy.
