Cask Ale Ratcliffe/Dale Bar 17:13 - Oct 2 with 2260 viewsDaleBars

Hello everyone, I've been considering the idea of introducing another cask ale, which has been suggested here a few times. Currently, we have MPA, which is quite a popular drink. On average, it sells two barrels on Saturday and one barrel during Tuesday matches.

Both bars are served by the same barrel, with two pumps each. There are a couple of options: introduce a new cask for both bars running off the same barrel, which would mean losing MPA entirely, or keep MPA in the Dale Bar and introduce a different cask in The Ratcliffe.

We must take wastage into account; once a cask ale is tapped, we have only five days to sell it. This is why it may sometimes run out at half-time, and we choose not to tap another one. Simply put, we cannot sell another 60 pints within the remaining time, and it won't last until the next home match. With matches scheduled for both Saturday and Tuesday, it might be feasible to attempt this.

Over the past two seasons, we've featured plum pudding at Christmas from a single barrel, and it was well-received. However, I'm aware that there were supporters who missed their MPA.

I prefer to supply both bars from a single barrel, as it's the most efficient way to reduce waste. However, I am aware that this may inconvenience some supporters if they cannot purchase their regular matchday drink, possibly resulting in a less enjoyable matchday experience.

Please let us know your feedback

Thank you

Great communication DB and also useful how the system works and as you point out , keep any wastage to a min.

Is it worth a trial with MPA and a different one available at each bar for the next home game? See what feedback there is from people around buying at different bars and the new drink itself.

Thanks for the explanation of the process too!

Yeah....I'm for that. Try a different one in each bar. I'm an MPA drinker but would probably drink both if the option was there.

Just having a cask ale as an option sets us apart from the vast majority of clubs so thanks for that.

MPA covers a lot of bases and appreciate the difficulty regarding shelf life.

If the bars are upping their game I guess we better up ours and drink a bit more!
