GREENE KING CASK PINS – now AVAILABLE –

What are pins?

Pins are smaller containers for cask conditioned ale. Containing 4.5 gallons of ale, they are half the size of a traditional 9 gallon rkin. This means you only need to sell 12 pints a day to maintain quality (rather than 24 when using rkins), which is vital for keeping your ale drinkers happy.

Why and when should I use pins vs firkins?

There are 3 reasons to stock pins:

1 2 3

To add cask ale to your line up.

To broaden your range of ales.

To offer cask ale during quieter times of the week.

Pins are not always the best option for your venue

If you sell a full rkin every 3 days you do not need to switch to pins – however, you may want to add more choice to your range and pins are a great way of doing that.

Seasonal casks available in pins and firkins
