While I first saw this over at Yours for Good Fermentables, the real credit needs to go to Alex Hall. Alex has been keeping a Running Database of all the places in North America where a thirsty traveler can get their hands on a pint of real Cask-Conditioned Ale. Recently, that database has been outfitted on Google Maps as a format that can be easily shared. Very cool.
I took the liberty of embedding Alex's map below as a way to spread the useful resource to all those who happen to read this blog. Take a moment and check out your local scene - are there establishments serving Real Ale in your neighborhood? Even better, if you know of a bar/pub serving cask ale that is not on the map, please contact Alex and share the information.
Support Real Ale - thank thank the establishments serving cask-conditioned beer for by ordering a few pints and keeping the tradition alive.
Slainte!

"In the US and Canada, cask-conditioned beer does survive - but only in certain bars renowned for serving top quality and unusual beers from domestic and foreign 'micro' breweries."
