"Real ale" on P&O Ferries

For over a year now, P&O Ferries have been offering hand pulled beer from t he Marston's range on three of their routes - Dover-Calais, Hull-Rotterdam, and Hull-Zeebrugge. Does anyone here know how the ale is kept? Is it in a temperature-controlled "cellar", or are they using re-rack, or key-keg?

I haven't managed to try it myself yet; the priority for me on the short se a crossing is usually food, and I never noticed a handpump the last time I crossed the North Sea.

It must be a keg.

I think I had one over the summer, might be Marston's fast cask system. Isn't keg, and they'd catch hell serving keg through a hand pump anyway.

Thanks. I'd forgotten about "fast cask". That must be it. Must give it a try the next time I'm afloat.
