Tickets went on sale today for the 5th annual Cask Conditioned IPA Challenge at barVolo.
This year, the event falls on May 4th and 5th–as luck would have it the same fucking weekend I’m scheduled to take a fucking canoe trip with my fucking brothers.
The guys from Volo, who are responsible for some of my favourite fucking beer events and whose bar is one of my favourite fucking places to grab a pint after work, have seen fit to schedule the event–focusing on my favourite fucking style of beer–on the only weekend of the fucking summer that my three brothers and I are all available to get together for a long-planned journey down the fucking Saugeen River.
So, while I’m three hours north of the fucking city, Volo will host an event featuring 32 Cask IPA offerings from some local brewers like Bellwoods, Indie Alehouse, Amsterdam, Great Lakes, and many fucking more. Even fucking new Toronto brewers Left Field Brewery and the nanobrewers at fucking Get Well are getting in on the action to ensure that while I’m paddling my fucking canoe, one of the best beer events of the fucking year will be underway.
If, unlike me, you haven’t already got plans, tickets and more information about the event are available on Cask Days’ fucking website.
History’s greatest monsters.
Second only to Jimmy Carter.
At least you can play your part in judging the final four beers at cask days in October.
