TORONTO, ON – The annual Cask Days festival – taking place this year at Toronto’s Brick Works on October 27th and 28th – has become one of Canada’s most successful and well-regarded beer events, and part of that success comes from the preview happenings that the organizers present each year.
The Cask Month preview series for 2012 officially kicked off last weekend with a Cask Days pavilion at Beau’s Oktoberfest in Vankleek Hill, but there are plenty of other cask-themed events planned to take place in Toronto in the weeks leading up to the main event, including:
- Monday October 8th: Cask Days at The Brewer’s Backyard
- Thursday October 11th: Great Lakes Project X Cask Days Edition
- Saturday October 13th: Cask Days at Bellwoods Brewery
- Monday October 22nd to Wednesday October 24th: Traditional English Ales at barVolo
- Thursday October 25th: Half Pints Cask Take Over at barVolo
- Friday October 26th: A Night With Howe Sound Pumpkin Eater at barVolo
More details about all of these events can be found on the Cask Days website.

- Greg C. is drinking a Feels Like Friday by Royal Canadian Mead at King & DufferinBuckwheat honey sits in good balance on a cider-like base. But as with most hopped ciders, I question if hops are really needed in a mead.
- Greg C. is drinking a Daywalker by Rainhard Brewing at Duke's Refresher + BarSeems lighter than I remember in colour & body. Still packed with flavour though. Nice lingering lemon peel & pine notes.
- Greg C. is drinking an Edelhell by Hacker-Pschorr at Otto's BierhalleI’ve been getting into a lager groove lately, mostly locals, but it’s good to revisit the classics once in a while. Prost!
- Greg C. is drinking a Mind On My Honey by Siren Craft Brew at Collective Arts BrewingAt Liquid Art Fest. Honey & smoky chilies in an Imperial stout sounds like a train wreck but this beer pulls it off beautifully.
- Greg C. is drinking a Proto 31: Imp Stout W. Cardamon & Tonka Beans by Brewski at Collective Arts BrewingAt Liquid Art Fest. A whole helluva a lot of cardamom up in here. That’s ok, I like that. Drinks frighteningly easy for its abv.
