Nah, he's just a drunk doing a shift for the night to earn some beer tokens for the following day.

Just the breakfast session for me. Would love to do at least one other session, but couldn't fit it into the schedule.

And he calls me a drunk!!!

Anyway, I just looked at the cask days site again, and the beer list has been updated since I last saw it. Instead of a vanilla beer Cameron's are now bringing Jack&Coke Barrel-Aged Dark Ale. As I noted in another thread, Trafalgar have also replaced Pickled Corpse with Smoked Oatmeal Stout.

Does anyone have any idea what a the Peanut Butter and Jam Ale from Hockley Valley is? My guess would be a porter or stout, but I'm not sure.

They just had a cask of this at the Toronto Wine and Spirit Festival at the Berkeley Church the other week. Good stuff. It was their dark lager infused with vanilla.
