Good to see it's moving to a larger venue, shame I'm gonna miss it again

Tickets were supposed to go on sale today and Volo twittered as much yesterday but two hours later they twittered that they'd be closed for the holiday.

Are we to assume that tickets go on sale Tuesday at opening at 2:00?

I believe tickets are being sold exclusively (or at least mainly) online this year. So presumably ticket sales will be launching at caskdays.com sometime today.

Tickets are available at the web site you mentioned now.

Once again I wish I could make it...but alas I will likely be on the west coast. Almost feel like buying one just in case I book work there around that date.

I bought a ticket for both sessions! Can't wait. Hope to rope a couple of non-beer believers into getting tickets too.

I'm going to the evening session with fellow beerophiles. First time I'm going.

Seems to be very little chatter about this upcoming cask-a-palooza!

I'm still recovering from Toronto Beer Week! I am looking forward to it though.

Any word on the Cask Days preview events? I just blocked off the whole week, just in case.

Aye, that reporter has his own special barstool at Volo.

Nice article.

Sad to be missing Cask Days this year

In addition to the regular assortment of ales that you would expect, there are some truly interesting one- off brews being put together: Liquorice Porter. Cinnamon Pumpkin Ale. Mint and Chocolate Stout.

Cinnamon Pumpkin Ale? Next you'll tell me someone will come up with a Nutmeg Pumpkin Ale, or an Allspice Pumpkin Ale! Madness! Truly interesting indeed.
