Not sure if beer tasting is involved, but sounds interesting.

I think the Victory would be the closest, not sure how long it would take you to walk down Bathurst, though - 15 minutes, maybe?Publican wrote:I'll be there as well. Does anyone know of a close place that would have good beer for a pint or three after Nick's talk?
Also, it's not one of my regular Toronto nights, but I'll try to be there as well...I've wanted to visit the cottage for a long time. I miss it every doors open.

Grapefruit Moon is close, but controversial since the apparently hostile takeover of one of the co-owners. I don't know much, but apparently the vibe has changed...Publican wrote:I'll be there as well. Does anyone know of a close place that would have good beer for a pint or three after Nick's talk?
Victory is the closest big beer bar, 10-15 minutes is about right for the walk.
I'm pretty interested in attending this, assuming my actual history reading/researching/writing doesn't get in the way of my beer history listening/learning.
