If you attended our first CASK! Social at the Granite Brewery last month, you may have vague recollections of having enjoyed yourself. If you missed it, you get a second chance. We’ll be meeting at C’est What (67 Front Street East, just east of Church) on Saturday, October 17, between 3 and 6pm.
There is no agenda, there will be no speeches, and no fundraising efforts will take place. It is merely an opportunity to get out of the house, gather with like-minded people, and drink very good cask-conditioned ales. That’s as easy as we can make it. Drop in for one, or stay for several. Simplicity itself.
Hope to see you there. (And until someone thinks of a better name we’ll keep calling it the CASK! Social.)
