Live Ale Fridays (or weekly cask event)

How many of you know what this is? It represents a new commitment to Real Ale Starting in February every Friday will be live Ale Friday where you can have local cask conditioned ales poured through a real beer engine. This little toy arrived today and I can't wait to fire it up. After changing out our draft system we were left with some beer lines not hooked up to a glycol system so we can pour real ale at 45*, a few pieces of tubing and a beer engine and we are set to go. Local brewer Cannery is setting up a cask to be ready for February 1st, if it is anywhere near as good as the last Just The Tips pine ,spruce and fir tip conditioned Porter we had at Christmas I can't wait.We will have our big cask party on April 6th to celebrate the Okanagan Fest of ale and Murder's Row will feature 5 casks from different B.C. breweries. Tickets will be available in mid March.
Cheers to Real Ale.
