The Atlanta Cask Ale Fest, 2013

I went to the

Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting - ClassicCityBrew

about 3 weeks ago now. Totally forgot to post about it here. It was the 9th Annual Event and a bit pricey @ $42 plus service charges. The Beer was excellent though. Lots of fun people as well. I had very intelligently got a hotel room down the road just north of the perimeter from the event. I was a bit bummed that they didn't make special glasses for the event, the glasses that they did give away, Peak Brewing, didn't even have a beer @ the event. This event is a bit special though since the beers are actually "bought" and not donated by the breweries. Therefore, the quality and rarity of the beers are very high. Met quite a few of the brewers, the dude from O'Dempsey and Jailhouse where there. The folks at the event were WONDERFUL and I had a GREAT time. Even saw a friend who was working @ the event, Alyssa from the John's Creek Taco Mac, now a manager trainee @ the Duluth store. The event was from 3pm to 6pm and I didn't waste one minute not drinking beer. At the end I had some dinner upstairs @ the Taco Mac and then went downstairs to the Fred and had another fantastic beer, the Clown Shoes Silent Night.
