Scugog cidery hosting ‘Craft Cask Culinary Event’ September 10

Two Blokes Cider in Seagrave is hosting a Craft Cask Culinary Event at the Port Perry-area cidery on September 10.

Produced by Community Craft Beer Festival, the people behind this year’s Newmarket Winter Craft Beer Festival and the Aurora Craft Beer Festival, the Craft Cask Culinary Event is a celebration of cask beer and cider, artisanal food and culinary experiences all presented within a bucolic working century farm.

Set to celebrate the art of craft through local breweries and producers, the Durham Cask Beer Garden will host a variety of vendors from around Ontario, including Old Flame in Port Perry and 5 Paddles in Whitby, and will feature cask ales – unpasteurized and uncarbonated beer meant to be drank fresh – as well as cider from nearby producers such as Slabtown and of course, Two Blokes.

The culinary experience will take place inside the cider house, consisting of five one-hour sessions that include tastings and teachings in areas such as beer/wine & food pairings.

Live music will also fill the air with the Concert Under The Stars featuring The Wilderness, a separately ticketed show.

Advance tickets for this dog-friendly and kid-friendly event (under 19 get in free) are $12, which includes two beverage tokens. The price goes up to $15 at the door. Tickets for the Wilderness concert are priced at $25.

Two Blokes Cider is located at the Somerville Farm at 21300 Simcoe Street, just south of the village of Seagrave and a short drive north of Port Perry.
