NERAX
Share
Out of an abundance of caution, as they say, the 2020 NERAX festival scheduled for April 1 to 4, 2020 has been cancelled. The next classic NERAX festival will take place at the South Boston Lithuanian Club probably early in April 2021. We expect to serve about 100 real ales and ciders from the US and UK. In Fall 2018 the 13th annual NERAX North will take place at Knights of Columbus Hall in Salem,

Ruvani de Silva wrote a great article on the US cask scene for CAMRA's Beer Magazine recently and it features some quotes by NERAX cellarman, Ryan Leonard, and even some pictures from NERAX. I apologize if the images are too small to read, so check it out here if you're having difficulty.

In other news, we're ramping up to send a shipment of US cask to the Peterborough Beer Festival in the UK this August, so keep an eye out for that if you'll be there this Summer! 🍻
Thats a wrap! (or reap?)
Thanks to everyone who came out to the 27th annual NERAX this year to enjoy all the exciting beers & ciders we had to offer from the US & UK!
We really appreciate all the support from everyone who came including the many of you who even flew over from the UK! Every session was at or near capacity and we went through more beer & cider than I can recall ever doing before.
Cheers and we can't wait to see you all at the next one! 🍻
NERAX continues tonight!
The session is sold out, but there will be limited room for walk-ins if you don't mind waiting a bit.
Lots of new beers have been put on the stillage and are ready to go! 🍻

Venting day here at NERAX! Cask beer is a living product that produces its own secondary conditioning in the cask, so some of the pressure must be released before tapping and serving can occur. Some are more lively than others, but that's to be expected!
There's still a couple days left to get advance tickets at NERAX.org to sessions that haven't sold out. Some walk-ins will be allowed for the sold out sessions, but we recommend getting tickets ahead of time to guarantee entry.
See you later this week!

ONE WEEK UNTIL NERAX! Ticket at NERAX.org
Glasses this year will finally feature the reaper logo, so don't miss out if you're a die hard NERAX glassware collector.
As always, there will be 100+ casks of US/UK beer and cider along with several stichfass of lager, as well.
We recommend hitting up several sessions if you want to try the most variety given that all the casks are unique one offs. But don't fear the (cask) reaper if you miss out on one. There will be plenty of rare casks still available as we rotate through them during the week.
Cheers and see you all next week! 🍻
