Two places that we love in Fairfield, Craft 260 and Harry’s Wine & Liquor, have teamed up to create a killer beer festival! Check out how sick this is: 18 Breweries from Connecticut will be bringing two casks each. The awesome thing about this is that each brewery will start with the same base beer, but both casks from each will be different with spices, hops, and other add-ins. So, it’ll be an interesting experiment to see how breweries can change the taste of a brew by just adding in different ingredients and methods.

The CT Cask Fest goes down on May 31 from 1-5 right in the Craft 260 parking lot with tickets costing $40, cash only. We’re telling you this early because tickets are now on sale at both Craft 260 and Harry’s . . . and they will sell out quickly. And, it’s nice to say that a portion of the proceeds are going to Tap Cancer Out, based out of Stratford. Look at this killer list of breweries:
