Reminder: Golden Tap Awards Voting

Have you visited the Golden Tap Award's website yet and placed your votes? If not, your running out of time. Voting ends this Saturday August 9th.

As mentioned here early last month, the GTA's are now in their sixth year of recognizing the best in the Ontario brewing industry and the results come directly from you - the drinker.

Voting is simple - simply visit www.goldentap.com and click on the vote now! link. Questions are nicely laid out and offer multiple choice answers and also provides you with the option of submitting something not listed.

Categories range from best microbrewery in the greater Toronto area (GTA), best microbrewery outside of the GTA, best beer (regular or speciality) in the GTA, best beer (regular or speciality) outside the GTA, best pub in the GTA for draught, best pub in the GTA for bottle selection, best pub outside the GTA for draught, best pub outside the GTA for bottle selection, best brewpub or tied house in Ontario.

So get you votes in now - don't miss out. I don't want to sway anyone's vote in any way but try to remember the smallest of the small - like an independent such as the Granite Brewery and Brew Pub who are a fine establishment making terrific English style ales, some cask conditioned.

The awards will be handed out on August 23rd at Beerbistro. Visit Goldentap.com for more information.
