From Field to Firkin - Blog Discounts

I've been out to Black Creek Pioneer Village to check out the brewery, the newest attraction to the site, and if you haven't had the opportunity to do so yourself now might be the time to start planning a trip.

The people behind the Black Creek Historic Brewery have developed a number of beer/brewing related events that they will be incorporating into the operations of the Pioneer Village, and one that should spark some interest with homebrewers and beer lovers alike is the 'Field to Firkin' events.

'Field to Firkin' will take place every Friday evening in August and September starting at 6:30pm. When all the crowds have gone home (Pioneer Village closes at 5pm) adults are welcome to head into the re-created 1860's historic working brewery to sample the line-up of ales, chat with the brewer and enjoy the confines of the pub with pint and a handful of homemade root chips. Extended tours will also be offered.

The event is priced at $15 per person; however, if you decided to attend one Friday evening just identify yourself to staff as "public reviewers" when calling to order tickets. You will then be asked which blog you read this information on. At this point your tickets will only be $10 a person, all they ask is that you offer feedback at the end of the event. Oh, your first pint will also be on them!

Call 416-667-6295 for tickets.
