“Are you guys doing Kegs & Eggs in April even though it's Easter Sunday?" OBVIOUSLY. It's one of our favorite days of the month! In addition to Blackfire's breakfast sandwiches, Terra Nova coffee, a special cask release (see below), and all the beers you could ever want with breakfast, we're doing a little something extra. Throughout the building (and on the patio, if the last bits of ice melt by then!) we'll have easter eggs hidden for your hunting enjoyment. Each one contains a discount or a prize, so come with sharp eyes to this month's Kegs & Eggs!

Monthly Cask

April's cask will be our Red Rye Ale, Elver—one of the best styles for cask conditioning. The lower carbonation and warmer cellar temp really enhance the malt flavors of this beer, making for a very different drinking experience than what you get off the taps. These casks have been kicking fast, so show up early if you want to try!

What’s a cask?

With each Kegs & Eggs event, we release a special cask-conditioned beer. You might be wondering, what is a cask-conditioned beer? Also known as a real ale, it’s an unfiltered beer that undergoes secondary fermentation in a cask. This means the beer continues to mature and carbonate in the cask itself, rather than being force-carbonated in the brewery. The result is a beer with a unique flavor profile, softer carbonation, and a “living” feel due to the presence of active yeast.
