I attended the cask tasting Thursday featuring Big Bolt American Pale Ale from Aviator Brewing. It was held down at the Raleigh Flying Saucer location. The Bourbon barrel characteristics were apparent in this beer combined with the beer engine for serving that gave it a creamy head you expect with cask ales. The smooth pale ale was a crowd pleaser that night.

But if you missed out on the experience fear not, because you can get to try the same beer at their brewery and taproom today at 2pm. So if you have been putting of checking out the brewery this should be the day.
