NERAX is organized by CASC, the Cask-Conditioned Ale Support Campaign. CASC
is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to boosting awareness of and demand
for Real Ale in New England.
The New England Real Ale Exhibition, benefiting the VFW, is held each spring
at the George Dilboy Post, Davis Square, Somerville, MA.
NERAX 2010 is our 14th Festival. As in 2009, we plan on offering over 80
firkins of Real Ale. Half U.K. beers from England, Scotland, and Wales; and
half American beers from New England. All the beers are cask-conditioned,
served by gravity or hand-pump.

CASC thanks you all for making NERAX so popular.
The sales of the limited number of advanced admission tickets
is now closed. However there will be a Large Number of admission tickets available at the door for every session.
Unfortunately there are times when we have more customers than we have capacity in the hall.
At our busiest times on weeknights, individuals who fail to gain entry by 6:30 p.m. may face a wait of 90 minutes.
On the other hand we rarely if ever have lines after 8:30 p.m. on weeknights.
This means latecomers can walk right in.
Similarly at our busiest times on Saturday, the wait may be even longer.
We expect there will be space in the hall after 5 p.m. on Saturday,
allowing latecomers to join us.
Bear in mind that with the wide array of American, British and German beers this year,
we will be adding new beers to every session and providing an
interesting selection of real ales throughout the festival
to the bittersweet, hoppy, malty end.
For further inquiries during festival hours, you may call the Line Status Hot Line at
(207) 615-9660.
For those of you that have any questions about ticket sales, whether it's about at the door sales or advanced admission to the festival, please send them to sales@nerax.org.
