Itinerary:

This is my final episode of my Sunday Session TOC series for 2019, which focuses more on the social rather than the outdoors. However, we'll just do this on Boxing Day instead of the normal Sunday.

Based on my 'Hike For A Pint' series, we'll be walking to either a brewery or interesting pub in the city. The group size will be capped based on either reservation size or however many people I think I can get into a location.

For this event, we'll try go to the newly reopened pub Bar Volo, which is near Wellsley & Yonge. The walk will go from Bloor-Yonge Station to the Pub at Yonge and Wellsley for just under 1 KM. If you register for this event, I'm going to ask that you come to the location because you could be taking a spot away from someone on the wait list who otherwise wanted to attend. Also, its a 1 KM hike, so what's the point not coming, right?

I've set the maximum for this event at 25 as this location does not take reservations, but I figure we'll be able to get into the location as maybe everyone else will be out shopping.

The pub has a good variety of drinks, including Lagers, Wheats, Ales, IPAs, Stouts, Sours & Ciders. For those interested in their beer list, 'click here'.
