So here we are at a local microbrewery called Ketch Brewing and I thought I would find out what's going on here. What's up with Ketch brewing? We basically are owned by a larger restaurant. We brew all the beer that served at those restaurants as well.... Hold up, hold up. So you make the beer for the restaurants? Correct, we make beer for several other restaurants in the city and we also get to experiment and put beer on sale here that you can't get other places. OK, and how many different varieties of beer do we have available right now? Available right now we have seven on tap. Usually we will have more than that, but right now this is basically split into lighter beers and darker beers and IPAs. OK, so speaking of the styles of beer, uhh, what have we got going right now? Right now we have a Kolsch. A Kolsch is a light beer it's very flavorful it's good for summertime, good for the heat over the summer, this is been a really hot summer and that's the type of beer that's very refreshing is very good to drink when you're outside with friends and summertime. Aha.. Kolsch sounds good. OK, what’s next? What's next? Up there we have a pilsner. A pilsner is another light German style beer. Pilsners are going to be very clear and very crisp; ours is no different. It is very true style is very well-brewed and it’s done with all German ingredients. OK, and then I see we've got a lager. Correct. What’s the difference between a lager and a pilsner? The real difference between lager and pilsner is lager versus ale. So lager has to do with bottom up fermentation versus top down fermentation. Ah that sounds a little technical to me .. and would I be able to taste.. I guess I should taste the difference, huh? You absolutely can taste the difference. Oh oh oh oh! OK, I think I'm gonna put that to the test and I’m gonna have to taste both of them. We’ll do that in a minute, Then I see we have two IPAs and IPAs are basically.... IPA stands for India pale ale. And an India pale ale is known for being bitter and full of flavor. People like to drink IPAs. quite frankly. because they're fun to drink. You get a lot of flavors from them and they're very strong. Very strong smelling, very strong tasting, they’re delicious overall, ours is especially fruity, so lots of pineapple, citrus, blueberry notes from our IPAs. OK, so, it seems like you guys specialize in lighter beers. I don't see any, any uhh stouts, or any... Well I wouldn’t speak so fast because we are working on a stout currently and that will come out in the winter time. I'm not sure exactly what month, maybe November or December time frame. OK, so we’ve got a stout to look forward to! All right, well thanks for your help I think we're going to just stop the podcast now so I can taste some beer! Sound good, cheers!
