Such a wonderful pleasure to hang out with my good friend, Mary Beth Keefe to talk about The Granite Brewery's upcoming 30th anniversary, talk open and closed fermentation, life in brewing (as well as managing stress) and just generally enjoying having a beer with somebody I don't live with IN PERSON! It's a long ep, but we both had an absolute ball.
On this episode of the Four Elements Podcast we sit down for a fantastic chat with Mary Beth, Head Brewer/Owner, of The Granite Brewery and Tied House in Toronto! The Granite Brewery has been family owned and operated, in the same location, since 1991, and continues to brew some beers that were being brewed 30 years ago! Mary Beth tells us all about her experiences coming to the brewery as a kid helping out and how those paved the way for her passion for brewing and beer! Find out about the unique open fermentation style beers that Mary Beth is brewing at 245 Eglington Ave E, and the really cool Ringwood yeast that Granite has been using since opening. Mare mentioned that they are currently on their 1100th pitch of the same yeast! Talk about heirloom beer! We learn about their FVX Series of beers which is their closed fermenter series, including the Brand New Day NEIPA and a recent released Irish Red Ale.

This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy is taking us to Toronto, Ontario. On the show is Stephen Beaumont, an international beer writer from Toronto, Ontario; Jordan St. John, a beer writer and co-author of The Ontario Craft Beer Guide; and Mary Beth Keefe from The Granite Brewery in Toronto, Ontario. An avid traveler, Stephen has found that staying put this past year has helped him rediscover his home beer market. In Toronto, there have been tons of new experiments and innovations, but Stephen also praises brewers' loyalty to classics, including Belgian style beers, brown ales, and saisons. Mary Beth is also a fan of the classics, which may be why she prefers to steer clear of “hype” beers. However, Granite Brewery does a fantastic cask ale called “Cask in a Box,” and Jordan chimes in with the historical context surrounding cask ales and the Cask Beer Festival.While Ontario has tons of different beer styles to offer, Jordan also praises the locally grown hops, which can add unique flavors to beer. Finally, the gang all raise a glass to their favorite Ontario breweries and their wonderful city of Toronto.Photo Courtesy of Stephen Beaumont.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

This is a very old photo of Kichesippi Beer Company. Kichesippi Beer Company just celebrated their 6th Anniversary! Katy (@klwatts) and April (@AThibert) sat down with Paul Meek (@paulmeek613), Co-Owner of Kichesippi Beer Company and chatted about his experiences in beer. Show Notes: One of Paul's first craft beer experiences was Granite Brewery in Halifax (yes, there is a Granite Brewery in Toronto that was opened by a sibling of the original Halifax brewery). The Alexander Keith's 'tourism' brewery is the original brewery where actors take you through a tour in period costumes and do a historical reenactment - it's actually pretty fun. The cans versus bottles debate (cans are better). Why do people choose to move to Ottawa? Kelly, Paul's wife (and Co-Owner of Kichesippi Beer Company) was diagnosed with mitochondrial myopathy and now uses an electric wheelchair. Ottawa loves snow - RIGHT?! Thank you McClelland Premium Imports and Paul for introducing me to Erdinger and so many other yummy beers. You should pour your weisse beers a certain beer - here's how! Go buy one and try it. Do you remember Heritage Brewing and their brands (Sgt Major's, Corporal Punishment..) Many other breweries make craft sodas - Propeller, Nickel Brook There were many great parties had at the brewery and it sounds like there will be more in the future! The famous LCBO Store 10 (Summerhill) fit with tasting bar and growler station.
