The band this week was Mehdi Cayenne Club.

We met up with Paul Meek (@KichesippiBeer), the owner of Kichesippi Beer, at the company’s Ottawa headquarters. It is always fun to do interviews at breweries. It is more of a liquid lunch 😉 We spoke about:
– The history of how Paul came to Ottawa to start the brewery
– His view on the changes in Ottawa
– The great support of Ottawa
– How the name of Kichesippi Beer came about
– What made Paul leave the financial field to start the brewery
– How interesting the brew master, Don, is
– The direction of where Kichesippi will be going

After the break we discussed:
– Some of the events that Kichesippi Beer participates in, including the Ottawa Velo Vogue Fashion Show
– The keg delivery bike made by Tall Trees cycling
– So many synergies in Ottawa, including them with Ottawa Streat Gourmet
– The Harvey and Verns soda
– Their work with JDRF, every growler they sell they donate 50 cents.
Oysterfest at the Whalesbone
– A special beer collaboration for Arboretum festival
– The Calabogie Country festival
– The Barley’s Angels

– Their new app
