PRODUCTION & BREWERY
CRAFT BEER vs. REGULAR COMMERCIAL BEER
Craft beer cannot be explained without first talking about regular commercial beer.
Regular beer is bottled in huge quantities in macro-commercial breweries. The main concern is low cost and speed, not quality. Macro breweries are less likely to choose premium ingredients. For example, while craft breweries typically use high quality hop pellets in their beers, commercial breweries use hop extracts/concentrates, which are a fraction of the price of hops.
Commercial beers are almost always pasteurised for stability. While pasteurisation ensures a long shelf life, the rapid heating and cooling during the pasteurisation process is not good for the flavour of the beer as it tends to lose aromas and ‘flatten’ the flavour.
Most commercial beers are also filtered. Filtration helps stabilise the beer and gives it a polished, clear appearance.
However, each time a beer is filtered, it loses a little of its flavour. Unfiltered beers, on the other hand, offer more complex flavours and aromas.
At à santé, like most craft breweries around the world, we strive to create a variety of excellent beers using the highest quality ingredients and rich flavours.
