A What Keg?
You can’t call it Unfiltered Fridays without tapping our monthly unfiltered fass keg! What’s a Fass keg, you might ask? Well, for starters, it’s a keg used to serve unfiltered, naturally carbonated beer taken directly from the fermenter and put in your glass immediately. Like, the same day.
Our Fass kegs are 30 liters in size, about 10 years old, and made of oak. A stainless steel interior prevents the wood from altering the flavor of the final beer.
Fass kegs are not meant for aging or conditioning beer, unlike firkins, which allow the beer inside to go through a second fermentation. Unlike casks, which are meant for serving traditional English-style Ales close to room temp and with low CO2, Fass kegs retain CO2 and are a great vessel for continental European-style beers, such as lagers and wheat beers. You’ll spot ’em fulla Kolsches in Cologne, Germany, and fulla altbiers in Dusseldorf. You may even see ’em from time to time in Munich come Oktoberfest if you ever get over to those parts.
Don’t miss out on another Unfiltered Friday at our Ratskeller! Join us for a night of Minnesota music and beer and get a taste of our unique Fass keg experience. We can’t wait to see you there!
