How many Peets does it take to run a brewery? Kettlerock Brewing in Peachtree Corners, GA is a family affair.  When patriarch Stephen Peet retired in 2019 he figured the easiest way to relax was to build a brewery, and bring the whole crew with him.  Stephen and Sterling Peet joined us on the show this week with Diana, Christa, Taylor, and Devon Peet holding down the fort.  That's a lotta Peets. Stephen tells us the focus of the brewery is community, nature, and the environment.  He recalls a slow time and the brewery a a handful of guests sat apart in pairs but soon started chatting with each other, and that's exactly what he hopes Kettlerock fosters. When Sterling isn't brewing, he's a rocket scientist at Georgia Tech's Space Systems Design Laboratory.  He shares some of the projects they've worked on and tells us about CubeSats.  We asked if he's launched any yeast or grain into space and we're disappointed that he hasn't. The Peets were also founding members of the PC Mashers homebrew club.  If you've been  following the show for a while you may recall Jay as the winner of our Homebrewer of the Year in 2018.  Even though they've gone pro they still stay involved with the club. As we chat we get the story behind the Kettlerock name and each beer.  We talk about working with the whole family, and the cozy vibe at the taproom.  Those that think every new beer today is an IPA will be pleased that the taplist is pretty diverse with a Blonde Ale, Belgian Tripel, Kettle Sour, Seltzer, Wee Heavy, Milk Stout, and a couple of IPAs, of course. When you visit the brewery and order the Kettle Sour or Seltzer you'll get a basic, unflavored brew that you can add a flavored syrup to.  As we sampled the sour we realized how long it's been since we've seen one that didn't have fruit in it. Although their beer is only available at the taproom right now they've recently purchased a canning line and will have some available in the market soon.  Maybe we can talk Sterling into turning one of those cans into a CubeSat.
