00:00I'm with Lee Roach who is the manager at Suds & Soda in Derby. How are you doing Lee?
00:08Very well, thank you.
00:09This is the second beer festival that Suds & Soda is holding.
00:13It is.
00:14Are you excited about it?
00:16Yeah, yeah.
00:17Yeah?
00:18Of course, yeah. We've got some great stuff on this time round.
00:20The last one was great but this one's going to be even better.
00:23Okay. How many beers have you got on tap, on draft?
00:27We've got, there's going to be 20 different taps.
00:31That includes keg, cask, some bag and box stuff.
00:35So there's going to be 18 different types of beer, two different ciders.
00:39And there's also a bottle share programme this time around as well.
00:43There's five different bottle shares that people can get involved with.
00:46Each bottle share is limited to six spaces, I think it is.
00:51And you can just buy your place in the bottle share.
00:56I think some of them start about £6 and then the more expensive ones are £7 a share
01:00because most of them are quite expensive imported bottles.
01:04Okay. So I guess that gives people a really great idea to taste different beers
01:08that they wouldn't usually have.
01:09Oh yeah, yeah.
01:10Stuff that you, unless you're prepared to shell out, you know,
01:14£30, £40, £50 on a bottle of beer to try it, this is the best way to do it
01:19because you only have to spend £6 or £7 and you can try these great beers.
01:22Yeah. Do you have any favourite bottles or bottle share that you want to be participating in Lee?
01:28I'm really looking forward to trying the Cascade stuff.
01:31Okay.
01:33But all of them, all of them are going to be great.
01:35They're all going to be great.
