Keg at IMBC. It pours opauqe jet black with a massive foamy tan head. The aroma is perfumed, rich roasted malt, liquorice, funky, brett, plum, date, barnyard filth, raspberry ripple, oak, medicinal vibes, and charred oak. The taste is big, chewy, decent level of bitterness, charred wood, burnt toast, deep tangy fruit character, toothy, funk, oak, whisky, some rawness, toasty, barnyard, tannin, warming alcohol and leather with a drying finish. Full body and fine carbonation. Big and punchy. Fun stuff, plenty going on.

Keg at IMBC 2018, session 3. Pours black-brown with a creamy khaki head. Strong brett character, some tangy dark berries, a little ashy roast, cocoa, manure, farm yard. Medium to full bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Dry finish, warming, further strong, dominant brett character, with bittersweet cocoa, ashy roast and earth in the background. Novel stuff.

Brewdog Shoreditch. Keg. Opaque dark brown beer, tidy pale tan head.. Palate is light and mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. An obvious but not overpowering brety from the get go, mildly savoury. Mellow dark malts interplay with the slightly bitterish brett quite well. Mellow dark fruits. Touch of pine before a bretty finish. Nice job. Some more hops would not have gone amiss, but overall it feels like this is what was intended and not just stumbled to. Little Earth have suddenly become interesting.

Keg at BD Sheps Boost, 26/07/18. Black with a well presented tan cap that dissipates to a swirl. Noae is black peppery spice, charr, liquorice, boozey aroma, funk, Bretted tones. Taste comprises fruit cake, pine needle, dusty hops, vinous tones, aniseed, red berry funk, light dusting of brett. Full bodied, fine carbonation, warming boost with balanced hop bitterness in the close. Solid offering ... lots going on here ... by far the best beer from LEP to date for me and carries off the hefty ABV very well.
