Description
Crafting mixed culture ale in the beautiful Pacific Northwest
Founded by partners in life and work, Charles Porter and Brenda Crow, Little Beast is a family brewery with a passion for making great beer and sharing it with others.

We craft wild, wood-aged and blended beer naturally with diverse cultures, including Saccharomyces, Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, and wild flora. By harnessing the little beasts that ferment our beer, we capture their untamed beauty and produce farmhouse beers that are diverse in flavor and rare in character.

Bottle from Corti Bros. Pours rose tinted copper with a large frothy near white head. Aroma of tart/cooking cherries with a wood note. Approaching med body. Flavor is tart, woody and cooking cherry. Extremely dry. Tart stands in for bitter. Very good.

Can. The odd premise of this beer is why I bought it, and why I'm a bit scared of it. It has some haze, but it's the unexpected pale blueberry colour that is throwing me for a loop. The aroma speaks to a thin, crackery beer, with a bit of honey. The palate is also disappointing - basic amber ale, underhopped, and the flavours are really timid. It's hard to get anywhere past thin and crackery for me.

Can - this is my last can of the four pack and I’ve kept going back and forth on my opinion of it - it’s definitely an attempt at a Duvel clone, so I’ll give it props for that - the nose pulls this off fairly well - it’s flinty, floral, with some slight honey character and mild peppery phenolics - the alcohol hits a little too hard in the flavor, at times making it lightly medicinal - some nice phenols through the middle - very mild gummy esters - finishes dry and lightly bitter, with some floral touches, but there’s also a lingering alcohol burn on that’s not so pleasant - meh.
