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.
Admin Note: Beer Garden/Tap Room in Portland, production in Clakamas, OR.

Shared with Josh at Festival of Dark Arts 2026 in Astoria, OR.
Fruity, American oak, bold, some nice fruity sourness, low to moderately sweet. Finishes along the same lines with some whiskey notes. Very nice ❤️

On tap at The Beer Junction, pours black with a tiny tan head. Aroma has rich bourbon barrels and marshmallows upfront, with a touch of cocoa and some brown sugar. Flavour is very rich, with big bourbon barrels upfront, followed by marshmallow, dark sugars, and a touch of cocoa. Big bourbon dominates without being boozy, with nice accentuation from the marshmallow. Lovely.

Pint can. Grassy hop aroma with notes of pineapple, grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, floral and pine resiny hop. Pours clear golden colored with a large off white head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with pineapple, tangerine, lemon and floral hop flavors. Finishes dry with grassy hops, grapefruit and some pine resiny hop flavors. Quite good.

On tap at Chuck’s Seward Park, pours a clear pale golden with a tiny head. Aroma has plenty of musty brett, some hay, and earthiness. Flavour has a nice musty brett character, some rustic saison yeast, and some light hay. Dry, musty brett expression, with a good rustic base. Very good.
