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.

On tap at Little Beast, pours a deep dark amber brown with a small beige head. Aroma has toasted bready malt, caramel, and some brown sugar. Flavour is malty and yet dry, with lots of dry caramel, bready malt, and fermented out brown sugar. Strong and yet surprisingly drinkable. Very good.

On tap at Little Beast, pours a hazy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of lacto, with gentle citrus, wheat, and some passionfruit. Flavour is a yogurt bomb, with lots of lacto dominating; not getting much passionfruit. Simple, not much depth. Meh.

On tap at Aslan Depot, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Aroma is dominated by dank hops, some pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is full of doughy malt, dank hops galore — really pot-like, some pine, and some oils. Dank and oily finish, while being clean. Very good.
