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.

375 ml bottle, batch one. Pours a orange hue with a medium white head. A big sour oak and strawberry nose. The flavor is sharp lactic notes, bigger oak, tannins, fresh sweet clear strawberries. Very flavorful. Lovely sour. A bit of funky notes but clear lactic sourness. Awesome.

On tap at Cascade, pours a clear blonde with a white head. Aroma brings out Belgian yeast and biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with biscuity malt, Belgian yeast and a hint of fruity esters. Nicely made, though not exactly authentic. Decent.

On tap at The Growler Guys - PDX, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out saison yeast, fruity esters, and crackery malt. Flavour is very estery, with candied sugar and fruity esters. Inauthentic but it's okay. Meh.
