Description
Situated in the picturesque Suffolk countryside, Little Earth Project specialises in brewing historic, farmhouse & wild beers using wild and organically farmed ingredients from the local landscape. The brewery is small but unique, using a variety of sustainable practices to brew small batch, predominantly oak aged beers.
Little Earth Project was established officially in 2016, although founder, Tom, brewed for 7 years previous in a more traditional cask style. He was always interested in brewing more historic and farmhouse styles and decided that, with the changing beer markets, that this would be a good time to try something new with the first beer being brewed in late 2015 and released in late Summer 2016.
Each beer is aged for anywhere between a couple of months to a couple of years, so patience is certainly a virtue. With dreams of building a larger barrel store adjacent to the brewery, we hope to grow and be able to share our little piece of the earth with more across the UK and beyond.

High Wycombe House Warming. Thanks to Dan. Light haze on this paleish gold beer, no head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, modest carbonation. Mellow and slightly earthy brett. Nice tangy lemon, not too sharp. Savoury and bitterish finish. Bitter linger. Interesting.

High Wycombe House Warming. Thanks to Dan. Light haze on this gold beer, a few white bubbles for a head. Smooth and semi dry palate, low carbonation. Tangy dried fruits and savoury bitterish brett. Light semi dry finish. Bitter linger. Nice flavour and hides the abv well but the palate is a bit stodgy.

Bottle from Beer Gonzo. It pours clear bright gold with no head. The aroma is musty, funky, peppery, over-ripe apple, barnyard, oak, vanilla, foamy sweets, earth and windolene (!). The taste is tart, earthy, quite savoury, lemon sherbet, moderate acidity, oak, vanilla, pretty salty, peppery spice, granny smith apple and tannin with a firmly dry finish. Medium body and low carbonation. Pretty unusual/unique stuff. Not bad, if a bit weird.

330 ml bottle from Beer Gonzo, bb 23/3/19. Thanks to Werckmeister.
Copper-brown, hazy body, with a small, fizzy, yellowish head.
Aroma of Brett, citrus, sugar, wood, white grapes, ripe fruits, apples, some basement, subtle alcohol.
Tastes pretty dry, of Brett, citrus, wood, leather, apples, white grapes, some overripe fruits, some candy.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes bone-dry, Bretty, wooden, hoppy, citric, a bit vinous, subtly sweet.
Very nice. The nose is really rich and complex, with lovely Brett and citric hop notes. Taste is a bit too harshly dry for my taste, while still interesting. Except some wooden notes the whiskey barrel isnโt really noticeable. Overall not an outstanding style example, but enjoyable nonetheless.
