Established in 2020 in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic it's safe to say things were not plain sailing getting things off the ground, it took time for us to learn the brewery and all it's quirks as well as try and establish a brand that would do justice to the amazing recipes and beers we had planned. We arrived at the name 'Little Mesters' and instantly knew we had found what we were after. The name and logo are a nod to the Little Mesters who were undoubtedly the backbone of Sheffield’s cutlery and tool making industries of days gone by.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines. Clear very dark brown. Decent tan foam. Nose has light roast malt and light roast coffee. Some bitter chocolate. Hint of vanilla. So everything present and correct then. Taste is light sweet with decent roasted malt vinous bitterness. Fairly light bodied and quite drying. Light to moderate bitter finish. Sets off great but the promised richness and warmth was never happening. Still smashed it down mind you so there is that. Good to see another Sheffield brewer doing solid work.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines. Little Mesters now has the brewer from Grizzly Grains. And on this evidence it shows. Hazed gold. Thick dense lasting white foam. Looks boss. Nose has rye like grain. Chalky mineral. Peach and plum stone. Light yeasty bread. Like a sourdough thing. Taste is semi sweet with a mineral dryness. Light floral fruity hop bitterness. Lovely mouthfeel here. Foamy and bright. Clean crisp finish. Pretty much bang on for style by a lad who needs to know how good he is at his game.

Keg half at Sheffield CAMRA Beer Festival. Pours near clear amber with beige foam. Aroma: malt, caramel, red berries, mild pine. Light to moderate sweet with milder bitterness. Medium body with soft carbonation. Fair rather than decent.

Can from Leah's Yard, Sheffield. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aromas of coffee and chocolate. Taste is more of the same. Standard gear, but all right.

Can bought from Leah's Yard, Sheffield. Pours hazy yellow to orange with a thin white head. Aromas of white peach and citrus. Taste adds some green salad bitterness, pithy citrus. Light bitter finish.
