About
Welcome to Little Mesters Brewing, we are a micro brewery and tap room in the brewing heartland that is the 'Steel City' of Sheffield. Our aim is simple 'to brew great tasting beers accessible and enjoyable for everyone'. We are committed to producing only quality beers using the best ingredients. From lagers to imperials, don't worry, we've got you covered.
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 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. Xmas gift of the missus. Mostly clear pale yellow gold. Slim sturdy lasting white foam. Light dry malt. Whiff of sourness. Hint of lemon pith. Taste is dry and lightly bitter with a lemon juice sweetness on the lips. Light and crisp overall. Brisk burp inducing carbonation. Dry light bitter finish. Decent Kolsch.

440ml can from Mitchell Wines Meadowhead - slightly foggy yellow body with a solid white head. Nose is citrus with a bit of pine and spruce in there. Good tangy tropical fruit and citrus in the mouth, good long finish. Decent quality 👌
