Commercial Description:
Little Creatures was born to make a pale ale…a specific style of pale ale, a style that we are absolutely passionate about and one that we believe displays great balance of flavour and refreshment…complex yet highly drinkable. The beer's character is driven by the use of fresh whole hop flowers. Hop Flowers are carefuly selected that are bursting with aroma and contain all the essential oils and acids that deliver an uniqe flavour experience. Drink a few pints of this beer and you'll soon become one of us…a certified "hophead" craving those crisp citrus flavours of grapefruit and passionfruit and maybe a bit of honey, all backed up with a good balance of bitterness. If you're wondering what on earth malt or hops actually are then click on the two hop characters to the left and find out more. It's not just the hops that make Little Creatures Pale Ale what it is though. Selected malts are kilned in small batches to our specifications and are used exlusively in our pale ale. Two different yeasts are used to both ferment and bottle condition the beer. The latest technology and equipment is used to maintain absolute quality control and one of the main ingredients in the pale ale has got to be the amount of passion that it takes to produce a seriously good beer...we live for it! From brewing to release, a batch of pale ale takes about six weeks, allowing for two weeks conditioning in the bottle after packaging. No artificial preservatives or additives are included, just great ingredients.

Cloudy amber in colour with a large frothy white head. Fruity aroma. Medium bodied. Sweet, passion fruit flavour. Hoppy. Dry, bitter finish. A very nice and enjoyable beer.

330 ml bottle, now available in Norway (Vinmonopolet, bestillingsutvalget). Imported to Europe by Hamana Ltd. Herts, England. Bottle conditioned. ABV is 5.2%. Golden colour, nearly clear (just a faint haziness), rich head. Lovely hoppy aroma, notes of citrus and tropical fruits. The flavour is distinctly hoppy but not too bitter, citrus again, on a base of moderate but nice malty sweetness. A very nice pale ale!

Another great beer from the Little Creatures stable, you can get this pale ale and the pilsner straight from the vat at the Fremantle brewery, worth doing

Tasted 10 des -07. A nice promising aroma with a nice sharp citrusy start and a piny/floral finish? A very good flavor with some floral notes and a tingling, bitter mouthfeel. Almost an IPA. Long aftertaste

330 ml bottle. Amber colour. Crystal clear. Some minor bubbles rising to the surface. Tall coarse fluffy white head. Bold citrusy aroma with a strong piney finish. Crisp, and not at all harsh, hop bitterness. Hints of grassy and flowers. Piney. High carbonation level. Rich maltiness with some residual sugars. Very nice pale ale. Extremely drinkable. Reminds me a little of Goose Island IPA.

Bottle, november 07 at Oz Bar, Edinburgh. Golden, dry with some citric hoppy notes and a dry finnish. Medium mouthfeel, hoppy, spicy aroma. Nice, dry but a bit lacking amercian pale ale.

Bottle from my local indy. Pours a hazy orange colour, nice head on it. Fruit and slightly floral on the nose which follows to a hoppy and very likeable taste in the mouth. Finishes with fruitiness and some hops, pretty good.

’one night stand’ beer!!!!! This beer has a great taste but I only enjoy the first bottle, the rest I have to force down. This beer has a very rich fruity flavour. Spoke to fellow bottle shop staff and all but one agree.
