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.

Orange amber in appearance in draught form (cloudy if bottled) with good head retention. Medium-bodied with subtle pale malt detectable. Initial bitterness on palate finishing with charateristic floral and citrus notes.

Bronze body with a cream head. Clean and tasty. Sugar, pine, lemon hops. A little drying in the finish. Damn good for an Australian micro. Sampled on draught at the Australian Hotel in Sydney, Australia.

Off-Amber colouring with a nice thick head. Dry, bitter, floral and citric all mesh up to a flavoursome brew. Something you cannot deny yourself.

Bottle: Poured quite a quite cloudy but beautiful orange with a large head that had somelength. Good lacing. Lemony mango aroma with some dired apricot notes. Great hop aroma. Flavour displayed some matured malts and a great refreshing tang. Good body. Excellent beer, definitley Australia’s best at this point.

As a die hard fan of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale--I’ve just found my new best friend down under. Lots of hops on the aroma....love the heavy hand and the signature of the NA Yak hops. Plenty of malt to balance out a long crisp finish. Dry...this is drop goes great with any food you can put beside it.

Possibly the best West Aussie beer that has founds its way to my bar. Wonderful aroma with deep flavor - whether with food or not, this will please.

Flavoursome - powerfully citrussy and fruitty. Smooth, very much a red wine beer - best drunk with food as a compliment.
