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.

Big sweet grapefruit hop aroma (cascade hops?). Somewhat cloudy appearance with decent white head that stands nicely. Plenty of citrusy hops up front in the flavour with a nice toasted malt character and a pleasant lasting bitterness and a touch of sweetness. Nice dry finish. Refreshing body and nicely carbonated. This is a fine American Pale Ale. Thanks, mutant! Bottle.

12 oz bottle, snifter. Toated light bread malt (L); flowery, citric, earthy hops (M); honey aroma. Deep golden body. Med-lightly sweet flavor becomes a lightly sweet, moderately bitter finish. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. The bottom line is: down under has it good.

A good strong hoppy flavour. Slightly malty flavour and very easy drinking. A fairly tasty pale ale.

This is a great pale ale. Reminds me alot of Sierra Nevada. A crisp clean hop taste, some pine and peaches/pears. A sweetness is present all the way through, with a bitter aftertaste and finish. A great session pale, and I am glad I finally got to try this one. Thanks to Choos!

Millions of peaches, peaches for me, millions of peaches, peaches for free! Yup, that's the aroma; sweet, fresh peaches. It's an amber gold brew. The flavour is quite full, more peaches with a hint of bitterness. Nice brew, cheers Mutant!

Little cloudy with some mild carbonation that lasts a long time. OK lacing. Very very very nice nose. Solid but still reasonable hoppiness. Getting lemon and floral tones. Nice and dry, but not killer dry. Very refreshing, very good beer.
