Hi Patrick, I will be there this week (I am now based in VIC) - I will check out the boards and get them to correct - I think we have been through the hops about 50 times, but then the boards get redone and someone puts the old stuff back up.... something about the left hand and the right...

Hi Guys, At the brewery we have been discussing this and are thinking this could be a combination of things - either beer residue not being rinsed adequately around the crown seal, or some sort of complex oxidation reaction with the hops. We don't see this in the product when we release to the...

Hey, Just thought I would put the word out there. Not sure what happened to the Hophead email, but the Oatmeal Stout is out! I know the Fremantle crew are having in the handpump right about now. At the Dining Hall in Fitzroy there are 7 kegs which will probably be gone by the end of next...

Hey, I had a look at this today. Gonna be a nice little stout - subtle roast and hop aroma, bitterness there, high-ish final gravity which makes the balance quite nice. Can't wait to taste the final product. Hope all enjoy it! Cheers, Alex

Hey, We used around about that same quantity of crystal. Probably a touch less chocolate malt - tried to get the colour without getting too roasty. Rye was a fair bit less than that - but did also include some CaraRye..... We hadn't brewed with rye before, but I think it did give the beer a...

Hey Guys, Yes, indeed the Stout was judged yesterday - there were 10 judges, all quite official like and in fact the highest scoring beer from round 1 was in fact selected as the winner in round 2. So congrats Ben! We have never brewed a stout at LC (and I have only ever brewed homebrew stout...

Hey, List is now on our website - https://www.littlecreatures.com.au/Happenin...menu-id-76.html - beer is leaving on trucks tomorrow for the east. Just depends on when your local wants their stock as to when its available, so best check with them (I think deliveries will commence from...

Hey Guys, Confirming that the Brown Ale is pouring at the LC venue in Fremantle, and will be heading around the country on truck on Friday (so will start hitting the stores next week). I am pretty happy with it; little bit malty, lots of hops (well, I think), bitterness up there..... Pretty...

And there you go..... should start hitting shops in the next couple of weeks.

Hi Guys, The final gravity of the beer ended up far higher than we intended - one interesting bit about doing one-off batches as no doubt everyone on this boards knows about! So basically the high FG dulled the IBU's quite a bit. Stock is around 3months old now; if any are left then the...

Yes, Tassie will be on the list! A little bit of IPA made it down there, but now sure how much. I used to work in Tassie, so always in the back of my mind.....

Hey Guys, Nice to see this one still going..... and as much as we try, I know we can't be everything to everyone, but glad there are plenty of crew that have liked this one. And to confirm, the next one is coming out in mid-June. Brown Ale (American style) with a focus on Australian hops...

Hey Guys, For anyone in Perth: 1) today (Friday 23rd April) we are tapping two final kegs of IPA from 4pm to 6pm - all sales of this beer is going to a charity - Conservation Volunteers, specifically for their "wild futures" program. www.conservationvolunteers.com.au/wildfutures/ 2) just saw...

Hi Fourstar, I sent you a message. I am distressed to see your post, though.... I am chasing some more details from the bottle (if you still have it). Cheers, Alex

Yes, we have been throwing more and more hops in the Pilsner. I am stoked with how it has been tasting. If anyone can get to the brewery or one of our draft accounts, have a go.... I'm not saying it is going to be the most hoppy Pilsner you have ever had, but me, along with all of the brewers...

Hey Guys, Great to see some good debate going on about our IPA. Could have been hoppier? Probably.... Could have also achieved a little more attenuation and that bitterness would have screamed through (it finished at about 1.016 - you do these things once and sometimes they just make their...

Hi Guys, The beer was indeed $49 a carton at the brewery. Unfortunately we don't have any control over pricing in the market. I can say that pricing such as $100 a carton was not our recommended retail price..... Hope whoever was able to purchase some enjoyed it! Cheers, Alex

Hey, We are trying to get better at having some local events in Perth. I said in another post we are working on getting our communication a bit better. I know the guys running the cellar door wanna do something at least once a month. Will keep you posted. Cheers, alex

Next one will probably be brewed early June for early July release.... Something with lots of malt and lots of hops is on the cards....

Hey Guys, The list (which was pasted above) is on our website. I think you can join up to the hophead email list somewhere on the website. The email updates are something that have been few and far between, but we are gradually getting better at it...
