Three fresh Little Willow Brewing Company b**rs just hit the shelves, including the very limited Small Batch #1 - only 100 cases for the whole state and we've got 3 while they last! Descriptions from the brewer below...
"Our Small Batch Series will focus on the different variables in the brewing process including water chemistery, hop dosing and placement, yeast selection, and the malt bill.
The goal is to explore the different outcomes that occur when changing each one of these variables one at a time to better understand the impact of these changes on the final b**r.
This first of the series will focus on water chemistry. What I did here was adjust the water to try and push the hops to give more aromatics and flavor in the b**r. With this adjustment you will also notice a change in the mouthfeel and finish.
I really like the way this first one came out. Hops are huge on the nose and the flavor really comes out a lot cleaner and bigger.
Hops used in this b**r are a nice lot of 2025 Citra and 2025 Topaz.
On the nose: I get peach and pineapple
Flavor: Citrus, under ripe peach, and pineapple.
Will Power, 7%
Double Dry Hopped New England IPA
Will Power is a double dry hopped New England IPA hopped with Rakau, Citra, and Galaxy. Huge mouthful on this single, paired with big notes of passion fruit, tropical fruit, and peach. Super smooth and packed with flavor.
And a brand new b**r that I absolutely love.
ME Time, 8.2%
Double Dry Hopped Double New England IPA
ME Time is a double dry hopped double New England IPA hopped with Tropical Fusion, Citra, and Tropical Fusion SubZero Hop Kief.
This b**r came out silky and thick without being overly sweet. The tropical fusion hops brings all the New Zealand energy i was hoping for here with strong pineapple and pine paired with a nice citrus backend. On the finish just a touch of bitterness makes this a full flavored b**r that finishes surprisingly clean!
Cheers everyone!"
Which one are you most excited for?
