Having cast their net towards the fields of Southern England for their last Single Batch release, this time Little Creatures has taken a hop and a skip to Germany to create the classic Mí¤rzen style. Blending four malts with Czech Saaz, NZ Pacifica & US Willamette hops, they've created a strong lager like those originally produced in Germany in March (Mí¤rzen is the German word for March) to last through the hot summer months when brewers couldn't brew beer due to the high amount of bacteria in the air. The Little Creatures version has been slow fermented and lagered for just over five weeks and is described as "a rich, strong lager with subtle noble hop aromas from the late Saaz additions, lots of firm bitterness on the palate, while rich malt characters wrap it all into balance, providing a full mouthfeelâ?.
