This beer:
One of our aims at the Little Earth Project is to take inspiration from the past and use it to make contemporary beers. This IPA has been aged in oak and spiked with a mixed culture of wild yeast and bacteria, undergoing a secondary fermentation much like the beers of two centuries ago. The original IPA’s would have been heavily hopped to protect them on their long journey but in our recreation we have swapped the traditional British hops with Centennial from the US and Nelson Sauvin from New Zealand. This has resulted in a dry, funky beer, created by fermentation with Brettanomyces and complemented by the dank citrus notes from the Centennial and the sharp gooseberry of the Nelson Sauvin.
