Who’s excited for the @aifvf this weekend, besides us? What are ya plannin’ on seein’? • This is culture, ya’ll, thoughtfully curated and brought to your front door step. Don’t miss out! • If you’re in the mood for a film-themed beer during the fest, stop out and try “We’ll Fix It In Post”, our 100% Ohio-grown saison that was supposed to be a lager…but we forgot to order yeast! 😖🤣 So we fixed in in post, like the best directors & editors do. We’re on our last keg, so don’t daddle! 😽🍻🎉

Oh, hey, remember that beer we posted about a few months back, that we were refermenting on over one ton (2000 lbs.) of fresh watermelon, and then conditioning on locally-foraged sumac? It’s ready! 🍻 Just tapped: “JOVIAL COWPOKE”, mixed-ferm farmhouse ale. Brewed with Ohio barley and caramel oats from our buddies at @hausmalts , hopped lightly, and fermented with a kveik yeast in stainless. Transferred onto over one ton of seedless, hand peeled watermelon, where it refermermented with our house mixed cultures of bacteria and wild yeast. Transferred to packaging tank on over 1 lb per barrel of freshly harvested smooth sumac (a lemony flavored seed-berry), and kegged. 5% abv. Moderate tartness and funkiness. Cheers!

The photo composition is not the best ever, but I

The photo composition is not the best ever, but I (Sean) just want to say on behalf of all of the Little Fish team, how glad we are to have Keith Hernstrom on our roster of brewery workers right now! Keith joined us about six months ago, and I don’t want to imagine brewing operations without him. He is incredibly adept at building things and solving mechanical issues. Just yesterday, we were working together on installing glycol lines to the new 20 barrel tanks, and we should have them online by next week! (We’ll let the licensed electricians handle the wiring aspect). • Besides the handyperson and maintenance skillz, Keith has also been training on cellar work and on the brewing platform, loves craft beer, and is always a positive personality to work with! Thanks dude! Please stay at Little Fish a long, long time. 😘🍻

Passionista bottling day 10/7/21. Just a little candid video of another high-tech bottling day at Little Fish! 😂 It’s not fancy, but it actually works great for bottle-conditioned sour beer.

A new beer, and a shiny new set of 20 barrel tanks

A new beer, and a shiny new set of 20 barrel tanks. ❤️ Tapping right now: “THORNINDAL I.P.A.” - Hazy I.P.A made with a unique yeast that @berkeley_yeast developed especially for us and some other talented Ohio brewers to try. • Here’s the story: We have been making some excellent hazy beers with Berkeley’s “Tropics” strain, which is a version of London ale yeast, subtly genetically modified, only adding one gene that can un-bind bound thiols found naturally in malt & hops. These thiols are undetectable to the nose and tongue when bound to proteins, but when freed, they present as a range of flavors and aromas, including passionfruit, guava, lychee, and other highly expressive fruits. • We wanted to see what we could brew up with a kveik yeast that was modified in the same way to release bound thiols, so over the last 6 months or so, Berkeley has been developing and testing a version of Hornindal kveik yeast, and now it’s time to release our first-ever beer brewed with that yeast! We like it. A lot. The base recipe is very similar to You Wanted a Hit. The hops are exclusively Citra and Mosaic. The aroma is rife with passionfruit and guava, citrus, and a touch of “dank”. The body is incredibly smooth and fluffy, with a touch of hop bitterness and spice. Come try this beer made with what Berkeley is calling #hornindaltropics today, and stay on the lookout for breweries in your area that are also releasing Hornindal Tropics beers in the near future (follow the hastag 😉)! Let’s toast to science, innovation, and never resting on our laurels. 🍻🎉
