The Little Things have something for everybody
YEAST
ALE VS. LAGER
Hops often enjoy the limelight with craft beer, but yeast is the foundation of your pint. More than driving the creation of alcohol — a big deal, no doubt — yeast also produces flavor and aroma compounds toward the finished beer. And it’s specific types of yeast responsible for the two main fermentation groups: ale and lager.
Crisp Little Thing uses lager yeast, called Saccharomyces pastorianus, to help create its clean, lip-smacking finish. Lager yeast thrives at lower temperatures than ale (42–55 ºF), takes longer to ferment (21–28 days), but rewards us with those delicate and refreshing beers that make for easy drinking.
