点评:The Little Big Brewery is tucked away a bit out of town on St George’s Esplanade between the Foresters Arms and the Jamaica Inn and we searched it out on our first evening in town expecting great things.
Standard one room micro brewery tap room set up with various seating styles along a thin room with a small serving area at the end on the right hand side. This supported three ale hand pumps and at least six keg taps.
The breweries Cecilia, Alan and Betty were available on the real ale pumps and then replicated in keg alongside others on the taps. Between us we tried all three of the ales with indifferent results. For the Cecilia, let’s just say I’ve had better Hazy IPA’s, the Alan was served far too warm and the Betty was the best of an average bunch.
We came across the keg options in several other establishments in St Peter Port where it made a decent alternative to the Beavertown and Camden products that seem to dominate the craft beer scene in Guernsey and the Alan and Betty keg versions were reliably better than our initial cask experience. And as we subsequently didn’t find their cask products in any other outlets on the island you have to wonder if this is a focus for them.
If the tap room had showcased only their keg products I might have scored them higher but to have three ales on and not have them in best condition is not the greatest advert for any brewery, big or small..

标准的单间微型啤酒厂自来水室设置了各种座位样式,沿着一个薄房间,右手边尽头有一个小服务区。这支持三个啤酒手动泵和至少六个小桶水龙头。
Cecilia、Alan 和 Betty 啤酒厂在真正的啤酒泵上可用,然后在小桶中与其他啤酒厂一起在水龙头上复制。在我们之间,我们尝试了所有三种麦芽啤酒,结果无所谓。对于 Cecilia,我们只能说我喝过更好的 Hazy IPA,Alan 喝得太热了,Betty 是一般酒中最好的。
我们在圣彼得港的其他几家企业中遇到了小桶选项,在那里它成为 Beavertown 和 Camden 产品的不错替代品,这些产品似乎在根西岛的精酿啤酒领域占据主导地位,而 Alan 和 Betty 小桶版本确实比我们最初的木桶更好经验。由于我们随后在岛上的任何其他商店都没有发现他们的桶装产品,你不得不怀疑这是否是他们的重点。
如果自来水室只展示了他们的小桶产品,我可能会给他们更高的分数,但开着三杯麦芽啤酒,但没有让它们处于最佳状态,这对任何啤酒厂来说都不是最好的广告,无论大小。
