Rich and malty dark lager is a great match for the darkest period of the year here in northern Finland. Tuikku has a complex malt profile making it rich and flavorsome dark lager for the abv. Expect to find deep grainy notes, dark fruits, some caramel and a touch of dark chocolate as well. Some spicy German bitterness in the finish makes it even more interesting. A perfect pairing for the rich plates of strudy food traditionally served this time of the year.
