Fat Lizard Brewing Co.
Microbrewery
in Espoo,
Uusimaa,
Finland 🇫🇮
Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 2014
We’re located in Otaniemi, in the very heart of Espoo. As the first commercial brewery ever in Espoo, the company was founded by four fellows – Hessu, Topo, Topi and Eero – in 2014 and has been operative since February 2015. Today the brewery staff includes 15 irreplaceable characters altogether.
After many years of homebrewing and heavy testing, the recipes were just too good to keep for ourselves. It was time to build a brewhouse in Kivenlahti Rock Bay. Two years of constant sold-out storage left no beer for ourselves. So we moved on and expanded in Otaniemi with a decent sized brewing equipment going nationwide.
Now our beer portfolio contains various styles of craft beer, all made in our extraordinary way of brewing. Including internationally acclaimed gems. Drink more, drink better!

Bottle 0.75l at One Pint Pub, Helsinki. Bottled on 16.8.16. Colour is clear golden with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Fruits, some sweetness, some spices, hops, Belgian yeast and malts. Quite good surprise because I was waiting for something horrible. Drinkability level OK. Looks carbonated but palate is actually quite pleasant.

Draught @ Brewdog Helsinki. Poured deep golden color with a thin white head. Tropical fruity aroma, spruce and floral notes. Flavor has tropical fruit juice, hops, floral notes. Finishes slightly sweet and bitter. Needs more malty backbone, but otherwise a tasty IPA.
