About
Fat Lizard Brewing Co. is a Finnish Indie brewery specializing in super fresh and drinkable American-style beers.

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!

Burk. Ren och snygg pale ale med en tydlig karamellsötma, viss örtighet, rejäl beska. Kroppen är lätt och den är härligt krispig.

(Keg at Oluthuone Haka 20240702) The beer poured amber and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had pine, ripe fruits and caramel. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pine, fruitiness, toffee, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy, malty and bitter. A tasty hoppy brew with malty notes.
