Description
Saimaa Brewing Company on yksi Suomen vanhimmista yhä toiminnassa olevista pienpanimoista. Juuremme ulottuvat vuoteen 1995, jolloin ravintoloitsija Pertti Oksa aloitti oluenpanon Mikkelissä 200 litran ravintolapanimossa. Nykyinen, vuonna 2013 käynnistynyt panimomme mahdollistaa maanlaajuisen toiminnan ja kasvuvaraa riittää vielä tulevaisuuteenkin. Tällä hetkellä olemme tuotantomääriltämme Suomen kolmanneksi suurin pienpanimo.

On tap at Panimoravintola Bruuveri, Helsinki. Amber with an off-white head. Mild hoppy and fruity aroma with malt, peaches and a hint of citrus. Medium sweet and fruity with a pleasant bitterness. A bit weak in flavour, but quite nice. Medium body with a slightly soft carbonation . Lightly bitter aftertaste. Nice IPA!

A brown beer with a weak and blond head. The nose is sweet and toffeeish, red berries. Quite simple, but nice aroma. Taste of sweet malts, toffee, some fruits, bitter herbs. The end is slightly alcoholic. Medium bodied, low carbonation. Simple, sweet and slightly alcoholic beer, quite OK.

Can (from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity, mild sweet malts as well as some starchlike strange sweetness. Flavour is sweetmalts, mild grains, some strange sweetness as well as mild metallic and herbal notes. Without the metallic notes the flavour would be rather nice.
