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.

33 cl bottle @ home, BBE 02/2014
No head typical to weizen even though I tried to form one. Just a small lace. Aroma is somewhat tart with citrus, some grassy tones, yeasty notes and hints of hay. Flat palate, almost no carbonation at all. Flavour is tart and feels contaminated. It has citrus, lactic acid, some grassy notes and hints of herbs. Actually this is quite close to the Koulu house flavour. Not very good.

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Hazy golden small head. Fruity nose with evident cranberry. Sweetish with light body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Ripe fruits, cranberry juice and honey. Low bitterness. Strange idea, but well executed.
