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.

SOPP 2013, Turku. A hazy, orangebrown beer with a weak and blond head. Aroma of toffee and nuts, some fruits, strawberries and red berries. Taste is quite dry, nuts, wood, some pine, medium bitterness. The aftertaste is quite dry, wooden and piney. Medium bodied, balanced carbonation, fresh. Quite nice, brittish IPA.

Aroma is quite light with grain, hints of hay, caramel and resin. Flavour is sweet with strong gluey notes, caramel, some toffee and malty notes. Palate is rather low on CO2. Not very good.

Can at a ChrisO tasting - London. Pours hazy yellow with a fine, white film head. Wheat and straw in the aroma. Light sweet flavor, faint wheat, some cereal. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Somewhat zippy on the finish, tangy wheat, light lemon, moderate yeast. A pretty poor hefeweizen.
