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. Rated on 16.10.2010
Aroma has some alcohol, berries and hints of metal. Flavour has some fusel‐like alcohol, solvent, roasted malt, berries and hints of brown sugar. Unfortunately one of the worst Abbey Dubbels I’ve had. Hope they can do better at Saimaa.
