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.

330ml bottle from Alko as Marsalkka Portteri

Pours pitch black with a tiny white bubbly head. Aroma has notes of licorice, burnt malts, and leather. Taste is quite boozy with notes of burnt malts, salty licorice and some hops. Finish is quite strong and warming with fruity and bitter notes. Okay, quite strong and slightly unbalanced porter.

33 cl bottle @ home as ”Marsalkka Portteri” from Saimaan Juomatehdas. BBE 08/2012
Aroma is fruity and a bit stale with very light roastiness for this style and ABV. Flavour is fruity and hoppy with toffee. Hints of metal in the finish and some roastiness kicks in at the aftertaste. Somewhat harsh palate. Thinner and worse than I would expect from a 8,6% porter. This is actually rather close to an export stout. But decent stuff anyway.
