About
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.

Slightly hazy yellow color, small steady white head. Banana, yeasty aroma with some metal hints. Light bodied. Sweet banana, candy, fruity flavor. Slightly tart. Way too watery hefeweizen. Of course this is made for Finnish grocery shop markets but 4.6% does not work with hefeweizens.

Aroma is fruity and slightly sour with some earthy notes and citrus. Flavour is tart and somewhat acidic with citrus, wheat, some hay and earthy notes. Smells and tastes a lot like saison. Good and refreshing!

Pours clear light orange with a tiny white head. Aroma of lemon, citrusy hops, butter and hay. Taste is quite malty with some notes of hay, grassy hops, butter, honey and metal. Finish is bitter and floral with notes of bready malts. A bit unbalanced IPA.
