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.

Draught at the brewpub- Dark brown with red tinges. Malty, grainy aroma with a bit of hay. Tangy on the tongue at first with a fruity, malty taste with a pleasant finish which is malty and grainy. Drinkable but nothing special and begins to irritate a bit by the end of the glass. I should’ve had a half!!

Draught at Panimoravintola Bruuveri, Helsinki- Golden in colour with not much of a discernible aroma at first but this could be down to the serving temperature. Grainy and malty aroma with a grassy, malty taste. It is quite refreshing but nothing special. Tastes very fresh though.

Draught at Bruuveri, Helsinki. Clear golden, minimal head. Lightly piney hop aroma. Sweet with coarse hard mouthfeeö. The inpenetrably hard malt profile gives the beer strong metallic edges and prevents all flavours from reaching my tastebuds. Finishing lightly salty and resiny. Joyless and primitive.
