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.

Can from Tbone, thanks! Dark brown color. Beechwood and fresh cheese in the aroma. Smoke, beechwood, hints of licorice and malt in the flavor. Shortish aftertaste but well done. A bottle tasted in august 2012 gave licorice and roast in the aroma. Malty roasty bready flavor with some licorice. Thinnish, but a good beer.

Bottle from Tbone, thanks! Blonde, hazy. Hint of citrus in the aroma. Citrus flavor with some spicy notes. Thinnish. Coreander. Perhaps more of a witbier as a weizen.

500ml can kindly shared by Finn. Bubbly off-white head, misty amber coloured body, crochetd lacing. Ripe fruity nose added by grain. Mixed taste profile of brown malts and apricot. More sweet that bitter to the ending. medium bodied. Quite alright. (Tromsø 17.07.2019).
