Description
Põhjala Brewery is the brainchild of three friends and beer aficionados who, like many a future craft brewer, got tired of the tasteless watery lagers that the faceless megacorporations have saturated the beer market with.

We brew small batches of hand crafted ales, using the best malts, loads of mostly New World hops and a relentless passion for good beer. When creating our beers, we are inspired by Nordic nature, Estonian new cuisine and the work of our fellow microbrewers in the U.S., UK and Scandinavia who, in our opinion, are leading the craft beer revolution.

In hops we trust!

Bottle shared with SVD. Very nice, some vanilla, lactose and a little bitter. No "campfire smokiness" if you ask me.

Bottle shared with SVD. Nice, but the whisky is VERY present. Would have been better if the flavours were balanced a little more.
