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 pour at the DCBeer December 2025 share. Poured a black color with a small off-white head. Aroma was roasted malts, some licorice. Sweet, smooth. Pleasant vinous port notes. Smooth and enjoyable.

Tap at Goblet. Lightly hazy golden body, off-white head. Bit citric, earthy aroma, minerally, odd yeasty touch. Watery taste, some tangerine maybe in the background, low pine, herbal touches, bit minerally, low bready maltiness, pretty much no bitterness. Misleading name but hey, not sure what they expected from mandarin juice. Okay.
