About
Saku Õlletehas was established in 1820, when the owner of Saku manor, Karl Friedrich Rehbinder decided to set up a small brewery at his manor. Documentation has proven that the first brewing period at the Saku beer house took place in October 1820. By 1899, Saku Õlletehas had become the biggest brewery in North Estonia and had built its own railway line between Saku and Tallinn.

Throughout history, quality lager beer and Baltic porter have played a key role in the Saku beer portfolios. These beers have been exported all over the world, from the Russian Empire to the developed beer markets in Europe.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Keg at Tallinn Airport. Pours pale yellow with white foam. Moderate aroma of pilsner malts, grain, minor grassy hop. Taste: light to moderate sweet & light bitter, cold & wet. Light body. Unsurprisingly rather bland

Bottled 500ml (Tallinn)
Reddish colour, small steady beige head and lace. Strong artifical cherry aroma with touch of marzipan - cherry coke like. Medium-bodied. Sweetish cherryish flavour, only a bit of Tume left. Artifical but not totally undrinkable - base beer is good enough.

Can. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. Solid grainy husky astringency, which kinda ruins it. Med-light bitterness, low sweetness, quite dry. A bit hard to drink due to the astringency. Average macro.
