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.

This could be mistaken for a beer from Pripps Brewery. It has the same sweet and sour flavour. Only the bitter finish saves it from being a complete disaster.

Rerate 500 ml bottle, from a potential importer. ABV is 4.6%. Very pale yellow colour, large white head. Fairly strong sweetish and grassy aroma. The flavour is rather sweet, again with some grassy notes, and the bitterness is too moderate. Far from undrinkable, though.

A lager with lime flavour. Take a bottle of nothing and add oversweeted lemon juice. I guess this could work if you a re a fan of overly sweet lemon juice. I'm not.

Golden coloured. Very light bodied, crisp. Like a Saku Originaal where the flavours have been removed. If you have tasted Saku Originaal you know that removing those flavours is good news...

Yellow coloured. Sweet and creamy with medium body. Too much alcohol, too little hops and malt.

Unbearably sweetish and bland, lacking any hint of bitterness as well as any other redeaming feature one can think of.
