Beer review: Teerenpeli Laiskajaakko (4.5% Finland: Panimoravintola Teerenpeli)
The Teerenpeli Laiskajaakko is a lager, more specifically a dark lager. It's brewed by Panimoravintola Teerenpeli, a Finnish brewery restaurant group. The brewery was founded in 1995 and is located in Lahti. Teerenpeli is one of the first micro-breweries in Finland and has received several awards for its products. Let's see what the Lazy Joe (=laiskajaakko) is all about.
Taste: The Teerenpeli Laiskajaakko is a medium-strength beer with an excellent roasted, faintly sweet malt aroma. The beer offers a malty aroma with roasted, dark bread flavors and ends with slight bitterness.
Overall the Teerenpeli Laiskajaakko is not the most diverse of beers. Then again, I don't think that dark lagers are really supposed to be diverse. In my opinion, they are best when they're easy to drink and feature a nice, simple roasted malty aroma. The Teerenpeli Laiskajaakko does exactly what I expect of a dark lager and since it's supermarket strength (4.5%), it's, without a doubt, one of the best dark lagers widely available in Finland.
5/5
