Borran's Beer Review: Virmalised

I remember Pohjala beer from when I was in Scandinavia last year, they were always impressive. I note in the last week or so they have launched into Australia, so I'll be drinking more of them soon.

That is quite the head on that beer! It looks and sounds good though. I love a good tropical IPA. It is too bad I have not seen and brews from that brewery where I live though :(

Keep up the "hard" work of reviewing those beers ;)

I think they have started gradually selling overseas. Maybe one day you can find their beer in the states! :)

Borran's Beer Review: Virmalised

Hey everyone!

Today, I'm reviewing an IPA called Virmalised from the brewery Põhjala. This beer was quite expensive so, I expect a quality beer! Põhjala is a familiar brewery for me, since I have tried some of their products before. Usually they don't let you down.

Description of the beer:

"Virmalised translates as Aurora Borealis (The Northern Lights) - A powerful IPA with a citrus kick, Virmalised uses a blend of hops, including Citra and Azacca."

Brewery facts:

- The brewery's name Põhjala means "northern realm".

- Founded in 2011 by four Estonian beer enthusiasts.

- Soon they were joined by head brewer Chris Pilkington, from the Scottish craft brewery Brewdog.

- Põhjala has a particular focus on porters, barrel ageing, and ingredients from the forests of Estonia.

- 70% of Põhjala's production is exported to over 30 countries.

- In 2018 the company invested nearly 4.9 million euros in moving production to a new brewery.

Here's a list of their most well known beers:

Virmalised

Must Kuld

Öö

Uus Maailm

Jõuluöö

CocoBänger

Meri

Kosmos

Appearance: hazy golden color with a big white head.

Smell: tropical fruits, caramel.

Mouthfeel: medium body, medium carbonation.

Taste: taste follows the nose: tropical fruits, caramel. Hoppy with a bitter finish.

Verdict: A well balanced beer, juicy and fruity. The alcohol is masked beautifully. A brew for all the hop-heads. Very appealing bottle with the northern lights on the label. I can't find anything wrong with this beer, Põhjala delivers again! It's a very nice solid IPA! My rating: 4 out of 5.

Please drink responsibly!
