Beer tasting in Germany hosted by Beer Sommelier Alexander

Hello – my name is Alexander and I’m a passionate beer sommelier & experienced beverage technologist from Germany.

I like sharing my enthusiasm for high-quality beers, exciting breweries, tastings, beer trips & events with my followers on Instagram (@biersommelier.alexander) and clients in beer tastings. Together with my Finnish partner, I explore especially the fascinating (beer) culture of Finland. I have tasted & enjoyed Karvilan Panimo’s Korven Kutsu Wild Spruce Lager many times during the trips to Finland and I was very happy, that Karvilan Panimo made my request possible, that I can present this beer in the latest beer tasting ”Northern lights & hop dreams” in Germany.

It was hosted by the brewery taproom ”EMMA” in a small city near Frankfurt and I worked as a tasting leader for them.

The tasting was about beer specialties from Finland. The participants haven’t tried any similiar beer/any beer which is brewed with wild spruce yet. It was exciting new flavor and aroma impressions for them and they have appreciated it.

As a beer sommelier, I would summarize the feedback for you like this:

”Korven Kutsu Wild Spruce Lager by Karvilan Panimo is an exciting, unfiltered Wild Spruce Lager with 5 % vol. This unique Finnish beer is definitely a ”call of the wilderness”. It has a fine hazyness & an golden-amber colored body. Fresh aromas of forest & spruce come along with a refreshing carbonization, resin notes and a well balanced bitterness.”
