Message crusianbeer beers 116 º places 4 º 10:25 Thu 3/17/2016 Anyone from Finland on here? My wife is heading in with a bunch of beer, would love some advice on what she should do and any in person trades if anyone is interested. Coming from Portland, so I have access to a lot, and have a pretty deep cellar!
Message Nische beers 4637 º places 121 º 11:00 Thu 3/17/2016 Shoot a beermail to wickedestman here, I am sure he can hook you up with great beer and nice places in Helsinki.
Message wchesser beers 2435 º places 44 º 15:24 Thu 3/17/2016 Write tiong-great host and trader if he’s around! Would definitely put this on the top of her list: http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/state/city/placename/1679.htm

Message Cuso P beers 15791 º places 335 º 17:03 Thu 3/17/2016 True. Brandman is another good contact.
Message craftycarl21 beers 2338 º places 93 º 01:44 Fri 3/18/2016 Was there in August. Kaisla is outstanding but Pikkulintu is at least a couple of tiers above. One of the best bars I’ve ever been to. One Pint Pub is very cool too, in almost as weird a set of buildings as Pikkulintu, but cozy with a great selection on the inside. I would say RB places has it in perfect order. Black Door and St. Urho’s are fun enough if you’re in the area, but those top 3 are definitely the winners as far as beer selection goes. If you have any questions about other tourist stuff, PM me!
Message crusianbeer beers 116 º places 4 º 10:52 Fri 3/18/2016 Good to hear. I do trust rb places, but it’s always a good idea to get input also. Anyone up for trades? No shipping costs, etc. I just got two triple ipas last night. Notorious and head crusher in Crowler format. :)

Message cgarvieuk P beers 37773 º places 457 º 12:19 Fri 3/18/2016 crusianbeers a great guy and so is his wife :-) anyone in Helsinki should jump at the chance of trade.
Message crusianbeer beers 116 º places 4 º 12:27 Fri 3/18/2016 Arg. Wife. Dammit Craig. Lol. ;) Ugh.
Message TAR beers 2821 º places 34 º 16:00 Fri 3/18/2016 Please don’t be misled by the low scores for Suomenlinnan Panimo and seek out some of their beautifully executed, well balanced foundational styles which haven’t been Americanized (e.g., pils, porter, IPA, pale ale, bitter, etc.), all of which are around 4-6% ABV. And if the unfiltered pils from Bryggerei Helsinki is available from bottle, it’s personally recommended.
