Pääkaupunkiseudun Parhaat Olutravintolat Good Pub Guide To Pääkaupunkiseudun Parhaat Olutravintolat 2011 Good Pub Guide to the Greater Helsinki Area 2 Alkusanat / Foreword Pääkaupunkiseudun Parhaat Olutravintolat 2011 opas on jatkoa Perinteisen Oluen Seuran Suomen Parhaat Olutravintolat 2000 –oppaalle. Oppaan ravintola kuvaukset on kirjoitettu uusiksi ja tiedot päivitetty. Valintakriteerit ja lähtökohta ovat pysyneet samoina. Mukaan otettiin ne olutravintolat, jotka tarjoavat harrastajalle riittävän olutvalikoiman ja oluiden lisäksi ”olutuskottavuutta”. Olutuskottavuudella tarkoitetaan kokonaisvaltaista otetta olutravintolan pitämisessä, pelkkä olutvalikoima ei riitä, sen pitää olla myös ajatuksella valittu ja olutta on osattava kohdella oikein. Tämä opas julkaistaan Euroopan olutkuluttajien liiton EBCU:n (European Beer Consumers Union) Helsingissä 2-3.4.2001 pidettävän kokouksen kunniaksi. Opas julkaistaan myös www.PosBeer.org:n sivuilla. Päivitykset sen olutravintalaoppaiden tietokantaan tehdään kevään aikana. Työ on tehty vapaaehtoisvoimin POS:n jäsenten muodostaman työryhmän toimesta. Työryhmässä ovat olleet mukana Harri Ahola, Janne Karila, Petteri Helin, Ari Järmälä sekä Mika Rajamäki. Kiitokset myös edellisen oppaan toimittajille Kari Likovuorelle ja Peter Ovellille. Peter Ovell on myös tarkistanut oppaan englanninkieliset tekstit (panimo-osio ei ehtinyt Peterin oikolukuun). Opas ei ole tietenkään ole täydellinen.Tiedot on pyritty tarkistamaan parhaan taitomme mukaan. Valinnat ja pisteytykset ovat myös täysin työryhmän omia. Helsinki on maailmanluokan olutkaupunki. Parhaiden olutravintoloiden tarjonta on kattava käsittäen kaikki tärkeimmät olutmaat. Tarjolla on myös harvinaisuuksia ja yllätyksiä. Tarjonta on vaihtelevaa ja uusia oluita esitellään kuukausittain. Toivottavasti tämä opas auttaa sekä paikallisia että matkailijoita löytämään itselleen hyvän oluen ja mielyttävän paikan, jossa siitä nauttia. This Good Pub Guide to the Greater Helsinki Area 2011 follows on from where the Finnish Society for Traditional Beers’ Good Pub Guide to Finland 2000 left off, at least for the Helsinki region. The pub descriptions have been updated and new additions made. The guide’s principles and the criteria to be met for pubs to feature in the guide are unchanged. The pubs selected must offer a sufficiently good beer range for the enthusiast and must display “credibility”. By credibility we mean a firm overall understanding of how a specialist beer bar should be run; it is about more than the beer range - the products must be chosen carefully and handled correctly. This guide is published in conjunction with the meeting of the European Beer Consumers Union (EBCU) in Helsinki on 2-3 April 2011. It is also published online at www.PosBeer.org. Updates of the site’s database of pub guides will be made during the spring. The guide has been put together by a working group composed of members of the Finnish Society for Traditional Beers: Harri Ahola, Janne Karila, Petteri Helin, Ari Järmälä and Mika Rajamäki. Thanks also go to the editors of the previous guide, Kari Likovuori and Peter Ovell. The present guide’s sections in English have been edited by Peter Ovell (the breweries section excepted). Pääkaupunkiseudun Parhaat Olut ravintolat 2011 Good Pub Guide to the Greater Helsinki Area 3 The guide is not perfect of course, though every effort has been made to check the information presented. The decisions regarding the pubs listed and the evaluations of them have been made by the working group alone. Helsinki is undoubtedly a world-class beer destination. The beer range of the pubs listed here covers not only products from all the main brewing nations but also less widely available products, and some surprises too. The range is also constantly changing, with new products appearing every month. Hopefully this guide will prove valuable to locals and visitors alike, helping them locate great beers and attractive pubs in which to enjoy them. Perinteisen Oluen Seura (POS) / The Finnish Society For Traditional Beers Tämän oppaan julkaisija on helsinkiläinen Perinteisen Oluen Seura ry. POS on vuonna 1990 perustettu, täysin riippumaton ja vapaaehtoisvoimin toimiva kuluttajia edustava järjestö. Se on Suomen Olutliiton jäsen ja sen myötä POS kuuluu Euroopan laajuiseen kuluttajaliittoon EBCU:un. Perinteisen Oluen Seuran tarkoituksena on edistää suomalaista olutkulttuuria vaikuttamalla Suomessa saatavilla oleviin ja valmistettaviin olutlaatuihin monipuolisen, maittavan oluttarjonnan saatavuuden varmistamiseksi ravintoloissa, baareissa ja vähittäiskaupassa. Tavoitteena on lisätä, perinteisten yksilöllistä makua omaavien oluiden osuutta suhteessa maailmanmerkkeihin. Samalla seura haluaa tukea, kehittää ja monipuolistaa jäsentensä olutnautintoja. The Finnish Society for Traditional Beers The publisher of this guide is the Finnish Society for Traditional Beers. The society, based in Helsinki, was founded in 1990 and is a completely independent organization representing the interests of the consumer. The Society is a member of the nationwide beer consumer organization the Finnish Beer Union (Olutliitto), which is in turn a member of The European Beer Consumers’ Union (EBCU). The aim of the Society is to promote Finnish beer culture by seeking to influence the range of beers available and produced in Finland, ensuring that pubs, restaurants and the retail trade stock diverse and flavoursome products. The aim is to see an expansion in the share of traditional, characterful beers in relation to the global brands. The Society is also concerned with supporting and encouraging the efforts of its members to broaden their appreciation and experience of the world’s many classic and other interesting beers.

  • Nordic Alcohol Policy in Europe: the Adaptation of Finland's, Sweden's and Norway's Alcohol
    Thomas Karlsson Thomas Karlsson Thomas Karlsson Nordic Alcohol Policy Nordic Alcohol Policy in Europe in Europe The Adaptation of Finland’s, Sweden’s and Norway’s Alcohol Policies to a New Policy Framework, 1994–2013 The Adaptation of Finland’s, Sweden’s and Norway’s Alcohol Policies to a New Policy Framework, 1994–2013 Nordic Alcohol Policy in Europe Policy Alcohol Nordic To what extent have Finland, Sweden and Norway adapted their alcohol policies to the framework imposed on them by the European Union and the European Economic Area since the mid-1990s? How has alcohol policies in the Nordic countries evolved between 1994 and 2013 and how strict are their alcohol policies in comparison with the rest of Europe? These are some of the main research questions in this study. Besides alcohol policies, the analyses comprise the development of alcohol consumption and cross-border trade with alcohol. In addition to a qualitative analysis, a RESEARCH quantitative scale constructed to measure the strictness of alcohol policies is RESEARCH utilised. The results from the study clearly corroborate earlier findings on the significance of Europeanisation and the Single Market for the development of Nordic alcohol policy. All in all, alcohol policies in the Nordic countries are more liberal in 2013 than they were in 1994. The restrictive Nordic policy tradition has, however, still a solid evidence base and nothing prevents it from being the base for alcohol policy in the Nordic countries also in the future.

  • Finnish Restaurants Purchasing from Small Local Breweries
    Saimaa University of Applied Sciences Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality, Imatra Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Management Maijuriina Mustonen Finnish Restaurants Purchasing from Small Local Breweries Thesis 2016 Abstract Maijuriina Mustonen Finnish Restaurants Buying from Small Local Breweries, 52 pages, 2 appen- dices Saimaa University of Applied Sciences Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality, Imatra Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Management Thesis 2016 Instructor: Ms Marja Antikainen, Senior Lecturer, Saimaa University of Applied Sciences The purpose of the research was to find out what prevents or makes it difficult for Finnish restaurants to add small brewery products into their selection. The thesis aim was also to find ways to improve the co-operation between Finnish small breweries and restaurants. The data for the research was gathered via an online questionnaire sent to qual- ifying Finnish restaurants in Southern parts of Finland. The questionnaire in- cluded both quantitative and qualitative questions. Relevant theory and basics of beverage management was used to interpret the research results. The ongoing trends in the food and drink industry focused on the popularity of microbreweries, local and organic produce and trends in sales of alcohol in Finland. Also Finnish laws and regulations and their consequences for Finnish small brewery beer and cider were studied. The results show that Finnish restaurants experience clear demand for local small brewery products and they should be in the selection in order to answer demand. Most respondent restaurants have craft beer in their selection, but craft cider is less common. This offers an opportunity for restaurants to differentiate them- selves through serving craft cider among the few who do, and for the producers there is a chance to start expanding to restaurants.

  • Craft Beer Marketing. Do You Have to Be First, Best, Or Unique to Succeed?
    Craft Beer Marketing. Do You Have to be First, Best, or Unique to Succeed? Benjamin Lahnalampi Thesis Hotelli- ja ravintola-alan koulutusohjelma 2016 Abstract Author Benjamin Lahnalampi Program Hotelli- ja ravintola-ala koulutusohjelma - keittiömestari Thesis title Page count Craft Beer Marketing. Do You Have to be First, Best, or Unique to Suc- 43 + 13 ceed? This thesis deals with the interplay of marketing and design in the craft brewing industry in Finland. The goal was to figure out what craft brewers do to successfully market their prod- ucts. The thesis first explains that craft beer is different from generic beer in that it is un- compromising in its ingredients, special flavours, and sole focus on the beer rather than stock prices. Craft breweries use grassroots and guerrilla marketing tactics. They are heav- ily involved in social media marketing and keep close ties to their customers to get face to face feedback. The method was a case study of three Finnish craft breweries performed by interviews with: Maku Brewing, Fat Lizard Brewing Co., and Iso Kallan Panimo. The hypothesis was that a craft brewer must be first, best, or unique in order to be successful but it was proven not entirely true. While the above statement is true initially, the keys to succeeding as a craft brewery are a focus on quality, commitment, knowledge, perseverance, and a crystal clear brand. The craft brewer needs a quality product with the attitude and passion to suc- ceed. Consumers of craft beer are buying into the feeling and the passion behind the brand. They may drink craft beer to be part of a community, have the best quality they can get, or be part of something new and exciting.

  • Our Beer Genes
    Our Beer Genes INTRODUCTION It seems that some of us have inherited some genes which have resulted in an appreciation of beer. I have tried to find out if there is any background to support such a presumption for that consumption. And indeed, is seems that many of our distant ancestors have been involved in this. They span mythical, legendary and historical persons; the reader may decide where fiction becomes reality. Going back to the earliest history is the mythical Valhalla where the mead plays a most important role for the Vikings. Also in the Norse mythology cited here Odin arranges to obtain the mead of poetry. You can read a fictional story about the origin of the beer in Finland in the “The Granholm North Pole Legend”, where it seems that Magog, the grandson of Noah married the maiden Lapin Kulta. The Finnish professor Daniel Juslenius shows the roots of the Finns from the family of Magog in the Bible 88 years after the flood. A Finnish reproduction, called Sahti, of the Viking beer shows the recipe for it based on an early find from a ship excavation. The earliest recorded stories about our ancestors brewing beer or ale is by Ægir, a son of Fornjotr, a King of Finland. Aegir’s grandson, named Fjölnir, was also involved deeply in this story about beer. Here I have showed parts from the book about Norwegian-Finnish Royal Ancestry, Mythical to 872. Thor, in the Norse mythology, was a great beer consumer. I have enclosed a story about him and Aegir’s beer brewing kettle.

  • In English WISH YOU WERE BEER
    In English WISH YOU WERE BEER WISH YOU WERE BEER - The story of Finnish beer The recipe for beer is simple: fresh water, malted grain, yeast and hops. Just a few ingredients to make a drink that has countless meanings. For centuries in Finland, beer has served folk both in their daily lives and on their annual high days and holidays, while contributing to the economies of kingdom, empire and republic. Bog myrtle has sometimes been replaced by hops, the primitive beer trough by brewery equipment, and wild yeast by pure- culture beer yeasts. One ruler after another has likewise had an interest in beer. During the era of Swedish rule (up to 1809), beers were made at different strengths to suit each type of consumer. For decades after World War II, Finland’s beer culture was dominated by a ubiquitous medium-strength type. At grass-root level, beer has also been a mark of rebellion. Surely no other sound better signals time out than the hiss of a post-sauna beer bottle being opened on a Saturday evening? The association of beer with freedom is also familiar in marketing. The beer sold by retailers nowadays accounts for the bulk of alcohol sales in Finland. The downsides and upsides of drinking, its sorrows and joys, are possibly most strongly evident in the city park and the living-room at home. The exhibition Wish you were beer looks at beer from different angles. Finnish has two commonly-used words for beer: kalja and olut. In literary Finnish, kalja refers to weak beer, but in spoken Finnish its meaning varies from one locality and generation to another.
