Vasileostrovskaya Brewery is a young company that, despite quite serious competition, very quickly became popular in its native city. Its products are in demand and are constantly updated with new interesting specimens.

The start of the journey

When Vasileostrovskaya Brewery was opened in St. Petersburg in 2002 in a small abandoned building along Uralskaya Street, no one attached any importance to this.

Shops of the Northern capital do not feel a shortage of such products. On their shelves you can find beer of any kind of the most famous companies. But the management of the new plant decided not to focus on famous brands. Following the example of some Russian enterprises, Vasileostrovskaya Brewery began to produce a “live” product. She refused to use preservatives to increase the shelf life of the goods. It was also decided to exclude from the production process the pasteurization step and other processing methods that could have a negative impact on the compositionfinal product. Such beer is popularly called "live". And indeed it is. Vasileostrovskaya Brewery uses old recipes in its work. They completely lacked filtration, and carbonization and clarification took place only in a natural way. This gave its results. The new beer was noticed and loved.

Rich assortment

Over time, another product appeared, which began to be produced by Vasileostrovskaya Brewery. Apple cider was a kind of alternative to fruit beer, which is not quite familiar to a Russian person.

The semi-dry sparkling product was fully consistent with the company's principles, since it contained only two main ingredients: clarified juice from fresh apples and yeast. The result is a wonderful refreshing drink with a unique flavor of summer. Its long aftertaste contains only yeast and light malic acidity. The amount of alcohol in this cider does not exceed 4.7 percent, which allows you to use it quite often at almost any time. The technology also uses a natural method of fermentation, and there are no dyes or any preservatives. Products are bottled in containers of 0.375 and 0.75 liters, which allows the buyer to choose the quantity of the purchased goods.

Outside views

It's safe to say that at present, almost every person in the city is familiar with Vasileostrovskaya Brewery. Reviews about the products that she produces say thatthat the specialists of the plant know their business well and cope with it perfectly. Beer lovers support the company's ambition to achieve success in the production of craft beer. This direction has recently become very popular all over the world.

But the plant's technologists are trying to diversify the assortment as much as possible and not limit consumers. In addition to cider and beer, a new kvass appeared on the shelves of the city's outlets, which can also be called "live". According to buyers, the new enterprise is a worthy rival to many famous corporations. This company has a number of significant advantages over its competitors:

1. It is the largest beer manufacturer in the city, and only domestic funds have been invested in its development.
2. Only the best water is used for production, which first undergoes complex multi-level purification.
3. The drinks are completely free of any chemical additives and various preservatives.
