Tanker Brewery is an Estonian craft brewery founded in Tallinn in 2014.[1] The brewery's best-selling product is Sauna Session, a beer flavoured with birch whisks.[1]
In 2019, Tanker Brewery opened a new factory in the town of Jüri south of Tallinn, nearly two times bigger than their existing factory. This allowed the brewery to package beer in cool tin cans instead of glass bottles.[2][3]
In 2021, Tanker Brewery was acquired by the Danish company Royal Unibrew, which also owns the Finnish brewery Hartwall.[4] Tanker's CEO, Jaanis Tammela, said the cooperation will be beneficial to both parties and will enable further growth, expansion into new markets and wider product availability.[5]
