Brālis

Brālis — "the brother" in Latvian — carries a whole programme in its name: beer as a brotherly gesture, the kind you share. This independent brand from the Riga area works through the styles of the contemporary scene — craft lagers, pale ales, bolder brews as the seasons turn — brewed in small volumes and distributed through the craft bars and bottle shops of the capital and its surroundings. Discreet but faithfully at its post, it illustrates that stratum of small houses which, under the international radar, quench the Latvian drinkers' daily thirst for proximity. One more brother at the great table of Baltic craft.
