▶ "Lithuania is now home to one of the world's great beer cultures, a beer culture that developed in relative isolation from the rest of the world. Farmhouse brewing survived to a greater extent in Lithuania than anywhere else, and through accidents of history, the Lithuanians then developed a commercial brewing culture from their unique farmhouse traditions. the result is a beer culture that is unlike any other, deserving a position next to the Belgian, British, German/Czech beer cultures.
This guide explains what is so special about Lithuanian beer, and helps you choose the right places to go and the right beers to drink."
