Alus Rūme Trofeja

The brewery Alus Rūme Trofeja has only lately joined the neighborhood of Avotu Street. As the owner Valdis laughs – the brewery is not even micro, but nano or it consists of only ten 200l brewing tanks. The brewery's small size, however, does not in any way affect the range of outstanding and unusual beers it produces. A mead that is produced with no hops, malt, juice, or tea is one of Alus Rūme Trofeja most intriguing offerings.

You can buy beer to take with you or to consume on the spot in one of Riga's most interesting neighborhoods, Avotu Street. Beers with pine buds, almonds, cocoa, mountain ash, and pumpkin, among other flavors, are available.
