Description
Ārpus Brewing Co. is an independent microbrewery, founded in 2017 by craft beer geeks from Latvia. We brew what we love - juicy hop forward ales, fruity sour beers and bold imperial stouts - and we’re proud that Ārpus Brewing Co. is voted as #1 brewery in the Baltic States on Untappd.

We chose Latvian word Ārpus for the name of our brewery, as its meaning reflects the types of beers we brew - outside the box, beyond the mass made lagers, beers with overwhelming flavours and aromas for people brave enough to step out of their comfort zone.

The brewery is located just outside Riga (Latvia), equipped with a 10hL brewhouse and 20hL fermentation vessels. Our beer is packaged in 440mL cans and KeyKegs, then stored in a cold room to keep it fresh longer.

Dark red, pink foam. Smells raspberry and sweet. Taste is mostly sweet berries, refreshing but not much of a sourness. Has the right amount of saltyness, though. Forest fruit soda. Pretty tasty, but was expecting something more tart. Still decent enough.

Smell - weak to medium, fruits, malt, a bit of caramel. Foam - thin, bit to medium ,bitter-sweet, fruity, sweetness, acidic tones and a bit of alcohol. Head is tiny, the creamy-white color disappears almost instantly. Appearance - colorful, but simple can. Hazy, brown color, bit like dirty water. From - snifter Taste - citrus, hops, bittersweet, fruits, malt, alcohol. Interesting combination, quite sweet, but added hops does tame sweetness down. I think I like it.

Bottle at home. Pours a very hazy orange-ish, little head. Aroma is juicy and hoppy, nicely herbal. Flavour is bitter and somewhat sweet, loads of herbal hops. It's a bitter NEIPA - I quite like it, especially the earthy and herbal hops. Lot of west coast pine and resin - a hazy west coast IPA I guess. A really nice double IPA.
