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.

Tap at Beer Stars 2/2020. Slightly cheesy yeastiness. Other than that there is shitloads of fruits - all the mentioned mango, guava, passionfruit are present heavily. Little else going on. Rather thin body, moderate carbonation. Moderate sourness. Easy drinking, quite good.

Smell- weak, hops, fruits. Foam- thin, kind of soft, slowly creping citrus and hops, a lot of fruits. Head is to the small side, white color. Appearance- simple bottle with generic black bottle cap again, please invest in bottle caps. Hazy yellow, orange, medium carbonation. From - snifter Taste- citrus, fruits, sweetness, then bitterness and hops, this is a lot better than galaxy, fewer hops bitterness and more fruits, quite refreshing, I get a lot of fruit notes and bit of biting sensation form my tongue.

Smell-weak to medium, hops, few fruit notes as well. Foam- thin, quite intense hit of hops, bitterness, and citrus. Head is medium-sized, white color. Appearance - generic bottle with a generic bottle cap, please invest in caps, simple letter or anything on the cap would be a bonus from me. Hazy yellow, orange color, a tiny bit of carbonation. From - snifter Taste - citrus, then an intense hit of hops, all going straight to the aftertaste. Well, this is IPA, I get that it must be hoppy, but for me feels a bit harsh. Maybe for people who like hoppy beers, this will be the right choice. Not my type.
