Craft Beer Brewery Latvia

CONTEMPORARY
BREWING

The beer culture does not stand still because we're developing it.

Labietis isn't brewed according to the recipes of German barons or the traditions of our ancestors. We brew beer here and now, inspired by the diversity of world styles. Labietis began as a countercurrent to boring beer that has sunk into the shallows of industrial brewing tastes.

We're supporting local culture without falling behind global craft beer trends. Modern beer brewing is without borders.

PAGAN BREWS

The oldest archaeologically recorded beer sediments are 5000 years old. The oldest references - 13,000 years old.

Our inspiration comes from a time before beer had classification of styles and rules - when herbs and juicy fruits were used in brewing. History is enigmatic and we interpret it in flavors.

HONESTLY BREWED

Labietis started in an open space instead of a closed factory with the idea that everyone can watch the brewing process while sitting in a pub.

We stand for honest brewing and we're vouching for the quality of every ingredient, from hand-harvested heather to overseas hops or exotic fruit purees.

BEER SHOP

  • Three Indians 5%

    Brashly American pale ale with a crisp and explicit bitterness. The pine and citrus aroma of Cascade and Centennial hops enrich the earthy bitterness of Columbus creating a neo-classic biterness profile. Pale ale malt soothes the tongue into a grapefruity aftertaste.

  • Gravedigger 10,1%

    A seriously dark smoked beer with multifaceted bitterness. The apocalyptic aroma of deep char, smoke and tar coquettishly cover the alcohol content. The seriousness continues on the palate, permeated by the peat smoked and roasted malts, resinous fruity bitterness of Columbus hops, as well as notes of caramel and candy, which luckily keep it all in a state of tentative balance. Dried fruits and warmth in the finish.

  • Tumsas_ragana_braggot

    WITCH OF DARKNESS 15,6% (375ml)

    This is a contemporary remake of a prehistoric braggot that was served at a funeral in Egtved ~3390 years ago. Using the same raw materials - smoked and roasted wheat, honey, wild berries and wild herbs. On the nose smoked and toasted wheat is surrounded by honey with hints of lindenblossom. Further the sweetness of honey is balanced by slight tartness of cranberries and lingonberries, as well as the bitterness of the bog myrtle. The pleasantly warming strength of the beverage together with coffee notes dominate the aftertaste of this archeological drink.

  • Irbenu_mezonis_VIBURNUM_BERRY_ALE

    VIBURNUM WILDLING 7.2% (375ml)

    Berry ale brewed according to the traditional Belgian method. Fermented with yeasts of the genus Brettanomyces, after which matured for 3 months on viburnum berries picked after the first frosts, at a ratio of 1/8. The nose is immediately occupied by the haunting timber like aroma of viburnum berries. On the tongue the viburnum berries open up and the bitter aroma is complemented by a haunted sweetness with a slight acidity. Just moving into the aftertaste, wild yeast esters also appear on the scene, which allows this show to move into the tracks of conventionally recognizable flavors that draw in the bare aesthetics of a late autumn forest.

  • Pokainu_mezs_herbal_barley_wine

    MAGIC FOREST 11,4%

    An intense brew first enjoyed by the British aristocracy during the Industrial Revolution. Already on the nose, you can feel the drink's thick core of lightly caramelized malts, which is refreshed by the resinous pine buds and the spooky wild rosemary. The tongue literally gets stuck in the maltiness, only to be rescued by the bitterness of the hops, all of which lingers into sticky warmth.

  • IMP 5,3%

    An interdisciplinary berry beer with a multifaceted tastescape. The dry floral aroma of elderflower pleasantly compliments the fruitiness of Mosaic un Galaxy hops. On the tongue the explicit acidity of red currant liquifies the tropical bitterness, leaving a sour berry and dry aftertaste that lingers until you move your toes.

  • Kirsu_mezonis_cherry_ale

    CHERRY WILDLING 6,2% 2023 (375ml)

    A unique ale brewed with Brettanomyces lambicus since October of 2022 and matured on fresh cherries at ratio of 1/3 since July 2023. The result is an ale with explicitly redish berry like acidity and a rich spiciness of wild yeast esters and phenols. All this in a carmine red with a penetrating fruitiness that belies the alcohol content. Maturation on cherrywood chips before bottling gives the ale a gently smoky sweetness with a pleasantly dry aftertaste that makes the glass empty faster than perhaps it should.

  • Bruklenit_LINGONBERRY_ALE

    LITTLE LINGONBERRY 3% (375ml)

    A contemporary take on a Belgian style berry lambic. Here we have fermented an extremely light wort with Brettanomyces genus yeasts and matured on fresh lingonberries for 3 months at a ratio of 1/8. On the nose, the bitter aroma of lingonberries is fresh and mossy, allowing you to slip into an autumnal seaside forest landscape. On the tongue, the tart nature of the lingonberries comes to life, complemented by sweet and spicy yeast esters, creating a delicate bouquet of a variety of forest berries, that fades into a refreshing aftertaste.

    MIXED FERMENTATION LINGONBERRY ALE 2022

  • PETER THE HOP 8,2%

    All the rage of the 90s California captured in an imperial IPA. Brewed with the pillars of the new world of hops at that time - Columbus, Centennial, Cascade, Amarillo, and Citra. Each hop adds to the thickness of the wave of bitterness, that crashes upon a mountain of lightly caramelised malts. The epic landscape fades slowly into warmth.
