Riga Spirits & Wine Outlet, Riga

What to buy here: Beer.

Travel high and low around Riga, visually savor its colorful beauty and uniqueness, appreciate its culture and art, and when you feel a little parched or tired, sit at a conveniently nearby bar or pub and continue your journey through Latvia's richness through the flavors of its beer. Beer is highly appreciated in Latvia, after centuries of German influence, a fact you will come to believe after your first gulp.

Latvian beer is considered among the best in the world. The main reason for that being the excellent quality of the ingredients used and the production process. Famed local brands are Aldaris, Cesis, Valmiermuiza and the hard to find outside Latvia - Uzavas, Bauska or Tervetas. All of these can be found all around the city at most pubs/bars and in specialized shops.

If searching for a wider variety, one can venture into the Riga Spirits & Wine Outlet, the first specialized alcoholic beverage store in Riga located in the heart of the city, or Rimi Centrs, a supermarket with a good selection of Latvian bottled beers.

Prices for beer in Riga range from $1.90 for 0,5L and up.
