Hops and barely are the traditional ingredients for Latvian beer and you may find some example such as Honey beers or flavoured beers still being produced today.
The Latvian folklore songs document the use of beer and the Latvians love for beer on many occasions and throughout important festivals such as midsummer you can still here people singing these classic Latvian folk songs even today.
Smaller Latvian breweries from across Latvia are also plentiful, so have a look out for them as you travel around this fantastic country.
