SHORT DATED Volfas Engelman Rinktinis 5.2% 568ml BBD: 13.12.2025
Rinktinis means “elite selection" and for more than a century it’s lived up to that name. This was the flagship beer of Lithuania’s greatest brewery, revived to honour its Kaunas roots.
Brewed with pure filtered water and premium pilsner malt, Rinktinis pours light gold with a soft white head. Perle and Magnum hops lend a faint floral spice; a traditional yeast keeps it smooth and balanced.
At 5.2% ABV it’s medium-bodied, easy to drink, and full of character, malty upfront with a clean, crisp finish. Unpasteurised to preserve flavour, it tastes like a fresh pour from the brewery tap. Serve well chilled (4–6 °C) for best refreshment.
This batch is short-dated (Best Before 13 Dec 2025) but will stay bright and delicious for another year if stored cool. A rare chance to enjoy authentic Baltic craftsmanship at a special clearance price.
