Dundulis (Bukowski draught) is a brewery in Uzupis, Vilnius.
Dundulis is a Lithuanian craft brewery with no Vilnius brewery proper; the most reliable Vilnius draught is at Bukowski in Užupis as the house pour.
Tip: Bukowski for the Dundulis draught. The brewery proper sits north of Vilnius in Aukštaitija.
Address: Visų Šventųjų g. 7, 01306 Vilnius
Genys is one of Vilnius's main independent craft breweries, with a taproom on J. Basanavičiaus running rotating in-house pours from IPA to wild fermentation.
Tip: The garden taproom at Rūdninkų 14 is the summer option. Beer flight is the way to taste the range.
Sakiškių Alus runs from a restored 19th-century industrial building in Naujoji Vilnia, with a 24-tap mezzanine taproom overlooking the brewing floor.
Tip: Out of the centre. Take the bus or share a ride; the brewery tour adds context to the pour.
Kalnapilis has brewed in Panevėžys since 1902 and is the most ubiquitous Lithuanian pilsner across Vilnius bars, the dominant Lithuanian draught lineup.
Tip: No dedicated brewery tap in Vilnius; the Gedimino pub keeps the original Kalnapilis on draught.
Švyturys is Lithuania's oldest brewery, founded 1784 in Klaipėda; the most central Vilnius draught is at Šnekutis Mikalojaus, Ekstra and Baltas on tap.
Tip: The Klaipėda brewery itself runs visits; in Vilnius you taste the draught at any Šnekutis or Halės Deli.
Volfas Engelman has brewed in Kaunas since 1853; the Pilsner and Rinktinis pours show up on most Vilnius pub menus and at Halės Turgus bistro counters.
Tip: The Vilnius taste is on draught at most pubs; the Kaunas brewery itself is the only visiting option.
Genys Garden on Rūdninkų is the second Vilnius Genys outpost, a summer-leaning beer garden behind the Town Hall with a pizza counter and rotating taps.
Tip: Outdoor seating is the draw. Pair a Genys IPA with the in-house pizza.
