We all know the feeling of having not enough options to choose from when craving a cold brewski. Especially when your taste buds are fond of new explorations. But every situation has a solution and mine is a place called GAP. No, not the clothing brand. GAP stands for Gero Alaus Parduotuvė, which is Lithuanian for Good Beer Shop. A bit superficial, right? But the spot really holds up to its name.
It's located in Newtown, hip and popular with industrial club goers and significant startup office bunch. Yet, GAP found its place in here somehow. It works as a beer shop, a bar (not always) and a venue for beer tastings. The selection of beers on the shelf is one of the biggest in the city. You can always find exciting beers from the Baltics, Scandinavia, Germany, etc. or such household names as Mikkeller. One of my personal favs is the Maltgarden brewery from Poland. Their artwork and recipes are outstanding and the beers always pack a punch of flavor.
Besides foreign bestsellers, they also sell a tremendous range of Lithuanian brewskies like Dundulis or Sakiškių alus. The lineup is always plentiful and up to date. I usually grab a few cold ones to go or a bit more if I'm organising a beer tasting with friends (do kegs still count for tasting?), but it's also nice to join an event. Overall, the abundance is always present and I leave the shop happy, hope you'll do too.
