Beer: Werewolf Beer
Made by: Brewery Rinkuskiai; Birzai, Lithuania

Owners Rimantas Cygas, Petras Kalkys and Sigitas Kalkys established the brewery in 1991. Rinkuskiai currently ranks fifth behind the country's four largest breweries and holds 4 percent of the market share, according to the company.

Web site: rinkuskiai.lt

If you visit the site, you won't find Werewolf among the brewer's offerings. That's because Aiko Importers developed Werewolf exclusively for the American market, according to an e-mail from Aiko President Igor Kogan.

Rinkuskiai brews Werewolf in Lithuania, which South Carolina-based Aiko imports into the U.S. along with other Rinkuskiai beers.

Type of beer: pale lager

A lager is defined as any beer brewed by bottom fermentation, which means the yeasts sink to the bottom during the fermentation process. Fermentation subsequently takes longer
