Global Brands has launched Estonian beer Viru.

Viru is from le Coq Brewery in Tartu, is produced using Lithuanian malted barley, hops and spring water, and is brewed to 5% ABV.

It is presented in an octahedral bottle which is based on a 100-year-old Russian design, inspired by the medieval turrets of Estonia.

John Harley, beer brands director at Global Brands, the UK distributors for Viru, commented: "Viru Beer combines all the richness of flavour associated with Central and Eastern European beers, but within a light and refreshing Pilsener style."

Viru is sold in cases of 20x300ml bottles.
