History
Zmogsala – exotic winter beer festival in Vilnius. The aim of the festival is to introduce beer lovers with the most diverse and interesting beers on our market. And the tradition of hosting a festival at the end of winter allows us to introduce exotic, dark and strong beers. The author of this festival idea and organizer - a.a.Vidmantas Laurinavicius (Vidma Alutis).
Vidma Alutis was the founder of the first Lithuanian beer website alutis.lt. When there were only few websites on the Lithuanian Internet at all, a website was created that mainly wrote about Lithuanian beer.
Vidma was also a collector, founder of several famous bars, home brewer, designer, and event organizer. His fellows decided to continue the tradition and organize the 7th festival Zmogsala in his memory.
