Our fellow alumnus from Class V, Marius Horbačauskas, is inviting us for a company visit to the Volfas Engelman brewery, the birthplace of Lithuania’s most favourite brand of beer! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this might just be one of the best BMI Alumni company visits of all time – combining business, educational, experiential and degustation programmes all in one.

In addition to the factory tour and educational program, Marius will make a presentation on what it takes to become a favourite beer brand in Lithuania, given all the local and international players in this extremely competitive market.

The discussion will continue over the dinner. We will be pairing different kinds of beer with various snacks and a second course. Don’t forget that Marius is not only a BMI Executive MBA graduate and the CEO of Volfas Engelman, but also a certified beer sommelier from Munich Beer Academy!

Making this visit even more exciting is the fact that Volfas Engleman plans to open a brand new production facility in April and expand its restaurant area with a new rooftop terrace for visitors. We hope to have a sunny afternoon and be among the very first ones to enjoy that exclusive view over the river and the Kaunas Old Town.

That’s right: don’t forget that the Volfas Engleman brewery is in Kaunas! It’s located within walking distance of the train station, making it very convenient to take a 16:44 train from Vilnius and a 21:13 train back if you’d like to indulge in beer degustation beyond just a small tasting sip.

We want to use this opportunity to reconnect with our fellow alumni residing in Kaunas. We know it’s not always easy for you to join activities in Vilnius. This time we really hope to see all of you!

What to expect:
-Educational program
-Factory tour
-Tasting of 4 kinds of beer and pairing with food
-Snacks and a main course
-Presentation and discussion
