Шаблон:Use dmy dates Alita is a brewing company based in Alytus, Lithuania, established in 1963.[1]

Alita is one of the largest producers of alcoholic beverages in Lithuania.[2][3] In 2004, when the state monopoly of liquor production in Lithuania was lifted, the company was privatised. In the same year, Alita acquired 95% stake of Lithuanian company Anykščių vynas, the oldest wine producer in Eastern Baltic region.[4][5][6]

Alita produces naturally fermented sparkling grape vines, alcoholic cocktails, ciders, vodka, brandy, concentrated fruit juice and exports its products around the world.[1]

In 2000, the distillery released a vodka named Putin Vodka, with a red, white, and blue label, which are the colours of the Russian flag. Sold only in Lithuania at that time, a company spokesperson said that the name had its origin in the tree "putinas"[7] (the Lithuanian name for the genus Viburnum[8]).
