Russian beers

Jeff was recently in Moscow for work. He had a few beers, but one thing he spoke of that he enjoyed was a drink called kvass.

According to Wikipedia:

Kvass is a fermented beverage made from black or regular rye bread. The colour of the bread used contributes to the colour of the resulting drink. It is classified as a non-alcoholic drink by Russian standards, as the alcohol content from fermentation is typically less than 1.2%. Overall, the alcohol content is low (0.05% - 1.0%).  It is often flavoured with fruits or herbs such as strawberries, raisins or mint.

Jeff said he liked the kvass - something he had with lunches. Certainly something to try if you go to Russia.

He also had these beers:

"I knew I'd find you again, Franziskaner!" he wrote on Facebook when he enjoyed this German beer.

For this one he said, "Not your stinky old NA Budweiser."

And then there was this. He wasn't even sure it was beer. (If anyone has any idea about what it is, let us know!)
