David- YUP :) Kvass soda is a weird one i must say! (they sell it everywhere
in russian neighbourhoods here)
Or you can just make your own kvass from bread and yeast and sugar -
seriously - takes very little effort and i just use a galon water jug.

Baltica - sadly anything thats mass produced begins to taste mass produced.
also beer is best served within weeks of bottling. i have swiched to
brooklyn brewery since its very fresh, may not be very complex but i'll take
fresh any day.
