A Little Help? Can Anyone Read Russian?
My sister-in-law and her fella stayed over with us recently, on their way to (and back from) their holiday in Russia (St Petersburg, Moscow and a river cruise in-between). “Bring me back a Russian beer!” I cheekily suggested. And they did:
Okay, so I’m guessing this is an actual Russian bottle of Baltika – but that’s just from the shape of the lettering. Can anyone shed any light? Am I right, or does the pronunciation of the cyrillic alphabet mean I’m actually looking at something completely different?
I’m also guessing it’s a lager, but I reckon that’s a no-brainer: green bottle, very pale beer. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong though. And if that wording under the ’2′ turns out to mean ‘non-alcoholic’ then I’m going to be properly miffed…
