If I went to Russia I would probably try it. But I like to drink Lithuanian beer in Lithuania!
I can buy the Baltika beer in USA, btw.

Nothing beats a Baltika 7 beer. Well maybe Baltika 9 but thats for alkies that cannot afford the $3 Vodka. I must add the $3 Vodka is much better than red label Smirnoff that is sold in the UK. Why do so many Brits think red Smirnoff is the dogs balls?

HI GD,
They have different percentages of vodka here. There are even some other types of drinks that go up to 75 percent that I have seen. Six years ago when I was here they had a honey drink that was 90 percent, not much taste, since the stuff burned! They sell Absenythe, thats 70 percent, it doesn't contain that special stuff to make you see things. I am told that isn't commonly found. I wouldn't say that I found any interesting beers, but lots of great beers. One beer was called Bear Beer, you guessed it the symbol was a bear! Not sure where thats from, not Lithuanian anyway. I have to look later.

Hello SONYtec. Sounds like you are having a great time. Watch out for that vodka. It is usually 50% not 40% as in the US. The weather sounds good but maybe a bit cool at night. Don't worry about the reciepe. My wife found a whole lot of them on the net. Did you find any interesting beers? Always good to hear from you. GD. PS. There is a drink in that part of the world called aqua vit. I believe it is latin for water of life. Great stuff. Be warned it is rocket fuel but very smooth. Like vodka but stronger and usually served ice cold in small glasses with cheese and smoked herring. Two or three glasses and you will be speaking fluent Russian. GD.

GD,
I will try to get a recipe. It seems to me that it is made by the old way of a pinch of this and that. I listed some of the items that are used in the other post which I bumped for you. I will be in Lithuania on Saturday afternoon.

Hello SONYtec. You may want to make contact with Den45 or the other ATF. They are both Russian. You will need a Russian speaking person to access Ruairguns. Not sure of the spelling.There is a fellow there selling the russian valve and gasket. Although I think Mike Tong's is very close if not better. Talking about beer/alaus. There is a very rare beer made in different countries on the Baltic. It is called a Baltic Porter. I khow for sure it is made in Poland,Finland, Sweden and Estonia.There was a large Estonian brewery before the war that made it and is now brewing again. You should also find it in Lithuania. Very high octane but is suppose to be great. The weather when you go should be very good. Maybe 18-24 degree C or 66-74F. Cool at night time. Also it won't get dark to about 11.30 PM and the sun will rise again at about 4AM. Enjoy your trip. GD. PS If you or your wife has recipe for Kugelis please sent it along when you have time.

Is their anyone who visits this site live in Lithuania? Let me know, say hi.
I am going back to Lithuania to visit soon, end of April to middle of May. I have seen video on You Tube of drozd from a couple Lithuanians, so I know some folks have them. I wonder if I would be able to get the Russian made valve there.
