I like kvas very much. But most of kvas sold in bottles has nothing to do with real Russian homemade kvas. Good kvas can be also made out of квасное сусло and it comes out much cheaper.

Yes, when I was a little girl, kvas from cisterns was very tasty, but when I tried some last year that was awful. Probably there are some factories that make good kvas but you have to find them first.
