[Slavs trampling each other in order to be the first one to yell "kvass"]

I drank it straight from an old soviet tank sold in a parking lot. It tasted exactly like I expected.

It does not taste like wet bread if that's what you are afraid of. Also not like nonalcoholic beer. It's kind of hard to describe it, but it is a normal / not too weird tasting drink. Quality and taste varies quite a bit between different brands.

There are also many that are not true kvass, but drinks with kvass flavouring so that's another thing to keep in mind.

"Wet bread", that is exactly how it looks like :-) But who cares, i would totally try it. Maybe i can get it at one of our "east-european"-markets if that's a popular thing. Thanks for the details :)
