I found both dark and light rye bread at the store but it was the factory-made kind. I definitely made mistakes with both batches including adding way too much bread to the light kvass.the bottles need a day to carbonate then we shall see how well they turned out. Not that I have any reference for the flavor.
here in Russia we making Квас (Kvas) mostly in summer, and you can buy in shops (but with many sugar and additives). Try this one 1. (classic)
I had no idea there was rice and oat kvass, thanks for the link.
And bread... mostly it doesn't matter, from shop or self made
Kvass flavor is generally light and fresh, bread-like, a bit sour, can be lightly sweet, floral - a lot depends on ingredients and technology.
It has a softer aftertaste and is generally low on that smell after you drank it compared to beer.
Source: Russian, drank a lot of kvass
I brewed beer for years but I don’t recall hearing of this kvass.
NEAT!!
what’s your abv? What’s your recipe?
Kvass is a Slavic drink highly popular in the Slavic countries. It is lighter than beer (considered non-alcoholic in most places, alcohol content is typically below 1,5%vol), very refreshing and just nice. You should give it a try!
