Beer In Ads #552: Russian Beer Queen

February 28, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is for a Russian brewer, though which one is a bit of a mystery, primarily because I don’t know the cyrillic alphabet. Though I’m pretty sure “Mockba” is Moscow, so that’s probably where the brewery is/was located. But the woman with the beer looks like she’s wearing a crown and holding a wreath of hops and barley.

    It does say Moscow in the bottom-right, but also says St Petersburg in the bottom left. This brewery, Kalinkin, was based in St Petersburg. It was the predecessor of Stepan Razin, now owned by Heineken.

      Cool, that’s what I thought. I’m going to have to start paying you a consultancy fee. Thanks again, J.
