For fifteen years now, ever since the former FT correspondent Chrystia Freeland published her book 'Sale of the Century: Russia's Wild Ride from Communism to Capitalism' (2000), the Western journalists and academics who observed and described the post-Soviet evolution of Russia have almost all kept to the Medieval morality tale: good and evil, right and wrong, promise and betrayal.

Beer is brewed almost everywhere in the world, though the circumstances and conditions under which this takes place differ substantially. A look at countries that are not immediately regarded as being in the top league beer producers provides interesting impressions of the most diverse beer cultures.
