Nomination for "Bomb of the Year 2013"

For St. Petersburg, $2 per liter is extremely cheap; I would be wary of drinking something that cheap. A reasonable price is considered to be 50 rubles or more for 0.5 liters. This includes Heineken, Hoegaarden, and similar brands. For $7, you're looking at premium brands or freshly poured beer from private breweries.
