The Kolos brewery in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk makes some excellent beers, particularly their Bir Rinzo and Pivzavod Sahalinskij, but in the newly acquired Russian tradition, they pump out 10 other brands from their hoses as well, and serve them on their own brewpub on the brewery grounds on Sakhalinskaya Street (http://beeradvocate.com/b...). Interestingly Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is not the only city with its own beer â almost every major town on the island, despite their modest size, has a local brewery.
