Are there any popular Russian Christmas beers? Also, can you translate the label that's linked inside?

Response by poster: I found this label. Can you translate it for me?

I believe it says "Bochkarev [name of the beer] celebrates the new year!" The Comic Sans is a nice touch.

It says "Bochkarev wishes you a happy new year!"

Literally, "congratulates you on the New Year," but it has the same sense as "wishes you a merry Christmas."

Thanks for the clarification, nasreddin. My Russian skills grow weaker by the minute. I really must practice ...
