It's not a brewery.

At least:
- it doesn't look like it has the parts needed to brew beer.
- it looks like it has exactly the parts for a standard water-cooling rig (awesomely steam-punkified)
- even cross-culturally, that plastic can in the back of one of the pictures is clearly anti-freeze; good for making your water-cooler hoses glow and not grow stuff; not so good in beer

I think someone made a joke about it being a brewery and the wink was lost in translation.

It's polish, not russian. Original forum thread here (in polish!) http://www.mod-planet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=42360 .

Not to mention that if it actually IS beer, it will be skunky:

Light + Beer = Gross.
