Russian winter. These guys were looking for firewood, for a fire to keep warm. Cold makes people despirate. And, knowing a little of russian rural culture in the winter, i think it safe to say alcohol may have been a factor.

Does Georgia not have Russian Winters, or Russian Rural Culture?

No, AFAIK no snow, and very much different rural and overall culture.
