Kotikalja is the Finnish version of kvas, which is ubiquitous across Eastern Europe.

There's a Tibetan/Bhutanese/north Indian barley version of this too, known as chhang.

Chhang generally reaches around 4-6%, but it is also a generic word for that fermented barley drink, so maybe other regions brew it at a lower ABV.
