50cl bottle from the Wine Compnay, Slough, labelled as EB Special. According to the label this is "The only Pils brewed in Poland that you can’t buy in Poland. Triple filtered for a fresh, crisp taste and exclusively for the UK." - but otherwise it seems to match this listing pretty well.

It’s a straw colour with a white head that rapidly fades; sweet corn syrup aroma; thin with a predominantly caramel flavour and a somewhate herbal finish. Drinkable, not not entirely pleasant.

500ml bottle. Clear pale yellow with small frothy white head. Faint aroma, bitter hop and some bread-like malt. Watery, dry taste on the edge to soapyness. Doesn’t make appetite to empty the whole bottle without real thirst.

Pale golden color. Well carbonated, but head doesn’t last. Grassy, adjunct laden aroma. Tastes like cheapo wine and metal tank lining. Definitely biting. Average lager all around.

500 ml bottle picked up at Toom in Landstuhl, Germany. Pours a light yellow color with a very small white head. Aroma is corn, skunk, and grain. Taste is a weak a watery grain. Palate is also watery has a lingering copper taste and is slightly offensive. Not good.

Im Antrunk leicht wässrig, ein wenig herb. Im Nachgeschmack wie schon erwähnt zartbitter und typisch polnisch sehr süffig. Test vom 8.3.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,10,12,9,14,10 - 10,05

Aroma is faint malt. Flavour is watery, light hoppy, light malty. Polish lawnmower.

Dark gold, loose, white, quickly dissipating head. Grainy, grassy, lightly corny aroma. Flavor is kinda fruity - grapes? I’m gonna say grapes. Grainy and grassy, as well. Not bad.

0.5l bottle, from Aachen. Clean dark golden color with thin white head. Sweet nose. Aroma has corn (I though it is a Hungarian trick) with grassy hoppy notes. Flavour is a bit sweet malty with growing bitterness. Quite an OK lager.
