Yellow. Light gold, little going on in the nose. Very bready, somewhat sweet and adjuncty.

Clear gold with a white head. Biscuity aroma. Taste is malt with caramel notes and light herbal hops. Better than I expected.

500 ml bottle, date on back label of 12.11.10. I’m not sure if it’s a best by or a bottled on date. Served in a nonic pint glass, the beer pours a mostly clear dark gold color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. Aroma is bready and sweet malt, along with some corn. Doesn’t smell bad, but it doesn’t smell good, either. Taste is pretty much all grainy malt, along with a bit of bittering hops. Not bad, but not good either. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it’s a bit coating and is well carbonated. For the style, it’s not a bad brew. It’s not something I would drink very often, but if you can find a single bottle it’s worth trying. If I remember correctly, I think this was pretty cheap to buy.

500 ml bottle, no date. Pours a decent orange/gold with a highly active large creamy white head that lasts and lasts before receding to some nice lacing. The smell is typical euro pale fare, just some pale malts. The taste is average for the style, it seems slightly heartier, but overall the same’ ol same ’ol.

16.9oz bottle. Anything labeled "Premium" is gonna be sketchy. Filtered orange-yellow. Fluffy, soapy head. Off pungent Eastern-European factory swill aroma. Relatively straightorward trash Lager..A Pils? ..yeah right. Considering this beer probably costs like 17 cents in Poland, it’s tolerable. Sugary, extract tasting stuff. Some medium dark malt tones, reminiscent of that Mocne taste. Could actually get used to this one, not entirely reprehensible.

Cool, has a serial number on the bottom of the label. Mine says brewed by Litowel Breweries. Big pour into a 22 oz glass mug. A little smell of somewhat veggie hops but in a pleasant way. Big white creamy head that fades to a blanket. Yep, its above 5% and tatses like it. Some shades of cheap american pale high gravity but that goes away at times. Has a somewhat acceptable sizzle on the palate, but that fades too as the session continues. Very nice lacing like a wet white wifebeater tanktop on rachel welch in the 1960’s. Not bad overall, never quite gets to american malt liqour attributes.

500mL bottle, BB 11/12/10. Poured clear, bright golden with a short, tightly-bubbled white head. The aroma picked up honey and pale malts with just a little airy earth present.. some corn syrup as it warmed up. The flavor found honey and corny vegetal malts throughout.. sweeter honey was marginally tasty on the finish.. there was an element of dank on the middle that I couldn’t figure out.. OK overall. Light-bodied, dry, and grainy on the palate.. too syrupy to be refreshing.

clear bubbly yellow gold, medium white head, quite lacy. nice clean (if mild) malty nose, trace of grain, lemony. flavor is musty malt, grain and lemon. medium bodied, kinda sparkly mouth feel, lightly bitter finish. a nice pils. not exciting but refreshing and repeatable. a cheap. single bottle purchase from binny’s orland park.

bottle. bready lemons. doughy dirt. muddy grainy corn. didn’t like. not a typical pils. too much cardboard.

Best thing about this beer is the aroma. Poured with an off white, smallish, quickly fading head and no lace. Color is gold. Aroma is grain, hops, grass, malt, fresh beer. Flavor is simpler - malt bitter sweet. Body is ok and carbonation is a bit fizzy. Finish is like flavor and of medium length with bitterness finishing the tapering off. Nothing special, but better than world beers or American macros.

Deep amber gold hue with a light khaki head. Nose is largely toffee along with hints of almonds. There is also some old sweat sock. The taste is a mostly metallic almonds along with some bread crust. There is also a black tea finish. I actually enjoyed this slightly meaty tasting brew.
