Bottle. Medium-yellow fizz with a white head. What a mess. A mess of not much, anyway. Some dust and cardboard and in a huge way aluminum on the nose. Watery, nothing body. Virtually flavorless, which, frankly, is something of a relief after smelling it. I apologize for buying and rating this beer. <sigh>

Boring golden appearance, thin. Cheap aroma of corn malt/ sweet. Flavor is only a little better than the aroma. Touch of malty corn like sweetness, but it actually has a touch of bitterness. Not too good.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - OCT 12, 2006
Bottled. Clear deep golden, brief head. Aroma of boiled vegetables. Overly sweet and sugary, absolutely no hops detected. Hard, somewhat sticky mouthfeel, a touch of bread, notes of pea soup and alcohol. No bitterness. A beer for those that wants a cheap buzz, but don’t care about flavour.

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 TheJester (1230) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 25, 2006
500 mL bottle, 7%. Gold with a touch of orange. Solid head. Very grassy aroma, with a bit of something... tangy. . . at the end. Quite sweet. Just a hint of the alcohol at the end. Both sweetness and alcohol taste increase as the beer warms. Not really much else going on.

Drank this immediately after the standard Okocim Beer - lighter colour, and longer lasting head. Still little aroma, not as sweet, alcohol very obvious. Fuller aftertaste with some hops.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 highlandlad (1319) - Blue Mountains, AUSTRALIA - SEP 4, 2006
Bland, drinkable European strong lager. A fair choice if you like your alcohol unimpeded by distractions like aroma or flavour. Mocne has the rich golden body of a typical European strong and poured with a short, quick-diminishing head. The aroma is sweet and sticky with sugars, plus corn, corn and corn. Medium bodied and quite oily, presumably due to the gravity. Aided by moderate carbonation. Clean tasting, which is another way of saying it has little flavour beyond fusel alcohol, sugar and an unpleasant graininess. Faint hoppy buzz in a warming swallow. Too spiritous in the finish for my palate. Like being beaten over the head with a bottle of hooch. (500ml bottle from Liquor on Parade, KIngsford; best before 6/10/06)
