Clear golden color with a very thin white head: smell of a pale lager, very pale. The flavor was smooth, but very, very light and uninteresting. Poland’s version of Stella I guess. It was good for washing down pretzels while waiting for a plane in Warsaw, but don’t take that as a reason to travel there and try it. I don’t understand this style of beer: perplexed.

Savannah, Ga. - Habersham Beverages- 500 ml bottle - pours a medium golden with a pithy, quickly fading white head. wort-like aroma with hints of grain. Flavor has a hint of honey sweetness, some saaz hoppiness and some grainy notes. Mouthfeel is somewhat crisp. Had worse Eastern bloc lagers in my day.

This beer has a very light malt aroma. The appearance is pale gold with a nice head. The flavor is chemical like and dry. The palate is good for the style. While not totally terrible this beer is not good either.

Bottle: Pale yellow color, nice white head and thin lacing. The nose is lightly corny with some tortilla notes and light cheap hop and alcohol. The flavor is semisweet with a honey malt and cheap pilsner malt note, not quite husky or 2-row. The hops are very light, as expected. Light alcohol. Just a semidirty pale lager, not quaffable, not that drinkable. Well then, that about does it here.

.5 liter bottle. Hey, it is a nice looking beer with a good golden color. Smell, though, comes across pretty sugary on top of a standard lager smell. Taste is sorely lacking. Sugary malt just beyond syrup. No matching bitterness. I’d been finding some decent Polish beers, but this isn’t one of them.

gold with a small white head. sweet honey grain aroma. thin metallic watery flavor. light bodied. some honey and alcohol in flavor.

Bottle. Pours dark yellow color. Tastes worst than old style. Not a good pale lager.

Aroma is a little gritty. Like sweat. Pours a nice gold color. Not dark amber, but not a light yellow like American macros pour. Head disappears almost instantly. Has a nice bitter backdrop, though not in the aftertaste. i like the bitterness, but the finish is thin & weak. Good, not great. Paid $2.15 for a pint bottle at a liquor store in West Allis, WI. on 11/11/2K6.
