straw colored pour with sturdy carb and head. aroma is sweet pectin, closer to an american malt liquor then the often vegetative ESL it swears allegiance to. flavor is grainy malts and more pectin, finish of light and quickly fleeting bitterness. surprising lack of fusels.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Cornfield (5240) - Oak Forest, Illinois, USA - JAN 1, 2010
Bottle from the Kenwood in Homer Glen, IL: This "Truly Polish" (from the label) beer pours a deep golden body with a short-lived fizzy head. The aroma is apple and a grainy sweetness with a splash of alcohol. The "Characteristic Taste" (also from the label) is soft apples, bread and grain, alcohol, and a light btterness. All ths goodness must come from the "Prolonged Brewing"... again from the label. The beer is drinkable... and the importers are idiots.
