12 ounce bottle from City Market in Burlington VT (December 2007), sampled a few minutes out of the fridge from a Christoffel glass. Voluminous head fills over 1/2 the glass, dying slowly atop the very clear light gold-straw body and leaving feathery lacing....slight grainy nose has just a faint whiff of industrial/plastic noxiousness, but is not skunked....sweet, quite cloying, syrupy front fades quickly and is replaced by a bitter, rather metallic/mineralic quality that carries through to the finish....carbonation is on the low side; faint hoppy notes do occur after a few sips, and the industrial quality fades a bit though it never goes away entirely. On the whole, drinkable but not good at all.

Aug 19, 2008 50cl bottle.
Pours blonde/golden, white head.
Aroma is grainy and hoppy, not much else worth noticing.
Taste of a typical lager hoppy, grainy, light malts.
Nothing special, leaves a nasty crisp metallic fizzy feeling on the tongue and palate.

Aug 15, 2008 I really like the bottle cap from this beer. Fits in nicely with my collection. Oh right, the beer. Easy drinking, light bodied lager.

Aug 7, 2008 Polish lagers all taste pretty similar in my opinion. Nothing really jumps out as being amazing about any of them, but like all the others, this one is a good brew. Well balanced, though a bit watery.

Aug 7, 2008 500 ml bottle from Binnys.
Looks like any standard pale lager. More smell for sure than the standard. Aroma of lager malt, some hops, and a little sweet corn smell...which means i’m betting it was made with corn. More of a pronounced bitterness than most lagers and leaves a lingering aftertaste, which is quite good, actually. Refreshing, crisp, and i have to agree with "JohhnyZ" that it tastes better right out of the bottle. High ABV for a lager..hell yea, Polish pride!

Aug 4, 2008 Bottle, cool looking bottle and cap but the quality of beer in the bottle doesn’t measure up at all. It has some malt but not really anything to write home about. I liked it as a beer but not enough to buy again
