Golden blonde. Light graininess in aroma and flavor. Clean tasting. Refreshing, with some encroaching tongues of malt. Slightly and watered finish.

A brown 50ml bottle drank 6 days before its best before date: June 2010: Poured into a half litre Berliner Kindl glass, it was the nearest I could get to Poland! Dull old gold colour with a good white head that fizzed down to a thin covering very quickly, then to nothing at all. Not a lot of aroma, some grains and hops maybe. The 7% alcohol is evident, but not a lot else. This is just a beer to get you drunk quick and it has no redeeming factors that I could find. I was looking forward to this beer, pick up in Shepperds Bush, London, where a lot of Polish shops have opened to cater for the Poles who have settled in the area. Sadly it is not what I was expecting at all.

In May 2011 I wrote this: This half litre brown bottle claims 6.00% ABV, obtained in London while visiting my son. Poured into a ’paderborner Goldpilsner’ vase and a smaller Budweiser Budvar tasting glass. Looked as good as any lager/pilsner when poured: good golden hue, large white head, clear and clean body. Sweeter than most Eastern Block pilsners, in both smell and taste, almost pleasant! Certainly better than a few I’ve tasted over the years. I expected bog stanard Euro Fizz, but this a whole lot better than that, in all aspects.

Bottle (Cambridge Cellars). Clear dark rose gold with a light beige head that doesn’t last. Aroma of toasted caramel, plums, grass. Very sweet with caramel, nuts. Slightly metallic drying finish. Alcohol shows up at the end just in case I’d forgotten to wonder why this is 6.9% if I’m not sleeping in newspapers.

500ml can. Pours a dirty gold with no head or life. Aroma is overly sweet and bitter apple and grapefruit. Taste is sweet. Christ, that’s sweet. I can feel my teeth melting. Some apple on the finish. Alcopop.

Pours with a near-perfect head (doesn’t stay long enough) and a gold body with no visible carbonation. Soft wood and hops aroma. Flavour is heavy with caramel and a hoppy finish. Not bad balance for a lager, really, and I’d probably choose this one over a number of worse lagers out there.

Originally rated September 2005. Best before 11/06/06 and bought at the LCBO. Labelled Zubr 1768 on the label and rated at 5.8% ABV. This Polish strong beer pours a golden colour with a touch of amber. The white head is bubbly and does not retain its shape too long. Patches of lacing are left though. The nose is pretty mild with small amount of hop (probably Saaz). Carbonation is very active with tiny bubbles. The taste has some bitterness to it from start to finish, but is mostly very smooth, just like its aftertaste. Slight grass and apples makes a comeback at the very end of its trail. Very, very smooth, with more grain malt then grass, which reminds me more of North American pils, then Euro pils. Good different Polish brew, but very smooth for a stronger one.
