Description
Established in 1892 by one of the members of most famous and respectful brewery families of that period, Zenona Anstadta, from the beginning Brewery was valued by the deep taste of polish beer.
In Year 1916 property was acquired by family of Magierkiewicz and stayed under their management till breakout of World War II. Brewery was functioning in times of German occupation providing working space for the local population.
Next owner was family of Blusiewicz, which was running the brewery in years 1947-1951. In the end of 1951 Brewery was nationalized and incorporated into Brewery Department of Lodz. In the brake of 1996 and 1997 family of Blusiewicz reclaimed their rights to Brewery and begun beer production as a family company under the name of Browar Staropolski.Modernization of the Brewery allowed to increase the production power up to 100 thousands hectoliters of beer per year.
The end of XX century was a very successful year for the Brewery and management decided to export their products to USA and UK, where it become very popular among Britons and American Poles. Brewery was sold in 2007 due to the weak strategy in fighting for the consumer on the brewery market, at that time mainly dominated by large corporations. Following years were very difficult for Staropolski Brewery, which resulted in Brewery bankruptcy.
In 2014 Brewery was bought by Dystrybucja Pomorze, private limited company.

From a gas station between Krakow and the Polish border. Old gold body, small white head. All of these seem to look the same. Dry malty caramelly aroma, OK. Malty taste, some caramel, light herbal bitternes, quite well executed. Slightly too caramelly but generally quite OK, a good lager - though don’t come expecting a true pils I guess.

From a gas station somewhere between Krakow and the Slovak border. Clear (hm) old gold body with a tiny white head. Dry, caramelly, papery aroma. Dry flat caramelly taste, mild dogfood, OK. NO hoppiness, papery, dry - little to no sweetness, but OK drinkablility. Had far worse, but I wouldn’t try it again at the price it went for.

Barwa złota, zamglone, piana biała, średniej wielkości, umiarkowanie trwała. W aromacie brzoskwinia, chmiel, nieco sztuczny. W smaku słodkie, mało podbudowy pszenicznej, brzoskwinia, nieco mdłe. Goryczka niska, wysycenie średnie. Nie za dobrze.

Damn. Can‘t believe I‘m the first one to rate this.... Can from a gas station. 7.4%. Old golden body and a somewhat lasting small white head. Dry malty aroma. Empty, very dry taste, vaguely herbal. Impressively enough, no alcohol in the aroma. You can try much worse than this...

Bottle from a random Polish gas station. Old gold body with a small white head. Full sweetish grainy malty dry aroma. Good background maltiness, creamy, dusty herbal hoppy touches, some slightly rough bitterness and light alcohol. Light pepperiness too. OK really, much more so than expected.

Barwa ciemno brunatna, rubinowe refleksy. Piana dość jasna, długo się utrzymuje, ładnie oblepia szkło. W aromacie słodko, dominują maliny. Smak to głównie gorzka czekolada, bombonierka, wiśnia w czekoladzie. Dobre chociaż czuć, że jest nieułożone. Warto poleżakować kilka butelek.

Barwa złota, klarowne, piana biała, niska, niezbyt trwała. W aromacie słodowe, słodkawe. W smaku słodkawe, mokre zboże, lekko brzeczkowe. Goryczka niska, minimalnie do średniej, przesycone, ciało w normie, mała pijalność. Kiepskawy lager, nie ma tu się nad czym rozwodzić.
