Because I live in Poland, I frequently drink beer, and I have never came upon Stella in a Polish Pub or in a shop. Have you?

I am going to Poland in September so will have a look. I am surprised it is quite popular beer in general.

Certainly not!

And now seriously, I managed to find something that might be the answer for our question.

Niezaspokojone pragnienie księży
Jacek Szlak (1 czerwca 2005)

Polscy aktorzy grają w zagranicznych reklamach
Księża, bawiąc się na ślizgawce, poczuli pragnienie. Decyzja zapada szybko – posyłają młodego kleryka po piwo. Ten po chwili wraca, jednak gdy obciążony cennym ładunkiem wstępuje na lód, tafla załamuje się pod nim. Co zrobią jego „bracia”? Reklama piwa Stella Artois to znakomity film z doborową obsadą. Dość powiedzieć, że prowodyra gra Zbigniew Zamachowski, a pod lód trafia Wojciech Klata (ten sam, który jako dziecko utonął w pierwszej części „Dekalogu” Kieślowskiego). Ani piwo, ani reklama (mimo obsady) nie są w Polsce dystrybuowane.

The last sentence says "Neither the beer, nor the commercial (despite its cast) are distributed in Poland".

How is EB? It's one of the few that I've never tasted.

Quoting: FISZ, Post #38 How is EB? Well, I think EB used to be one of the most famous Polish beers back in the 90-ties -- mostly because (young) Polish people could see a professional EB commercial on MTV. Now I'm not sure if that's so popular, but I think it tastes pretty good.

I think that's what Stella drinks

according to an author of the article, i read about stella ad, EB was sunk by its own commercial.do you remember 2 guys pissing on the snow in the shape of EB logo? after this the sell of this product went down very quickly.is it the reason?i don't know.i remember that EB was a very tasty beer but after a few years its taste has changed and i didn't like it

yes i know but when ive read bolo"s post my first thought was "he must be from poland!" Anyway, i was realy surprised when i noticed how much english men drink I can say that they are similar to polish but in fact polish beer is stronger

They drink a lot in America too. The most popular is "Miller" and "Pabst". But now they have"Miller-lite" so you don't get too fat.

polacaThreads: 1 Posts: 80 Joined: Sep 4, 06 ♀	Sep 7, 06, 09:17 #50
I dont like miller (maybe is not the same as in america) but english stella is a good one

hello	Sep 7, 06, 09:21 #51
all these "millers" and "buds" are yuck -- water + carbon gas + sugar (as they add sugar to everything they can in the us).

Shelley	Sep 7, 06, 09:22 #52
American beers give me a headache the day after so I steer clear - oh yes Stella is very good!

Quoting: hello, Post #82 (as they add sugar to everything they can in the us). You're right. Everything has sugar. Even stuff that doesn't taste sweet has hidden sugar in it. I was surprised they add sugar to cole-slaw and BBQ's because you can't even taste it.

Shelley	Sep 7, 06, 10:23 #54
I prefer gin anyway....nice and refreshing and great with tonic......and none of that slimline rubbish - full fat for me thanks! I did notice that a g n t in Poland was about the same price as in the UK

Quoting: Shelley, Post #83 American beers give me a headache the day after so I steer clear Yes, but how many different American beers have you tried? Maybe just the mass produced garbage. Need to try things like: Impaled Ale Long Trail Hibernator Double Bastard Ale Brooklyn Beer

I agree that some of Polands beer tastes better than our Budweisers, Coors and Millers, but we have hundreds more to choose from. Every state has one or a few micro brews. ...and of course the PL Vodka is absolutely the best...to get back to the topic. My homemade will be ready in a week. I can't wait because it's been over 5 mos
