Quoting: FISZ, Post #48 I've recently been drinking Zywiec porter. I'm starting to like these. Strong too Yeah I really like that zywiec porter. I never could find it in warsaw last year though.

Really? It's easily acquired in New Jersey. Why would it be so hard to find in Poland? have you ever tried Black Boss Porter? Exceptional porter. Also may be hard to find. Brewed in Witnica...wherever that is. I couldn't even locate it on a PL map. Highly recommended. 9.4%

Oh you're in Jersey? I can tell you exactly where to get it then. Let me know if you want info.

Zywiec as 1st choice but I'd take Tyskie, too. The ones I'm not crazy about are Okocim or polish Haineken or Lech; the last one makes me puke!

I really though that Zwiec was the best until I tried Bosman. Have you tried this? It may only be available in the north.

I think some results could be somewhat confusing --- you guys say one beer is good, another is better. But the question is - when do you "assess" the taste of the beer? You should know 3rd beer in a row may not taste as well as the first in the day (or vice versa.

I usually drink only 1 type at a time. Not to confuse my taste buds.

For me the first beer on a particular day doesn't usually taste good - after 3rd or 4th (I mean - in the Polish bottles - 0.5 l, not 0.33 l or 0.25l ) - it's delicious....

FISZ, I've tried Bosman. It's ok. I can get it where I live but still would stick to cold Zywiec. I'm truely enjoying the first one on a really hot day like today - can take half glass at one time easy on day like we had today (it was 25 C - which is kind of hot for this time of a year)

Quoting: Kowalski, Post #54 or Lech; the last one makes me puke! I find that offensive!! Frankly speaking, I always considered Tyskie as a indigent version of Lech.

I used to work at Lech brewery shortly some time ago... Warka drama

Hevelius! I haven't seen it in stores in Poland during my last visit last year, but I remember drinking it in high school almost 10 years ago. (good times!) it's like 8% alcohol and has a really unusual flavor. last week I had Hevelius in the Polish restaurant in San Francisco!!!

I like Lezajsk. But the problem is I don't know which brand is even Polish anymore since many were bought by foreign beer companies.

cheers to all Warka Strong/ Lech Mocne lovers

I didn't know girls like strong beer (girls don't usually like beers, no?)

FISZThreads: 31 Posts: 2,607 Joined: Jun 14, 06 ♂	Oct 14, 06, 10:25 #78
My gf drinks beer. She also likes Warka strong. most women in Pl add juice "sok".

mono	Oct 14, 06, 10:26 #79
They add juice as they think it then won't be as strong as without juice...

FISZThreads: 31 Posts: 2,607 Joined: Jun 14, 06 ♂	Edited by: FISZ Oct 14, 06, 10:28 #80
Could be, but it's more of a concentrated juice so theres really not much added. She likes it strong anyway I don't care for it though. I'm not into sweet beer.

OK, Tyskie. Where are those times gone, when even small towns had their own breweries ? Before the II WW, for instance, there were breweries in Opole, Grodków (however those towns were still within German Reich). It's a pity that those factories lay in ruins now.

ola123	Oct 16, 06, 08:05 #83
I bought recently "dog in the fog" ...whatever..... didnt like it . Only Tyskie .

Tyskie is ok....but that's all

Has anyone had Perła mocne? Is this a new one?

Zywiec

Edited by: Zywiec Nov 13, 06, 07:23 #86

Has anyone seen all the beers listed on this website:
yespils.com/index.php?path=sel

There are some I've never heard of. They seem to be regional... I never saw beers like "Kujawiak" in Warsaw or Krakow pubs/clubs.

When I was in Poland, I stuck to Zywiec, Okocim, and Lech. Zywiec seemed to be the best (and most common). A local female told me that only girls drink Lech (anyone agree with that?), so I avoided it later in my trip.

Can't wait to get back to PL to enjoy a cold one or two... or 10.

I would say Okocim... They had it at a soccor game in York Ville In Illionois while I was there visiting and it was GOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
