In Newport south Wales the Tesco and the Wetherspoons both stock Polish beer, it’s no more expensive than equivalent beers, the reason it appear expensive to Polish people is because of the UK tax which is higher than Poland, and of course it has to be imported.

In Cheltenham Tesco stocks beer and a limited range of Polish foods, and there are 2 Polish owned shops in the town with a more comprehensive range, again Wetherspoons stocks Polish beer.

So Polish foods and alcohol are available, when I was in Aberdeen in March the story was the same.

Personally I find Polish beers too strong in alcohol

I’m sure you are a big strong boy Greg, but if you met me I’m sure your first opinion wouldn’t be that I was a *****. I can drink for two, but it isn’t a trait that I particularly admire in myself or others, it’s just that I was brought up in a tradition where beer of 3.2% was quite normal and 4.2 was considered strong- stronger alcohol was available either as wine or spirits but was treated with due respect for its potency.

We have a term in the UK ‘session beer’, Polish beers don’t fit that description

Christ, I even forgot abut that beer. It was good once, but then somehow it became crappy. It's a real pity though. As for EB, I always wondered who actually buys that beer. Iit truly is a horrid one, just like Okocim.

What about Czech beer pilsner. Czech are suppose to make he best beer, above poland. I prefer strongbow than polish beer. I only like polish beer ebcauses its cheap and ok i guess. I took one can from the supermarket in Poland and some polish woman muttered something in polish to me and grinned and walked off, no idea what she said....................probably you alcoholic english so n so lol.

Yes.....Czech beer is really good. Tyskie is probably the closest to it. Bit of a hoppy flavor with a nice clean finish.
