16.9 oz Bottle - Polish Beer

C: Light Golden color. Filtered clear. Pours with about 1 and 1/2 inch of head, which dissipates in about 2 minutes and leaves behind no lacing.

S: Sweet. Malty. Spicy lager type smell.

T: Sweet with a very light bitter finish.

M: Clean. Crisp. Good Carbonation (for a lager). Carbonation may be a little high for some folks, but i feel that its fitting for a lager and gives it its crisp feel. The beer itself is a little watery. - 3

D: Other than the carbonation it's a pretty easy drink. Nothing exceptional.

OVERALL GRADE: C-

Standard stuff here: completely clear pale yellow-goldbeer with a bubbly, somewhat spritzy head that, like so many, talks big and drops fast. It does, however, leave a touch of spotting as it goes.
A bit of lemon zest under grains and a light, bready sort of malts presence makes up the very light aroma. Combined with a strange funkiness, it's a little below average.
The flavor doesn't vary much, but the funk is fortunately missing. Along with something like a corn husk-like adjunct flavor, there is a nice, light note of herbal and floral hops that prove that at least hops are in here.
The feel is almost, but not quite, par for the course: very light-bodied, big on crispness, a bit heavily carbonated. Eurp pale lagers can even be good, something I don't believe of AALs or adjuncts in particular, so I know this mouthfeel isn't to par. Light doesn't have to mean thin. It is clean, though.

Got this at the Polonus restaurant in Wyandotte. Served in a mug.

A: Pours a golden yellow color with a shorter white head with medium amounts of lacing.

S: Heavy presence of grains, wheat, grass

T: Hmmm, kind of interesting, fairly sweet, wheat bread feeling, grassy as well, hint of hops and spices but just a hint.

M: Fairly carbonated, very light body, decent

O: Well, as soon as I saw that the bottles were twist off, I immediately knew it was probably not going to be too good but it wasn't bad, just another beer. I'd recommend but it won't be great, but not bad either.

Poured from bottle into a pint glass

Appearance – The beer pours a clear, lighter golden color with a one finger white head. The head fades rather fast to leave a light level of lace on the sides of the glass.

Smell – The aroma was rather mild, consisting of some light bready malts as well as a light caramel smell mixed with a bit of a grassy aroma.

Taste – The taste starts out with a lightly caramel sweetened malty and bready taste. As the taste advances the light caramel sweetness fades some, giving only a light level of sweetness overall to the taste. In the end a very light grassy and herbal hop taste come to the tongue, leaving a smooth and clean flavor to linger on the tongue.

Mouthfeel – The body of the beer is rather light overall with a thinner body and a slightly higher carbonation level. Both the higher carbonation and the thinner body create a very easy drinking brew and compliment well the crisp and clean taste that is left on the tongue at the end of the taste.

Overall – A decent and easy drinking lager with a fair level of refreshment. It is rather simple, but has no off flavors making it a good brew to drink when wanting something crisp and simple on a nice hot day while sitting and chatting with friends.

A: The beer is clear yellow in color and has a moderate amount of carbonation. It poured with a finger high white head that died down, leaving a patch of bubbles on the surface, a collar around the edge, and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light aromas of grassy hops are present in the nose along with hints of grainy malts.
T: The taste is similar to the smell, except that flavors of grainy malts are a little more prominent and notes of corn are noticeable. The hops contribute a light amount of bitterness, the latter of which lingers through the finish.
M: It feels light-bodied (but not watery) and a little clean on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation. The bitter finish leaves your mouth a little dry.
O: This beer is pretty easy to drink and is pretty good when compared to other beers in the style. It has a good amount of bitterness to help cut through the malts and hide some of the adjunct flavors.
