Zywiec
Zywiec
Style: Euro Pale Lager
ABV: 5.8%
Origin: Zywiec, Poland
"Now owned by Heineken Brewery, Zywiec was founded in 1856. This lager beer is a medium gold colour and has a white head that dissipates quite quickly. On the nose, there is a real tang of citrus, softened by a yeasty note and good hoppy aromas that are very fresh. On the palate, it is a beer with really good body and a creaminess of texture, but the flavours are sharp and focused, with lots of bitter hop oiliness and just a background warmth of toasty malt. Quite a generous, full-style of strong lager, but crisp too. Very enjoyable." - Tom Cannavan

Okocim - O.K. Pilsner
Okocim - O.K. Pilsner
Style: Euro Pale Lager
ABV: 5.6%
Origin: Brzesko, Poland
Okocim O.K. Pilsner has a deep golden yellow hue and pours with creamy white head. Spicy, markedly hop influenced aromas lend to its rich and rounded flavor. A medium bodied palate and snappy bitter hop finish make this a very stylish and distinctive pilsner.
ABOUT
Okocim O.K. Beer is the first variety of Okocim ever brought into the United States. The O.K. beer label remains mostly unchanged from its original design from nearly 40 years ago, which is a testimony to the spirit and vision of the brewer. The beer itself helped define the Polish Pils style, which in turn separated Polish brewing aside from the many other beers of Europe.
