Kompania Piwowarska

500 ml can, bought at a polish shop in Arnhem. ABV 4,5%. Poured into a Guinness pint glass. Very nice appearance, with deep orange copper colour and a big white head, two fingers tall, soapy with good retention. It even left some lacing around the glass. Aroma is fruity as expected, with lots of sugars. Smells like candy, the kind of sweets you know all the aromas are artificial bt you still want some. Taste is quite sweet of course, with lots of fruits notes. Cherries, strawberries, forest fruits, you name it. But it doesn’t have that sickening sweetness other beers have, so here’s a positive point. Very thin on the body with light carbonation. Overall, I got more than I expected from this one. First, it’s a beer mix but with a beer percentage of 94%, so at least you get a good amount of beer. Then, I was sure it was going to be one of those fruit beers targeted mostly to women, but it surpised me pleasanlty, as I said it doesn’t have this sickening sweetness but on the contrary it manages to be refreshing. Long story short, a very good fruit beer/beer mix and at last one which worths its money.
