Okocim Mocne
Browar Okocim S.A. (Carlsberg)

From a 500ml can dated BB 25.10.2026. pored into a pint glass. Poured into pint glass. A big three finger bubbly white head on a clear light amber. Good head retention, it soon diminishes to a persistent layer. Sheets of foamy lacing.

Malts in the nose. The taste is sweet grains and malts up front. A dry finish.

A medium/light body and good carbonation. The ABV is well hidden. Overall a decent European Strong Lager. Skipping the faults that many of these have. Better than expected.

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, 500mL in a pint glass. From The Roundhouse Centre LCBO on Howard Ave. in nearby Windsor. Best before October 25/26. My 1st beer from the Brzesko, Poland brewery. Audaciously adored by Sundae the cat...

 

 

Canned in a big old tallboy can and purchased from a Polish easy mart style shop
Pours a crystal clear golden with big if forced white head
Aroma is coppers and barley sugars

Rerate, 500 ml can, as Okocim Premium Mocne, shared by my beerpal Olav. ABV is 7.1%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Sweetish aroma of malts and candy. Moderate carbonation, soft mouthfeel. Malty sweet flavour, rounded and mellow.

Original rating: 500 ml bottle, in Poland. Golden colour, large head. Pleasant aroma of aromatic hops, fruity. Flavour is malty and slightly alcoholic, but nice.

De color dorado, con un centímetro espumoso de rápida desaparición. Aroma herbáceo. En boca es muy débil, con un pequeño dulzor y poco mas. Insípida.

Purchased from LCBO in Ontario, Canada. 500ml can poured into a glass stein. Very lively carbonation from the pour that resulted in a 2" head, but that dissolved relatively quickly to 1/4 and lingered through the drink. Attractive golden colour and beads of carbonation rising throughout the drink. Smells of malt. Taste is likewise and slightly sweet with corn notes and chocolatey as others have noted, but not nearly as sweet as other strong euro beers I've had lately. Very respectable for the price and I would probably enjoy this moreso in the dark / cold autumn & winter months, than in the summer. As long as I don't get the dreaded Polish beer next-day hangover from this one, I will definitely purchase again.

 

 

 

 

Out of all the 7% Polish beers that I have tried, this one seems to be a little less sweet on the finish than the others, which is why I like it. Many of the stronger Polish beers I have tried have a tendency to be quite sweet, which is not what I want in a beer! This beer, although still a bit sweet, has a bit more body than the others I've tried, there's a bit more malt flavour in this one. It's worth a try! You can buy this beer in a half litre can at my local shop for about £1.10 ponds/$1.47 dollars. It's not going to blow your mind, but at the price you're paying, you can't complain.

500ml Can in 1 Minute shop, Warsaw (4.05 PLN):
This one was quite a surprising beer & one that I found myself enjoying much more than I thought I would. There was a lot of early sweetness that was coupled with a few sticky malts & some pleasant vanilla flavours; excellent stuff for the style & one I'd have again.

Aroma is malts and very slightly off sweetness. The flavor is malts, mild/medium sweetness, a bit of graininess in the middle and a mix of slight alcohol and hops in the finish.
