I got this beer at a reduced price at work, $0.99 for a 1 pint 0.9 oz bottle and it was all dusty and looked very old. There's no date on the bottle so there's no telling when it was brewed. It still looks and tastes pretty fresh though..
Appearance - Pours a light brown/yellow color with an inch-thick white head that lasts about a minute.
Smell - Strong alcohol aroma mostly.. along with feint bread, malts, and grains.
Taste - Citrus, caramel, corn, bread, malts, a slight bitterness, and an alcohol bite in the finish.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied and medium carbonation.
Overall - This isn't HORRIBLE but I don't enjoy it. The alcohol flavor is pretty strong in the aftertaste.

A: The pour is extremely pale yellow color with a thin white head.
S: Smells of lemons and apples. Light malt notes with plenty of adjuncts and grass. Underneath the initial sourness, there is a decent sweetness to it.
T: Lots of malt notes, surprisingly. A decent sweetness that is not cloying or offensive. Some light bitterness and grass notes with just a touch of lemon zest.
M: Light in body with a medium carbonation.
O: Of the Polish beers I've had, this is one of the better ones.

500ml bottle. This beer was retired but now it is being brewed again by Okocim.
It looks like other Polish pale lagers, with a slightly orange tinged deep gold and a white head. This one dissipated pretty quickly but leaves some lacing.
The smell is standard Polish pale fair. There seems to be a heightened maltiness but overall it is pretty standard.
The taste is a bit tangier than most of this style. It has a nice roasted malt character and some more malt sweetness on top of that. The hops aren't there too much, just a slight bitterness but overall this one works pretty well.
The mouthfeel is more or less standard though this one is more drinkable in my book.
Overall a slightly above average Polish lager.
