Aug 23, 2007 The commercial description is as confusing as the taste of this beer. The aroma is sweet as expected with paper and malt. The appearance is amber with floaters and a thin head with NO FOAM. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. This is one to avoid.

Jul 24, 2007 slightly hazy gold with a large foamy white head. flavors of light honey, tangy malts, hint of sour citrus(lemon), chewy caramel, and even some spice(clove?). a very nice pale.

Feb 24, 2007 Bottle... Clear yellow lager with a mid-sized, creamy/frothy, white head. Good retention. Mead-like aroma... wildflower honey. Flavor of sweet, pale malts... reminiscent of those old time, chewy, Luden’s honey cough drops. Crisp hop balance. Light-bodied with moderate carbonation. Short, crisp finish.

Jan 9, 2006 500 ml bottle from Blue Max in Burnsville, MN (I think). Looks pretty nearly identical to the same brewer’s Zamkowe that I just had, giant frothy head leaving lots of lacing, atop a golden body...though this one is a bit hazier and darker....some small amount of sweet malt in the nose, a touch of old lemon, honey and grass....light, clean, crisp flavor, bit citrusy, grassy...somewhat lighter-bodied than the Zamkowe but overall just a touch more character with even a nice hint of sharpness at the finish.

Sep 22, 2005 Yellow with an anti-freeze glow/haze and a big, cream-tinted white head that faded quickly to a film. The malts in this smelled really good... bready, almost "cookie" with an odd grape/caramel combo. Slight cardboard smell in the background. Flavor was lacking... bitter and sour with green leaves and a bit of lemon. Malts came out later... it was actually a little better as it warmed (which I’ve never witnessed before in a Polish lager). Palate held the essence of grapeskin, sour and dry with light astringency. This beer was not the worst. It started great but came up short.
