Okocim Mocne

Brewed by Carlsberg Polska
Style: European Strong Lager
Warszawa, Poland

0,5L can. Amber color, sweet malt or fruity aroma. Flavor is malty and full, can feel alcohol. Much better than many strong brews.

Bottle (7%) in trade from Snojerk321-poured into lager glass- poured transparent light golden yellow, white head went away rather quickly, light carbonation. Aroma of malt, corn, and faint hops. Hits the mouth with a medium body, malt is detectable but with a high sweet quality, finish has a mild alcohol note.

Botella 500 Ml. Una sorpresa grata. La verdad es qaue las cervezas polacas no estan tan mal

Kolor bursztynowy. Dosyć mocno zagazowane (może akurat na takie trafiłem - ale). Odbijało mi się przez jakiś czas po wypiciu i nie czuć tej mocy. Niby 7%

500ml can labeled 7.1%. Pours a yellowish amber with a medium body, subtle hops flavor and bitterness, medium body, slight chocolate character and even dry/sweet malty flavor balance. Not bad.

Okocim Mocne ABV: 7% Calories: 210 estimated Volume: 16.9 fl oz Glass: tulip Purchased at: Sherwood Liquors, Ewing, NJ Price per fl oz: $3 / 16.9 fl oz = $.17 per fl oz Consumed at: home sensory first impression: Big initial head goes down to nothing quickly. Aroma is nice and has some depth. Wispy but interesting lace and head. Beautifully carbonated and colored with golden, yellow and whitish hues. Taste is surprising, mobile in flavor. Dark, alcoholic, warm, and bold. It wants to be watery, but the alcohol betrays the effort. Knocks you over. Simple but very nice. Aroma/Olfactory: Malt flavor is: bread, hay, cereal, toast, and raw sugar. Hop flavor is: grassy, lightly citrusy. Yeast flavor is: doughy, moldy, dry Other flavors include: alcohol, corn, raisin Visuals/Appearance: Color is: bright, golden, yellow. Liquid is: clear, sparkling Head and lace are: minimal, off-white Taste/Flavor: Maltiness or Sweetness level is: medium Hoppiness or Bitterness level is: light Sour level is: medium Palate/Tactile: Body or Mouthfeel is: full Texture is: oily, slick, papery Carbonation is: lively visually, but flat tactile effect. Finish is: long and blunt. Overall experience: A very enjoyable malt liquor, if a bit overwhelming in effect. Aroma is omnipresent. Taste is blunt, almost dull, but definitely there. Not crisp or tight, but very heavy. I like it, though not as much as a stout, and nowhere near as much as a very good hoppy ale.

500 ml bottle, best before 24.06.08. Apparently this made it to the NSLC by accident with a shipment of their usual Okocim Pilsner (Jasne Pelne). Bright golden colour with a mostly lasting fizzy and creamy white head. Floral, toasty, spicy, and lightly herbal aroma with some cidery and grassy notes. Bready, toasty, and lightly grainy malt flavours with an herbal, lightly spicy, and alcoholic bitter finish. Medium bodied, quite quaffable though a bit prickly mouthfeel. The alcoholic bitterness blends with the hops to almost hide the strength while the drinkability conceals it completely. Much better than I was expecting. I hope they bring in Okocim Porter by accident next time.

0,5 l bottle from waitrose. golden colour, hardly any head. aroma of nail varnish and overripe apples. Sweet, hoppy quite watery and surprisingly light for a 7% strong lager.
