Commercial Description:
It is of a beautiful dark golden colour with a deep lustre. It has the color of honey and the transparency of spring water, as well as an excellent body and taste. It is very well saturated with carbon dioxide and has a pleasant, noble hops bitter, as well as a unique malt-hops taste.

Bottle, 500ml. Pours decent translucent copper, with short-living head. Fairly rich on the nose, of malt and hops, and fairly sweet on the palate, with well blended alcohol and balanced with notes of caramel and toffee. Low carbonation, but not suffereing for it. A decent bottle.

Warka Strong had a unique and interesting taste. Its sweet flavor was not really what i look for in beers but it was pretty good. overall i purchased a 500ml for $1.50 which is a fair price.

clear amber, minor white head that doesn’t linger, some lacing. nose of sweet malt, corn syrup. sweet grain/corn in the flavor with floral malts and a slight hoppiness. medium bodied, dry, bitter finish. a tad too sweet in flavor, but still an enjoyable brew. perhaps i am just too forgiving of eastern european beers, probably based on my years working for the CIA behind the iron curtain. but i may have said too much already....you can get single bottles featuring the portrait of kazimierz pulaski @ "binny’s beverage depot" in orland park.

Bottle from La Mesa Market. Medium brownish/amber upon pouring. Roasted malty aroma, with a little bit of lager type sweetness. Sweet and bready up front. Some roastiness. Taste reminds me of a bock, rather than a ESL. Enjoyable.

bouteille de 500ml, passablement foncée, dorée foncée, peu de mousse, nez de malt, classique de la strong lager, bouche sucrée maltée, agréable.

Deep gold in colour, the head was loose and reluctant. smells of caramel, brown leaves (how can you taste leaves?) and sultanas. Has a sweet/sticky mouthfeel, as others seem to mention a lot.

Golden pour with transient frothy head. Malt and grain give way to honey, water and alcohol. Very thin and hollow.

12 oz. This years batch doesn’t have "Strong" on the label, but it’s 7.0% so it appears to be the same beer. Amber color, thin white head. It’s got a rough and smooth taste to it, which I know is contradictory, but still that’s what it feels like. The flavor isn’t bad, smooth and drinkable, but it leaves kinda a rough edge to it after the fact. Don’t know if I’d rate it this low, but I also probably won’t go back here.
