Zywiec, Beer (Poland) 
Now owned by Heineken Brewery, Zywiec was founded in 1856. This lager beer is medium gold colour, and has a white head that disippates quite quickly. On the nose there is a real tang of citrus, softened by a yeasty note and good hoppy aromas that are very fresh. On the palate it is a beer with really good body and a creaminess of texture, but the flavours are sharp and focused, with lots of bitter hop oiliness and just a background warmth of toasty malt. Quite a generous, full style of strong lager, but crisp too. Very enjoyable. 5.8% ABV, 33cl, �1.39, Booth's, Peckhams, Surf4beer.  |  |
