Its a fact Budweiser sucks. Im English and when we see it in a pub in UK we laugh, and we are the people that makes Carling!!!!! (Another pure filth) I dont see Sledz saying that everything in Poland is the best however when he is talking about their beer being better than that filth Budwieser he is correct. My dog could pi-ss a stronger tipple than that. As to the importance of Polish people fu-ck u

The fact that they imigrate to other countries mostly due to the position of thier economy has nothing to do with how much better their beer is to that American filth.

Why the hell shouldnt they immigrate to other countries? English people have been doing it for ages, France, Spain and now Poland. The south of spain has been turned into a little version of England. If we will do it to countries why shouldnt they come to us. Aslo if you are American, you just remember whose language you speak, then remember the importance of yourself.

Sorry to any nice Americans on this Forum I have nothing against you or your country just this fool is, well a fool

No one is denying that :)

American filth

Now now...let's not talk about anything you don't know enough about.

To your information...we speak American-English and this is not your language...

Actually, it was introduced to us by british colonization.

Now now...let's not talk about anything you don't know enough about

that was refering to Budwieser.

yes you're fool ... making statements like you do...this can only be a fool...Don't speak for English people because I've met many of them and you're nothing like them...you're just an frustrated little "boy" trying to get a woman (or probably even a guy) in a different country since you were obviously constantly rejected in England...

FFS stop coming on here with different names and slagging Polish people off. That was your idea earlier. The girl dumped you we already found this out so just get over it:)


There post was removed for the reasons you mention, breaking forum rules

I think water is very important for beer quality - bad water= bad beer.
So many small breweries in the Uk used to make decent beer (beer - not lager!) but the big breweries are slowly buying them all out.

There is one Polish beer I love. Tatra - they make a lovely dark version as well
Few decent scandinavian beers - clean water you see.
Tried a lovely dark Estonian beer called Saku Tume - mmmmm
Bit off topic sorry, but it's related to clean water and alcohol. Most popular vodka in Poland seems to be Finlandia (forget absolut - that was designed by an ad agency)

Poor Budweiser guy I can also attest Bud sucks and I am an American but Bud is a HUGE company so if they want to try to sell it in Polska good luck I have seen it and the biggest joke is they wanted 4pln for a can of Bud at my local Zabka I keeled over laughing, They also sell the other swill here Miller. I live in constant fear that Bud or Miller will buy a Polish beer and ruin it. But just so you know America does make some fine Piwo I like Sierra Nevada Porter. The trick is when in America stay away from all the really popular beers and anything with the Annheiser-Bush label its the largest brewery and by far the worst. The problem is most American dolts don't try anything else so they are ignorant and happy swigging this oat flavored water. Even Polish "zul" beer is better than Bud. AND some Mexican beer is excellent on a hot day with some lime onthe beach which has to be in Mexico as you can't drink on the beach legally in many states

Hm American beer in Poland? In my opinion thats not rally good idea... Taste of polsih beer is really special and i would always preffer to buy Krolewskie, Zywiec, Lech, than some Bud ( wich tastes like sh#@). Of course it is alwys good to have more beers to choose, but i really do not thnik that it would be good way of making money for u;D

We're lucky enoug to get many Belgian beer in the US. I'm not sure about all Belgian brews, but I do like their Trappist ales especially their Rochefort 10 :) Superb Ale!

Duvel is good except for the strong Alk taste. Hoegaarden is also good if you like a typical german HefeWeizen (wheat).

But just so you know America does make some fine Piwo I like Sierra Nevada Porter.

Thank you Kruk. Nice to know someone at least went out of their way to taste some of our microbrews :) We have a many great microbrews in Vermont. There are so many. If some of you would like to try some:

squidoo.com/americanmicrobrew

....funny...notice the #3 ;)

Quoting: daffy
FISZ, what american beers CAN you recommend?
Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA (9%)- 120Min IPA (21%) All the way!!

Eye of the Hawk is also really good. The problem with micro-brews is unless you are close to where they are made they are damned expensive. And Belgian beers are really good especially from those trappist(?) monks! I am drinking Tyskie right now so that must explain my lack of spelling prowess. Generally I love going to local brew pubs(in the states) and sampling their stuff but I can never remember which were the best maybe I have a problem.

In addition I think some American beers(Bud-Miller) would be popular for like a week because of the novelty but after people drank them they would use them to kill slimak(snails/slugs)

It's not a problem because most of them have good qualities. The good thing is you DO remember the ones you don't like :)

I've never tried Eye of the hawk. I'll have to look out for it.

"In addition I think some American beers(Bud-Miller) would be popular for like a week because of the novelty but after people drank them they would use them to kill slimak(snails/slugs)"

That's funny and so true. LOL

I found this discussion on Google, and thought that I would relay my thoughts. I started brewing beer about fifteen years ago. In fact, when I started, I could not stand the taste of beer, but was intrigued that this was something that could be made at home. I would only drink beer at social occasions, and was lmited to Bud/Miller/Coors. It was no wonder why I couldn't drink the stuff easily. So, I brewed my first beer by making a German lager. I'm still pretty proud of myself, as others seemed to like it, though it was still not to my personal liking. High fermentation temps do not make a lager. Next, I brewed a brown ale and it was much better, to my liking.

I started my beer 'research' with Guiness and was astounded. This was something different. It was a slow nitrogen poured treat. Dry, roasted and very smooth. I was hooked. There are more styles out there beside the [i]american macrobreweries[i]. I dabbled into the Irish, English, Belgian and German/Bohemian styles. I was now hooked on beer. To this day I do not even call today's Bud/Miller/Coors, beer.

The problem with Bud/Miller/Coors is their cost saving philosophy. I don't consider any brewery that uses corn or rice in there product beers. Corn & rice will give a lighter flavor, but taste bad and give a major headache in the morning. I stay away from them as well as Red Stripe and Corona. If these are the only american style's one experiences , well it is no wonder why they dislike them. True beer's follow the Reinheitsgebot law of 1516, where only water, barley and hops are used to make beer. Later, when Louis Pasteur discovered yeast, was it added. Some styles can get away with other adjunts, such as the trappist styles, but you wouldn't want to drink a lot of them. Major headache.

To get to my point, american beer is not limited to the mentioned beers. There are thousands of microbreweris in the world. To limit a countries beer by a few macrobreweries, that try to make as much money they can by limiting the good ingredients is sad. Try beers from Great Divide, Stone, Dogfish Head, North Coast, Terrapin, Avery, Weyerbacher. There are hundreds of these breweries in the US. There are many even smaller pubs in our towns. They brew Stouts, IPA's, Porters, Pilsners, doppelbocks, doubles, triples, Barley wines and many others. I enjoy trying all beers and while some are better than others and some pair well with different foods, one will never know till they try.

Good beer is made only with good ingredients. This means properly treated water, fresh hops, good quality barley suited to the style. Carefully monitored mash temps and fermentation temps make a big difference in taste, alcohol, and body. Sanitation, can never be ignored. And the beer should be served in the proper glass at the proper temperature for the style. Great beer is not hard to make, but there are no shortcuts.

15 years from the time I started brewing, I'm now working on starting my own small brewery. I'm not out to make a big business, but just a local pub, right here in Charlotte, NC. I only use water, barley, hops and yeast and won't limit or change ingredients, for the sake of turning a profit.

I'm just glad that our world has all these great beers, and raise my glass to it's history.

You want to make a bussiness in Poland ? Someone is already doing this. Anheuser Busch Europe (owner of BUD) is recruiting "Country Manager Poland". So company is now entering Poland. Will see what result , it's a really big competition n the market. SAB has a.37% Heineken Group - a. 33% and Carlsbergo Group 14%, and there are many of local breweries.
