News / The Internet totally uncontrolled in Poland? [19]

Are they going to actually restrict the content that you can access or just restrict what can be posted from IP addresses in Poland (or hosted on servers in Poland)?

There's a big difference.

Food / Polish Beer Recipes [39]

Does anybody know any Polish beer recipes? I brew my own beer and I would like to try a Polish recipe for brewing beer.

I'll also accept liquor recipes as well... ;)

Haha... maybe I wasn't clear. I have not been able to find any Polish beer recipes on Google. I can't even find them in Polish because I do not know what Polish words to search for. All that I know is that piwo is beer.

Sorry. I just figured maybe somebody on here brewed their own beer and might want to share some recipes.

Thanks for that info.

Out of curiosity, what extracts did you use for that recipe on there? Did it really turn out pretty good?

I'll look into the Czech pale lagers.

Convex - I'll do that... thanks! :)

lowfunk99 - I didn't know that. Looks like I have some books to buy!

Haha.

Convex nailed it. It's very satisfying to create your own beer exactly to your liking. I've brewed quite a variety of beers by now. Every single one of them is undeniably better than most of the crap sold in the stores. Fresh (but aged) homebrew is absolutely delicious.

I'm just looking for new recipes. :)

Do you know the laws for shipping alcoholic beverages from the US to Poland (and back)? I'm not sure about how to go about that. I don't even know how homebrew would hold up being shipped.

If we could pull that off, I'd definitely be up for trading some.

That would be great! I'll have to brew one of my better recipes now.

Looks like a trip to the brew store is in order... :)

Looks like it's not legal.

The best way to go about it would be to use DB Schenker to ship internationally. However, I think we'd still have to word our descriptions carefully. DB Schenker will clear customs though. UPS and FedEx might run into problems with customs.

SCHENKER SP.ZO.O. is the name of the company in Poland. There's a DB Schenker office near me. I'll see if I can find out about rates.

FYI- This company is how people ship beer internationally for homebrew competitions.

That also sounds good. I'll have to try it.

By the way, I went to the store last night only to find out that they don't sell rectified spirits (spirytus) in my state. Looks like I'll have to go to a different state to get some.

It's about 4 hours to the border by the falls for me. Much closer to just go to Maryland (1.5 hours).
