Gdansk in Yer Pants: A Review of Okocim Porter from Browar Okocim S.A. (Carlsberg)
Browar Okocim S.A. (Carlsberg)
Poland
My high school/college girlfriend had a Polish father who was quite eccentric (this is coming from a Pollack with some very oddball relatives) and plastered a Solidarność sticker on his car bumper. That's not the eccentric part just the Polish part. So, anyway, he would blare bagpipe music on Sunday mornings that filled the neighborhood and I believe that the cops were involved at some point. This is all before he went crazy. After he lost it he frequented punk concerts in downtown Detroit and kept a mighty stash of porno mags under the mattress of his marital bed. Needless to stay he got kicked to the curb.
It's odd because even though I didn't really voice it at the time I thought that the man was quite normal and those who objected to his behavior as the strange ones. But what do I know about life? Not much. About beer: not much more.
This one comes off as a standard fare macro if you only look at the bottle itself. Once you uncork this darkie though it becomes a craft delicacy. A top notch porter with all the heartwarming alcohol needed to render a teenage rememberance blog worthy. You may not think so but I believe that you are and will always be the crazy one of us two.
