TATRA ~ GRUPA ŻYWIEC
Tatra is a Euro Pale Lager made by Grupa Żywiec, a subsidiary of Heineken. Sampled from a tin, the beer poured clear golden amber with a thin head. The head left quickly leaving patches of lace. Nose is fairly mild with bready grains, light sweet malts, hay, and a tiny hint of lemon and very mild grassy hops. Flavour follows as expected: it tastes like a light Euro Lager. Sweet grains, pale malts, slight earthiness with a hint of hops. The finish is quick and has a strange sweetness about it. The alcohol is barely noticeable. The mouthfeel was fairly light and the carbonation was lively. Overall, I would prefer this to an American Macro; it had a little more backbone. The beer is drinkable, but it is very innocuous, and average.
5.5% from Żywiec, Śląskie Poland
