The polish word for
beer (pronounced 'pi-vo').
Polish
beer is excellent compared to most of the
piss-weak lager you get in England. It tastes nice and is generally a lot stronger, ranging from about 5% to 7.5% ABV.
Unlike most super-strength beers (Special
Brew, Kestrel etc.) a strong piwo does not taste like it's had meths added to it. In fact, many people have made the mistake of thinking that because it tastes good you can just drink it like you would drink normal lager... with hilarious consequences!
