smoking gun

At first I thought the label had a typo - but then I saw it was a Polish beer, so I guess there isn't an "a" misplaced.
Honest mistake, right?
Imperial Red definitely shows the image we have in Europe even today, which we don't do much to change, to be honest.  Everybody remembers the Old West, and trigger-happy cowboys and sheriffs.  It seems like even in Central and Eastern Europe the romance of the era was strongly felt, even of it was used for a little parody.
Not implying a single thing here
The distinct odor of ale is noticeable when opening the bottle, orangey, lightly spicy.  It's a bubbly beer, although not particularly heady, with a warm cidery color.  It has a fine taste for a red ale, coming in bitter at first but with hints of sweetness that grow in your mouth.  It remains unobtrusive and perky, giving it the quality of a conversation beer, one you drink while earnestly discussing the merits of original language reading.  Or even imaginary language reading.
Ah, there it is
