Zywiec ("Zschjiv-yetz") is the preferred beer of the nation of Poland, and a source of national pride. The bottle is decorated in blue, red and yellow over a vast blanketing white, a sort of charmingly ugly simplicity. The dancing man and woman of the emblem are dressed in the traditional dance-garb of Kracow.

Zywiec is widely imported. It is highly unlikely that you're sitting at a computer in a nation that does not furnish its inhabitants with access to Zywiec.

In both 1996 and 1997, Zywiec took home a gold medal from The World Beer Championships.
