Please note: considering the huge and neverending development of the world of beer in many countries, my comments below may be quite out-of-date.
Vodka has always been a serious rival to beer in this country but the consumption increased during the last decades, going from 40 to 75 liters and then to 100 which places Poland in the world's top 5 in per-capita.
The principal breweries are now owned by western companies, like Okocim (Carlsberg), Zywiec (Heineken) and Kompania Piwowarska (SABMiller).
Although the basic beer style is pilsner, you were always likely to find interesting baltic porters and nowadays of course, some craft styles.
Breweries: 300 / Consumption per capita: 100 litres / % imported: 2.4% / % exported: 9%.
