Tychy

Tychy (uitspraak: [ˈtɨxɨ]?, ong. tichi) (Duits: Tichau) is een stad in het Poolse woiwodschap Silezië. Het is een stadsdistrict en gelegen in het zuidelijke deel van het land. De oppervlakte bedraagt 81,62 km², het inwonertal 131.547 (2005).... Archeologische vondsten op het kerkhof in het stadsdeel Cielmice duiden er op dat al sinds het paleolithicum het gebied al bewoond is. In het jaar 874 werd de omgeving deel van het Groot Moravische Rijk, na de ondergang in het jaar 985 kwam het gebied de Poolse hertog Mieszko I. Hierdoor werd het gebied vanaf 1025 onderdeel van het koninkrijk Polen. (https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tychy)

The moniker Tychy is derived from the Polish word cichy, meaning "quiet" or "still".[6] Although appropriate for most of Tychy's history, the name is now somewhat ironic considering the growth of the city from 1950 onwards. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tychy)

Tychy (Polish pronunciation: [ˈtɨxɨ] ⓘ; German: Tichau; Silesian: Tychy) is a city in Silesia in southern Poland, approximately 20 kilometres (12 mi) south of Katowice. Situated on the southern edge of the Upper Silesian industrial district, the city borders Katowice to the north, Mikołów to the west, Bieruń to the east and Kobiór to the south. The Gostynia river, a tributary of the Vistula, flows through Tychy. .... Since 1999, Tychy has been located within the Silesian Voivodeship, a province consisting of 71 regional towns and cities. Tychy is also one of the founding cities of the Metropolitan Association of Upper Silesia, a pan-Silesian economic and political union formed with the eventual aim of bringing the most populous Silesian areas under a single administrative body. Tychy is well known for its brewing industry and the Tyskie brand of beer, which dates back to the 17th century.[3] Since 1950, Tychy has grown rapidly, mainly as a result of post-war socialist planning policies enacted to disperse the population of industrial Upper Silesia.[4][5] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tychy)

Originally established as a small agricultural settlement on the medieval trade route between Oświęcim and Mikołów, Tychy was first documented in 1467.[7] In 1629 the first trace of serious economic activity was recorded in the shape of the Książęcy Brewery, which is now one of the largest breweries in Poland.[8] From 1526 onwards the area on which Tychy is built was part of the Austrian Habsburg monarchy. Then in 1742 Prussia annexed the land after winning the First Silesian War against the Austrian Hasburg monarchy. In 1871 the territory became part of the German Empire until in 1918, for a short period between 1918 and 1921 Tychy was just inside the border of the newly formed Weimar Republic and still a part of the German Province of Silesia. On 16–17 August 1919 the Battle of Paprocany [pl] (present-day district of Tychy) was fought as one of the first battles of the Silesian Uprisings (1919–1921). After the uprisings Tychy was reintegrated with the re-established Polish state. Additionally, due to the Polish majority in 1921 in Tychy and the few Germans, 84% of the inhabitants voted for joining Poland during the plebiscite.[9] Shortly after its cession to Poland, Tychy began to develop into a small urban settlement, acquiring a hospital, a fire station, a post office, a school, a swimming pool, a bowling hall and a number of shops and restaurants. In 1922 it was visited by leader of interwar Poland, Józef Piłsudski.[10] Its population also grew between World War I and World War II, reaching a population of 11,000 at its highest point during this time.[7] ... Along with the rest of industrial Upper Silesia Tychy was occupied by Nazi Germany forces after the invasion of Poland and annexed into the Third Reich,[11] while many of its inhabitants who were not expelled or exterminated were forced to change their nationality to German in order to comply with the racist policies of Nazi Germany.[12] Mass arrests and executions of Polish activists and former Polish insurgents of 1919–1921 were carried out in the first days of the occupation in September 1939.[1]... Tychy received minimal damage during the invasion because most of the nearby fighting took place in the Mikołów-Wyry area.[7] In the final stages of the war, in 1945, a German-conducted death march of thousands of prisoners of the Auschwitz concentration camp and its subcamps passed through the city towards Gliwice.[19] Tychy was liberated on January 28, 1945.[10] ... The "New City" was designated by the Polish government in 1950 and deliberately located near to Katowice with the intention that it would not be a self-sustaining city. It was granted town rights in 1951.[10] Tychy is the largest of the so-called "new towns" in Poland and was built from 1950 to 1985, to allow for urban expansion in the southeast of the Upper Silesian industrial region. ...  In the administrative reforms which came into effect in 1999, Tychy was made a city with the status of a powiat (city county). Between 1999 and 2002, it was also the administrative seat of (but not part of) an entity called Tychy County (powiat tyski), which is now known as the Bieruń-Lędziny County.

Princely Brewery Tychy (Polish Tyskie Browary Książęce) or Tychy Brewery in the town of Tychy is one of the largest breweries in Poland. It is operated by the Kompania Piwowarska company. It traces its history to the 17th century. The brand of beer produced by the brewery is Tyskie. Today, the premises host a beer museum "Tyskie Brewing Museum" (Polish Tyskie Browarium). During a 2009 vote the brewery complex was voted, as one of the "Seven Architectural Wonders of the Silesian Voivodeship."[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tychy_Brewery)

The Tyskie Brewing Museum or Tyskie Browarium is a museum in Tychy in Silesia, Poland. It was established in 2004. The museum is an Anchor point on the European Route of Industrial Heritage. [1] It is an object of cultural heritage in Silesia (259/10), and a Polish national monument (641660).  During a 2009 vote the brewery complex was voted as one of the "Seven Architectural Wonders of the Silesian Voivodeship."[2] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyskie_Brewing_Museum)

Silesian Voivodeship (Polish: województwo śląskie [vɔjɛˈvut͡stfɔ ˈɕlɔ̃skʲɛ] ⓘ) is a voivodeship, or province, in southern Poland centered on the historic region known as Upper Silesia (Górny Śląsk), with Katowice serving as its capital. Despite the Silesian Voivodeship's name, most of the historic Silesia region lies outside the present Silesian Voivodeship – divided among Lubusz, Lower Silesian, and Opole Voivodeships. The eastern half of Silesian Voivodeship (and, notably, Częstochowa in the north) was historically part of Lesser Poland. The Voivodeship was created on 1 January 1999 out of the former Katowice, Częstochowa and Bielsko-Biała Voivodeships, pursuant to the Polish local government reforms adopted in 1998. It is the most densely populated voivodeship in Poland. Within the area of 12,300 square kilometres, there are almost 5 million inhabitants.[4] It is also the largest urbanised area in Central and Eastern Europe.[5] ... Silesian Voivodeship has the highest population density in the country (379 people per square kilometre, compared to the national average of 124). The region's considerable industrialisation gives it the lowest unemployment rate nationally (6.2%). The Silesian region is the most industrialized and the most urbanized region in Poland: 78% of its population live in towns and cities. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silesian_Voivodeship)

Tyskie beer has been on sale since 1629. The brewery, then called "Fürstliche Brauerei in Tichau", produced three kinds of beer: mailings, yeast and tableware. Only the high quality beer was intended for sale, and the other two were a beer allowance drunk mainly by brewers and their families. In the early 19th century, the brewery produced only two beverages: beer and Bavarian malt, both top-fermenting. Bavarian malt with a classical composition, saturated color was brown, sweet, calorie and low-hopped. The standard was the dark weak niskoekstraktowe, that was only for immediate consumption. Prince Jan Henryk XI rebuilt the brewery 1861, he introduced a steam engine. Production rose to 100.000 hectoliters a year, making the brewery one of the largest beer producers in Europe. After the expansion and the introduction of bottom-fermenting, they started to produce beer in March, called Tyskie lager, a relatively short Bavarian beer. The first beers were light and were sold under the Książęce brand. The brewery was electrified in 1891 and was linked to the railway network in 1894. In the interwar period, popular brands from Tyskie were the Książęce Tyskie Pilsen, the Książęce Tyskie Export, the Książęce Tyskie full beer, and Tyskie Porter. Today the Tyskie Górny Śląsk brewery is owned by Kompania Piwowarska, itself a subsidiary of SABMiller established in Poland in 1999 as a result of the merger of two SABMiller owned Polish breweries, this one and the Lech Brewery Wielkopolski in Poznań.[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyskie_Brewing_Museum)

Tyskie (Polish: [ˈtɨskʲɛ]) is a Polish brand of beer. Its name comes from the brewery located in the Upper Silesian town of Tychy. It is brewed by the Tychy Princely Brewery (Polish Tyskie Browary Książęce), part of the Kompania Piwowarska brewery group, which was acquired by Asahi Group Holdings in 2017.[1] ... The main brands are Tyskie Gronie (pale lager). ... The brewery is one of the oldest in Europe. Beer has been produced in Tychy continuously for almost 400 years. From 1629, the brewery, then known in German as the "Fürstliche Brauerei Tichau" (Princely Brewery Tychy), was in the ownership of the German noble House of Promnitz [de]. From 1861, the brewery became known as the "Fürstliche Brauerei in Tichau" (Princely Brewery in Tychy) and came under the management of Hans von Hochberg [de] from the German princely (German Fürsten) House of Pless. Between 1918 and 1939, the brewery merged with neighbouring competing companies, but came under provisional administration of the Polish state intermittently from 1934 due to unpaid taxes. During World War II, the brewery was put under the management of the occupying authorities.[2]... In its beginnings, the brewery produced three kinds of beer: mailings, yeast and tableware.[clarification needed] Only the high quality beer was intended for sale, and the other two were a beer allowance drunk mainly by brewers and their families. In the early nineteenth century the brewery produced only two beverages: beer and Bavarian malt, both top-fermenting.

The people in the Upper Silesian town of Tychy have been making a beer called Tyskie that has been on the market since 1629. Today it is the most brewed beer in Poland. Visitors can find out how this came to be when they take a tour of the brewery where everything began. The foundation stone was laid by the Princes of Promnitz who resided in a nearby castle in Pszczyna in the 17th century. But brewing only really began on a larger scale with Prince Jan Henryk XI, who had the brewery rebuilt from the foundations in 1861, complete with a steam engine. The upshot was that production rose to 100.000 hectolitres a year, a fact which ensured the brewery a place in the ranks of the largest beer producers in Europe. Many of today’s brewery buildings date back to this time. In 1890 the brewery was electrified and three years later it was linked to the railway network. In 1920 the first garage was built to house the delivery lorries. The Second World War left the brewery almost ruined. But during the years that followed it slowly and continually began to recover. At the start of the 1990s the Tyskie brewery was rapidly modernised. Output rose to such an extent that it was necessary to construct a new bottling and dispatching plant that went into operation in June 1998. At the same time the brewery made clear how conscious it was of its long traditions, when it began work on restoring the historic factory buildings in 2000. One of the most particularly splendid buildings is the brew house and its original technical equipment, that was originally built between 1916 and 1922. Today the Tyskie Brewery belongs to the South African beer company, SAB Miller. The modern brewery museum opened its doors in 2004 and is the first museum of its kind in Poland. The exhibition invites visitors to play an active role, and brings back to life the history of the brewery in an illuminating manner. The works and the museum are situated on an industrial heritage trail linking a number of different technical monuments in the Silesian province.

Proost!

Ik heb een rondje gelopen rond de brouwerij:

De brouwerij is een leukere toeristische attractie dan een concentratiekamp. Wat een bizar contrast.

Er is hier vast genoeg bier opgeslagen, in al die opslagtanks:

Aan de overzijde van de straat is een opvallend begroeid huis:

De brouwerij zelf valt op door de opslagtanks:

Er is zelfs een bushalte bij de brouwerij!

Het is zelfs een monument?

Je herkent de oude bouwstijl in de gebouwen. Het is industrieel erfgoed dat goed past bij de rest van het plaatsje. 

Helaas was de rondleiding net vertrokken toen ik er was, en het museum was ook dicht.

Tyskie Gronie smaakte als een duidelijke pils. Maar dat is een omschrijving van niks. Hoe omschrijven anderen het?

Tyskie is a pattern Gronie taste lager in the world. Perfectly composed flavor profile provides a strong bitterness and malt fully, while satisfying the desire. Tyskie is made from carefully selected ingredients: malted barley, hops and water, using natural yeast in the beer fermentation. Perfectly given Tyskie Gronie attracts the attention of a thick white foam, clarity, and light golden color. Seasoned drinker senses in the notes of malt, delicate aroma of hops, and even touches of apple and banana. Gronie years gaining recognition in Poland and in the world. As the only Polish beer, twice won the "Beer Oscars" - Grand Prix at The British Brewing Industry Awards, the most prestigious beer competition in the world.

Strong bitterness in the hops, in the initial mouth feel and taste, as opposed to the aftertaste. Lots of breadiness...but highly fermented breadiness. Maybe a bit too musch malty breadiness. And the mouth feel is a little simple and primarily in the initial gulp. The aftertaste is far too powerful. First sip was best, but the more one has, the worst it seems to taste. Aroma is really amazing though, as is the look. Dec 11, 2023 (https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/1941/5280/)

The overall taste of Tyskie is a light, sweet, and slightly dry flavor with a moderate hop presence. The bitterness from the hops and the roasted malts give it a slight bitter aftertaste that is quite pleasant and not overpowering. (https://www.coalitionbrewing.com/what-does-tyskie-taste-like/)

Lech Browary Wielkopolski (Polish pronunciation: [ˈlɛɣ brɔˌvarɨ vjɛlkɔˈpɔlskʲi];[1] English: Lech Breweries of Greater Poland) is a big industrial brewery in Poznań, with a production capacity of 7.5 million hl. The plant is owned by Asahi Breweries subsidiary Kompania Piwowarska SA.... The modern brewing plant in Poznań was built between 1975 and 1980. In 1984, a malthouse was added. By 1992, along with other brewers, it was part of Wielkopolskie Zakłady Piwowarsko-Słodownicze SA, but after 1992, it became the company's main production facility, Lech Browary SA. In 1993, the ministry decided to privatize the ownership of the brewery. As a result of the tender a majority shareholder in the company was Euro Agro Centrum Poznań, owned by entrepreneur Jan Kulczyk.[2] In 1996, the brewery was taken over by South African Breweries, which in the same year, together with Jan Kulczyk, purchased the Tyskie Brewery. Three years later, the two breweries were combined to form Kompania Piwowarska. On 11 March 2007, at the newly opened section of the brewery, the world's biggest beer mug was erected and filled with Lech Pils beer, setting a Guinness world record for the largest number of people drinking from one mug, which included 4250 liters of beer. The establishment of the record was attended by 10,625 people.[3] On 31 July 2010, an advertisement containing words "Zimny Lech" (Cold Lech) was placed near Wawel. The controversy was that in Polish, "zimny Lech" means both cold Lech (beer), and can coincidentally mean cold (body of) Lech (Kaczyński), the former president of Poland, who was buried in Wawel on 18 April 2010.[4] On 2 August 2010, it was announced that the advertisement would be removed from near Wawel, as well as from other cities.[5] In 2017, Kompania Piwowarska was acquired by Asahi.

Ik heb Lech gedronken volgens mij, maar kan het niet anders omschrijven als een prima pils.

Żubr beer (Polish for Bison) is a Polish lager brewed by the Kompania Piwowarska SA. It was formerly known as Dojlidy, the name of the brewery in the Białystok district of Dojlidy, where it is produced. ... Żubr has been brewed since the Dojlidy Brewery opened in 1768. The Białystok based brewery was bought by the SABMiller subsidiary Kompania Piwowarska SA in 2003. The brew contains 12.1% (by weight) of extract content and 6.0% alcohol.[1] Currently it is brewed at three Kompania Piwowarska breweries: Białystok, Poznan and Tychy.... In April 2016, Kompania Piwowarska launched another special beer on the market. Prażubr is an unpasteurized lager with moderate bitterness and an alcohol content of 5% vol. It is available in returnable bottles and in 500 ml cans. His recipe was developed at the Dojlidy Białystok brewery. The product's name refers to the steppe bison – a mammal from the Pleistocene period, related to today's European bison. Advertising spots also emphasize the similarity between these species. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%BBubr_(beer))
