Bright golden color with 4 inches of pure, white head that settles to 2" then a thin film after 2 minutes. Smells like a lot of malt and hops and some heavy grains. Sweet, flavorful, light, golden yellow, translucent color. Great skunky hoppy flavor for a pilsener. Just amazing how much better it tastes out to the can than the bottle or a keg. One of the best choices. Tastes is really bitter and skunky. Body is medium light and has a good bite. Finish is sweet and bitter.

I used to be a big heineken drinker but no more. The main reason is I’m fairly sure that this beer is brewed with nyquil. I can never recall a time where I had a great night drinking heinekens, just getting tired after 2 and feeling generally bad. I suppose this isn’t a knock on the taste and what not but when you associate a beer with sleepy boring nights somethings up

Pale in color with a thin head with aromas on the grassy/herbal/earthy/skunky side. The palate was dry and bitter. Fine at a baseball game.

Not a bad Euro-macro, not much to it, a bit bitter, sweet and skunky (no taste difference whether from their mini-keg that’s mostly foam, or bottle, or can). Lots of fizz, nice golden color, a great beer for if you’re on a weekend bender, plus most of the time cheaper than some of the domestic beers. Cheers.

Very pale in color with minimal head. Barely noticeable aroma. Flavor of citrus (lemon in particular) and very sour. Fizzy on the palate. Pass

sewage water, way to popular. It has that factory taste to it.
