Ok I have to apologise for another sub standard Euro Lager! Again this one was a gift from our house guests and it would be rude of me not to indulge! This can came in a wifebeating 500mL!
Heineken is a mass produced Dutch euro-lager mega swill that comes in a green can. Every person who has been exposed to any form of advertising will know the brand and along with Fosters and Budweiser is probably the world’s most famous beer brand.
The brewery describes their lager as:
100% Barley malt, choice hops and pure water give this brew unsurpassed clarity.
Which is more than a little surprising?
Here are what some other punters have to say!
This beer reminds of the crowd at a sporting event... "Over rated, over rated..." OK beer at best, not so OK when you consider the price. Terrible aftertaste, reminiscent of Coors Light
And
Everyone knows this one, and in the bottles it tastes too apple-ish and light - not to mention its easy to look like a DB with it in front of you. However, I had it on tap for the first time due to a tasty price and I was pleasantly surprised. Still pretty watery, but highly drinkable.
And
From the bottle. Really nasty beer. Clear urine color. No real aroma. Tastes very bitter but yet with no real flavor to back it up. Not much to say about it, its just bad. I’d rather drink Michelob Ultra to be honest....
I could continue but I have already made my point!

Another repeat so I will not go into too much detail. This was smashed down at the Bush Bar and grill. After being accosted at the doorway by the Uber Camp Austin powers type we were seated at the bar to enjoy a drink. With the choice of Amstel (which I had last time) or Heineken I chose the later. You can read about that experience here. At least I got a pint glass this time!
