Heineken

Heineken is a pale ale beer with 5% alchole by volume produced by the Dutch brewing company Heineken international.  Heineken is also an import beer.

This beer is malty and sweet at first, somewhat shunky.  A light amount of bitterness is present and this lingers through the aftertaste.

As with the taste a nice skunky smell is present, that I have always liked.  I think it is because of the green bottle that this smell is present.  Eventhough skunky it is very clean. 

If you can get over the skunky aspect it is not that bad.  These are somewhat muted and masked by notes of corn, grainy malts and grassy hops.

Overall Heineken is pretty refreshing though, not too heavy or overcarbonated so that was a good aspect. Obviously Heineken isn't really the best beer ever, but hey, it serves its purpose of letting you get drunk quickly. What it lacks in quality it makes up for in price sadly however.  

This beer is best servered cold and in the bottle.  Not the most complex beer, but a nice pale lager. Easy enough to drink with nothing off-putting as long as it's decently cold. I wouldn't turn it down if offered for free.

Thanks for reading and as always drink one for me.
