August 1, 1993<br> Gift<br> 330ml bottle <br> 5.0% ABV <br> $0.00<br> Another from the list of 'alright' tasting beers. Heineken is a beer that I expected more from. With it's place among the classic beers of the world secure, let's get down to the review. The colour is a straw gold colour that is representative of so many North American style lagers. The aroma is slightly hoppy and not too overpowering. The taste is pretty mild with nothing to really distinguish it from anything else. Not a bad beer, but it isn't a favourite of mine either.

The aroma is yeast, sweet candy sugar, brown sugar, and roasted malt. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is a miss for me as it falls kind of flat. The dark fruit and yeasty flavours are there that are typical of dark Belgian Strong ales, but they’re weak, almost in a watered down sense. Looks good, smells good, tastes weak.
