Heineken Lager Beer
A- A big foamy dense head erupts in my glass. A lively beer with lots of visible carbonation. Clear and pale straw yellow with a slight chill haze. Almost orange hued at times. Not bad. S- Stinky hops aromas of grass, hay, roasted corn husks, vegetables and some slight graininess. Much more to this aroma than I would've expected. T- Again, more complexities in flavors than I expected. Starts off bittered and rather flat, than shoots to a zingy, twangy balance between hops and barley flavors. Finishes on some subdued European bitterness and cereal grain sweetness, which is very very slight. A rather oddly bittered aftertaste. This is an interesting tasting beer. Not right up my alley, but certainly drinkable. M- Thin bodied, of course. Smooth pulling, good amount of carbonation that compliments it well. D- Not bad. Interesting flavors that make me want to try it again and again, but not something I'd want a lot of. Too much cheap hops for me.
