Heineken has a distinct bitter taste that can deter some people. This is the beer that you see your dad or uncles drinking or something you see at a barbecue. The aroma is slightly sweet malt with a light mouth feel and a high carbonation feel. It's not as bitter as an IPA yet not too light. However, this beer is not huge in flavor. I personally don't like the taste and for it's price, you can definitely find something better. 

I’m not into beer but If I have to drink I go with Heineken. Heineken is a super-inoffensive lager with a stronger, bitterer taste than most internationally mass-produced lagers. It's perfectly carbonated, pours a straw yellow colour, with little or no head to speak of. It goes down smoothly when it's ice cold.

My husband always buy the brand of beer. He said the hangover is not as bad as Corona. I tried it and it’s true the hangover is not as bad. It does taste a little bit bitter than Corona’s beer. But as long as the hangover is not as bad we always buy this brand for parties.

If you like the taste of what a skunk smells like you'll dig Heineken beer. That's literally what it tastes like. Skunk. Nasty. Maybe it's an acquired taste thing but it's a no from me. I don't recommend wasting your money on this unless you know for sure you like it

Pours a clear not light, not dark yellow, nice bubbles, snowy white foam that recedes to a thin film over the beer. Smooth, lightweight start with a hint of more complex taste. Continues smoothly. Finishes smoothly. A competent European beer. And a fine choice when you’re in the mood for a pale lager.

Love Heineken, I used to drink it a lot when I was loving in Hungary. Very nice flavor , neither one of the ingredients is very predominant , not like in Corona . Little more expensive because it is imported , but i dont drink much, so worth it for me .

This is a satisfying beer to drink, my husband and I drink it when we are out often, it's stronger I think to other beers on the market and stronger in taste the flavor is satisfying on a hot summer night and I buy these often and would buy them again and again

I am very biased when it comes to beer. I can not drink it unless its drowned with at least a half of a large lemon. So instead of drinking it, i cook with it and drink it seldomly. It is a decent price for a tall can. I also let the beer go flat and use it as a natural hair rinse.

This was not what I was expecting. A lot of hpye for so little taste. Constantly seeing commercials or beer signs at bars promoting the product so I tried it and can't say I was impressed. Unless there is nothing else to order when I am dining, I don't buy it.

Heineken Original Lager Beer is definitely an acquired taste. It has has a strong skunky taste to it. I don’t care for it but I do keep it around the house because it’s one of my husbands favorite go to lagers. I’d say give it a try, some people like it as my husband does and some don’t like me.
