Tastes like: The archetypal lager. 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.

Go to beer, as a Brit this is where I go for my go to beer. Tastes great and it is so much better than any American beer on the shelf. Two thumbs up as always from this British woman. Love, love, love it. Good flavor, and doesn't need extras. Love it!

My favorite beer of all times! I am a little biased since I was born and raised in the Netherlands.. however this is a great beer for anyone. It’s not too light, not too strong and has a great taste! This is my favorite everyday beer and I would definitely recommend trying it!

Great on hand gift four tailgating events or barbecues great taste and affordable. Not too expensive. I wouldn’t change anything about this beer, gray product all around. About to grab Heineken Original Lager Beer Bottles another case now Heineken

So....all my beer reviews will be the same....NO! I've tried many, many beers in my life always hoping to fund that 1 beer that I could claim as my BEER, seriously, many beers, but I just can not stand beer:( I haven't even come close to finding one that I thought was ok? Maybe I'm just not a beer girl but I want to be!

This is a quintessential beer to have in your home. It’s light, not hoppy, and easily drinkable. A great European beer. Is it the best beer on the planet? No. But it’s consistent, easily available, and most people will drink it. We always have it on hand.

Honestly there is no beer like Heineken, I just love its taste so much. And if you're concerned about a major hangover the next morning, not with this beer, it's the champions beer for a reason and trust me it lives up to its rep. I recommend this beer every chance I get to my family and friends.

I don't know when Heineken Lager Beer 40 became my go to beer choice but it is one I rarely deviate from now. I like it ice cold so you avoid the skunky taste that can appear when it's not stored properly or served at wrong temperature. It's a light lager similiar to Becks Pilsner Beer or even Stella Artois Belgian Import Lager Beer. If you like one, you will more than likely enjoy all three. But Heineken is the best of the three. It pairs well with just about anything but I like it with spicy food bc it's refreshing and cools you down. It's great on a hot day in the hot sun but.. drink it fast because a warm Heineken isn't the most pleasant to drink.

I use as a chaser to my liquor instead of juice or soda because juice and soda could be a downfall in the morning being that they're sweet and liquor has alot of sugar. Very good bear not to harsh just right for an inexperienced or experienced drinker! Definitely budget friendly!

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.
