A: For appearance, it is your typical Euro-lager with a pale yellow/golden color, the head (If poured right) is foamy, very white and gives nice lacing, just a little too much carbonation to be seen.

S: The smell is faint, but definitely not offensive, you can smell some roasted malts, very little grassy/spiciness of the hops that are used. But thankfully it is not adjunct.

T: Bitter at the beginning, you can taste some citrus and grassy flavors in the beer and it finishes really smooth and refreshing. There hasn't been any notes of adjuncts like corn or rice in it, otherwise it would have a cooked vegetable aftertaste.

M: It is a little bit watery, but it is about light-medium and definitely carries more body than most mass produced garbage from AB. However, the mouthfeel is very pleasant, I can find it easy to gulp down pretty fast on a hot day after doing some yard work!

O: I really do like this beer as I have some good experience with a lot of beers (adjunct and non-adjunct) and I consider this beer pretty exceptional! For a mass market Lager, the brewing company has not resorted to adjuncts and it's definitely showing that they know how to please consumers. But more can be done with adding a little more Hop profile do give the beer some more taste as well as some more defined malts to give the beer a little more flavor.

I like Heineken's beers. They are so Euro and give me nostalgia. This one is good in the sense that it's drinkable and great for any occasion. I enjoy the lager but sometimes I prefer an ale. Luckily, tonight I'm all lager and love this one. I'm curious to see what quality their other brews are.

A: Pours a yellow light body, with a little white head.

S: A faint smell, almost inexistent.

T: Some bitterness and that is all, too much watery make this beer almost tasteless.

M: bitter and carbonation with a metallic aftertaste.

O: A little above average lager, better than most brazilian beers and large american lagers as budweiser, what means nothing in the end of the day.
