I'm no beer expert, but I do have "expectations" for the approximate taste of a decent beer or ale. The homebrewers, of course, are very proud of their concoctions. How could they be otherwise? Heinekin is a fine bottled beer, and for many people, tastes exactly like they want their beer to taste, even if they've just discovered it. I like the taste of some Japanese beers, too, but my favorites seem to come from Mexico. The beer I like best from there is Montejo, a brand I've never seen in the markets. It's just an ordinary beer brewed in Yucatan, Mexico, and in fact is the beer the ordinary locals drink. |

I'm no beer expert, but I do have "expectations" for the approximate taste of a decent beer or ale. Then the homebrewer didn't know what he was doing, or he simply had more refined taste than you. You are just bigoted. Most microbreweries have contests for homebrewers. Why? Because homebrewers use techniques that have been used for a few thousand years, and are knowledgeable about contents. The winning brew is usually then picked up and made by the microbrewery. The homebrewers, of course, are very proud of their concoctions. How could they be otherwise?

Now I understand. Almost all Mexican beer is watered down swill. |

Heineken is originally of German roots and thought by many to be brewed in Holland now. In reality, it's mass produced throughout the world in over 40 countries. It's basically a European Budweiser.

The bottle beside me, and every other I have drank in the US, since 1967, has said imported from Holland. The lables used to say brewed and bottled in Rotterdam. Probable right down the street from the container ship docks. In Amsterdam they have one horse drawn wagon, in addition to the trucks. The current US stuff is from Amsterdam. I can testify that the stuff in the US, on the ship, and in Amsterdam all tasted the same. Casady |

Casady It really doesn't matter where it is brewed, Heineken is Europe's equivalent of Budweiser. If you enjoy a very light lager, but with a little more hops than Bud, you might like Heineken. On the Beer Advocate it has a mediocre rating. When I drink a beer, I want it to be a very flavorful beer with a rich full flavor. Here is one of the reviewers on the Beer Advocate that sums up my feeling about Heineken. "The smell was thin - some sulfur-like odor. The taste was bland - a mixture of sulfur and vegetable oil mixed with a touch of hops. It ends with a salty note. It's fairly drinkable, but boring. The sulfur tends to stick around, but something about it makes it crisp and it can be refreshing. But, it's not a good beer by any means - and overpriced. I know that it is popular - but wonder why. (Marketing I suppose.)" -- Reginald P. Smithers III, Esq. This Newsgroup post is a natural product.
