Pours a light gold, with an impressive head. Fairly light, with a Heineken taste. If you like Heineken, then this is the light beer for you.

Had at my friend’s house out of one of those mini kegs. Pours out piss yellow with a little white head. Aroma was of pretty much nothing, sweet corn was about it. Taste totally bland, thankfully not skunked like most Heineken usually is(due to the mini keg). Like thinned out corn syrup with hops that are very well hidden....just plain bad.

Not offensive in any way. Just light and lagerish. Tiny bite of hops, no malt anywhere. Good for lite banter with friends. good nite heine lite.
