A nice looking beer, with a nice head on it. This was my grandfathers favorite beer. Incredibly well marketed, to an incredibly foolish marketplace. It’s very skunky. It sucks

Heineken may be the Budweiser of Holland, but if so they are one up on us. Pleasant drinking.

UPDATED: JAN 19, 2006 TERRIBLE SKUNKED OUT BEER. It almost made me puke half-way through my first beer. Again, another shit beer that is overhyped and way overpriced(1/3/1/1/1/0.7).---ok, this was one of my first beers "rated". It is definitely time to re-rate this. I think the can version is much better than the bottle and that is what I am rating now. There is a mildly minty grassiness in the nose with a bit of spiced hops present as well. Transparent yellow-golden color with a pretty long-standing foamy white head. More minty spiciness present to start with some sweet maltiness present. A kiss of hoppiness to finish. Smooth, and a hell of a lot better than that Busch Light I just had.

I don’t really care for this beer, that said. I couldn’t believe how happy I was to find it in the liquor store at a blues festival in Arkansas that was serving ony Bud and Bud light.

If you don’t know much about this beer then get out from under that rock. Of all the mass produced beers this is one of the better ones but it’s still not great.

Not outstanding, but perfect for someone venturing outside the world of Budmilloors for a slightly more exotic, hoppy product. This is by no means an outstanding beer, but if it is indeed the Bud of Holland, it beats that standard by a country mile. If you like this, don’t stop your exploring here, in other words. Interesting thickish, Scottish aftertaste
