Probably the first ’world’ beverage.You can get it in all but the worst Western establishments. I order it over Bud.

Had the version contract-brewed by Cerveceria Costa Rica multiple times. More bitter than other Costa Rican brews (except Bavaria Gold) and not as pleasant as Bavaria Gold. Skunky smell but I’d rather have this than Bud. I’m fortunate most parties around this area (central PA) serve Yuengling.

This is a very good import, but from what i hear it tastes vastly better in germany. A solid and respectable beer.

My experience with Heineken has varied and it’s true the European stuff is slightly better. I’ve found this beer to age horribly and is easily damaged by heat. So F*** this shi*! PABST BLUE RIBBON!!!
