Heineken (65.1cl, 5%)

Heineken is a Dutch pale lager brewed by Heineken N.V. at 5% ABV. It is made with malted barley, hop extract and water, and fermented with the proprietary A-yeast strain isolated in 1886 by Dr. H. Elion. Fermentation takes place in horizontal tanks over seven days at below 11°C. This bottle is 651ml. The aroma is light grainy malt, delicate floral hop and faint banana-like fruitiness. The palate has mild malt sweetness, biscuity grain, subtle fruity and citrus notes and measured hop bitterness. The finish is clean and slightly dry, with hop bitterness lingering briefly.
