its import and as far as i remember it aint brewed in holland , always gave me one hell of a hangover ....like 24 bottles of Miller stay well clear
The 4.3% Heineken is brewed in Cork, The 5% Heineken is brewed in the UK, somewhere near London if memory serves, and the 5% Heineken is better than the 4.3% cork stuff

You should try a blind tasting on the 2. Many people drink from the can, so get a metallic twang & smell. A guy in the beer forum swore blind he much preferred bottles over cans, but then had the guts to come back and admit there was very little difference when he and his mates did a proper blind tasting. i.e. pouring the same beer from bottles/cans into glasses, and much more importantly, not knowing which was which. In several cases the cans turned out better. Cans do not allow light in which can make beers taste terrible. This is even worse in clear bottles and is one of the reasons cited as to why people have to mask the horrible taste of corona by jamming a lime or lemon slice in the neck, it attempts to mask the funky off smell of light struck beer.Heineken bottle >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Heineken can.
The difference is astounding.
Kegged heineken here is brewed here, all the rest if from holland. The 4.3% stuff is probably identical to the 5% stuff but just diluted down more.The 4.3% Heineken is brewed in Cork, The 5% Heineken is brewed in the UK, somewhere near London if memory serves, and the 5% Heineken is better than the 4.3% cork stuff
I have never seen 5% heineken that was not brewed in holland, last ones I saw were in eurospar and meant for the scottish market (but brewed in holland). I think I did see 3.4% stuff brewed in the UK, so some 5% might be, but I never saw it.
Many beers are brewed to a higher % and then diluted down, including draught guinness.0 -
