The instantly recognizable green bottle, the red star, the smiling “e” as a welcoming greeting from a close friend, perfectly chilled, fresh, and of high quality Heineken since 1873.
The high quality of Heineken beer is achieved through the finest natural ingredients combined with traditional brewing craftsmanship and modern technology. At the heart of Heineken’s success are pure, natural ingredients: barley malt, water, hops, and a small but essential component, the so-called A-Yeast responsible for the rich, balanced taste and subtle fruity notes that have distinguished every Heineken since the 19th century.
Over the years, Heineken’s master brewers have continued to refine their craft. They discovered that fermenting Heineken beer in horizontal tanks, rather than the industry-standard vertical ones, creates the perfect pressure for the A-Yeast. This is what gives Heineken its distinctive, balanced, and full-bodied flavor. In addition, producing a beautiful golden-yellow beer takes 28 days, which is much longer than the average. But Heineken’s master brewers prefer patience over compromising on quality.
