Heineken Lager Beer is a pale lager with 5% alcohol by volume produced by Heineken N.V., a major Dutch brewing company established in 1864 in Amsterdam. The beer is made from water, malted barley, hops, and the unique Heineken A-yeast, which has been used by the brewery since the late 19th century.
Heineken is characterized for its bright, golden color, mild bitterness, and clean finish.
