This Weekend With Heineken Beer
This is my entry for the popular #beersaturday by @detlev. This very week 382 I decided to do with popular Heineken Original Premium Beer. When I talk about this beer with my friends the all will ask me if it is their popularity that made me love it or what. My response is always the same thing at all time. A well brewed beer is not for everyone and I am among the few that love quality. Popularity does not make a product quality neither does the age. A quality and well brewed beer will always be my choice and pick at all times.
On Saturdays is the only free day that I have of the seven days in a week. Mondays to Fridays I work, Saturdays I rest, Sundays I take my family out, making sure the entire day we spend together with minimum distractions from anything phone or other media. My wife knowing this helps in making a pick for my #beersaturday. I tend not to do more that what she gets me. If she gets one bottle, that is it for the day and if two, I do not exceed that, there is a lot of respect in drinking responsibly.
The fact that it is a Dutch origin and another fact that it has 5% ABV and brewing with a whole lot of originality is one reason I so much love this beer. While some love to eat while consuming their beer, I love to take my beer before meal. The energy from the beer I use wisely before taking any food and afterwards take a nap. After I wake I just relax with the current football match being played.
Every week I tend to ensure I do not exceed my limit. It is one thing to be able to take alcohol, it is another thing to respect oneself by not exceeding limits either it is being bought or being paid for
Cheers! 🍻 Heineken is a global brand. I would be interested to try your Heineken if it's the same as here because, as a large corporation, they adapt to local tastes.
It's not, Heineken (and other brands) license production in Nigeria, see.
That's what I'm talking. It probably is different.
Honestly, even if it was the same brew (Heineken is nothing special, just a mediocre international factory-brewed beer with good marketing a loads of money for it), it would likely taste like piss. Beer is extremely vulnerable and goes wrong when treated incorrectly. In a country with power outages, they simply cannot store it properly. Not mentioning the transport.
All this is true. Heineken has bought up most of the biggest breweries in Slovenia and Croatia, so now you don't even know exactly where they are brewed. Btw: Krušovice and Desperados are also brewed in Slovenia and Croatia.
Yep, killing the local beer production :)
We just need to spread the beer knowledge so that people wouldn't fall for the marketing and opt for quality over fame ;)
