hopIQ found 10 beers with the same dry and crisp character as Heineken Original. Heineken Original is the brewery's flagship pale lager, brewed from malted barley, water and hop extract and fermented with the house A-yeast. It pours clear gold under a white head. The yeast gives a light fruity note with a hint of banana, set over a soft, grainy malt base with a touch of bread crust. Hop extract keeps the bitterness mild and evenly blended rather than sharp, and the beer finishes dry, crisp and short, with little sweetness left on the tongue. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Amstel Bier — 95%. Same dryness and crispness, with a smooth-drinking edge Heineken International keeps quiet.
