Visiting the grandparents is always fun. It appears no matter how old I've gotten, they still have treats waiting for me. Over the weekend, Rachel and I visited her grandparents in Casper, Wyoming. One night her grandpa and I even got a glow on drinking Heineken beer. I was hesitant to drink it. I had Heineken once before and thought it was a little "skunky". With an open mind and a better appreciation for the subtleties of beer, I consumed glass after glass of the crisp light-bodied beer. The large head created by the Draughtkeg tested my patience as I waited for it to settle. The bready aroma is not complex or very enticing. The flavor is surprisingly pleasant. I picked up banana notes. The light malt comes through nicely. I am not sure of the specs of the beer.
