Interesting Facts
Heineken uses unique A-Yeast, developed by Dr. H. Elion (a student of Louis Pasteur) in 1886, which is key to its distinctive flavour.
The beer is fermented in horizontal tanks, which Heineken claims creates the ideal pressure for the A-Yeast to work optimally.
Heineken is available in over 190 countries worldwide.
The red star on the logo is an old brewer's symbol, its points traditionally representing the ingredients (water, barley, hops, yeast) and the "magic" of brewing.
