Beer 198 - Heineken Light

Brewed in Holland by Heineken using "horizontal fermentation to give it a uniquely refreshing taste ... more style and substance ... and only 99 calories" Low calories, means low alcohol only 3.2% alc/vol.  The beer is only available in the US, (introduced in 2005) so it is probably bottled over here.  The beer was bought and drunk at Dave and Busters on Old Katy Road, Houston while we bowled (ten pin bowling) with friends of Patricia's from work. Though both our scores were very bad we had a fun night.

I am not really a fan of light beers, all the ones I've tasted so far have been light in taste - little more than drinking flavored water.  I guess this was a nice beverage to wash down the hamburger sliders and french fries, but this is not a beer I would drink to satisfy a craving for taste.  Light in body, light in flavor and light in taste, acceptable as substitute for water, but that is about all.
