What's Heineken ?

"It's the finest beer in the world."

Surely that belongs in the goofs section ? mjeyds.gif

Re: What's Heineken ?

To some it still is.Plus you have to remember this is a period piece. The beer selection was nothing like now. Hell in the 80's in high school, Lowenbrau and Heineken were top shelf beers..

Re: What's Heineken ?

If my memory serves me correctly, by the 80's Lowenbrau in this country was being brewed by Miller's and was absolute swill. Also I was in Amsterdam in the 70's before Amstel was a lite beer and personally found it to be superior to Heineken.


Only two things are actually knowable:
It is now and you are here. All else is merely a belief.

Re: What's Heineken ?

So true. Back then Lowenbrau was still a German made beer. Heinie was widely considered the best. Oh, how times have changes and brands diluted.

In the USA, it might had been unknown in the early 70s.

Re: What's Heineken ?

He actually said the name wrong in the movie Buddusky refer to it as "a bottle of Heinekens" when Meadows asked what's Heinekens Buddusky replied its the finest beer in the world president Kennedy used to drink it.funny how earlier in the movie when Meadows has his first beer a Schlitz Buddusky declared that to the best beer in the world they then got a room and drank more Schlitz and Pabst

Re: What's Heineken ?

In the mid 1970's when I first drank a bottle of Heinekin, Heinekin was considered one of the best beers available as in "ritziest beer".

Re: What's Heineken ?

in europe its called horse *beep*

Re: What's Heineken ?



Heineken is a great beer when you get it from the tap in Amsterdam but stateside it's very skunky. Times change, Schlitz used to be the beer to drink back in the 50's and 60's. Now there's so many forget it!

Re: What's Heineken ?

@Daniel- Buddusky declares its the best drink in the world, not the best beer. Which I feel is true!
I remember growing up in the 70's and Stroh's used to be one of the top beers.

Re: What's Heineken ?

Very true, a top shelf beer then.

Re: What's Heineken ?

Ah, Philadelphia and its beers when this film was made: Ortleibs (sp?)and Schmidt's!
