Heineken Origins
Gerar Heineken was 22 years old in 1873 when his wealthy mother helped him buy a struggling brewery in the middle of Amsterdam and begin brewing his own beer, which he named Heineken in honor of his family. His spouse, Marie Tindal, took the reins of the company upon his death in 1893, and she led the company until 1914 when their son, Henry Pierre Heineken, took over. The family continues, four generations later, to influence the company, with Charlene Carvalho-Heineken serving as the executive director and holding ¼ of the market shares.
The Secrets to the Brand
The secret to the Heineken brand boils down to the quality of its flavor profile, taste, and branding. The Yeast A is unique to Heineken and provides an incredible flavor to the beer, and the company uses a special process to maximize the effect of the ingredient. Interestingly, the yeast was developed by a student of Louis Pasteur and remains unchanged all these years later. The company also uses horizontal tanks and requires 28 days of lagering time to perfect the flavor. Before distribution, a Master Brewer must evaluate each batch.
Heineken grew in popularity because of this quality, earning a Parisian gold medal in 1875 and special notice in 1989 during the universal exposition.
The branding extends to the bottling choices as well. In order to stand out in a world of brown beer bottles, Heineken bottles are green. Additionally, the red star symbolizes brewing prestige, with four points representing the ingredients and the fifth standing for passion and workmanship.
FYI per Heineken
Heineken is a pale lager beer with 5% ABV and a fresh, herbal, grainy flavor. We suggest serving in a pint glass at 40-45° F with your choice of light or casual fare. It’s the perfect beer to pair with the freshly caught fish you’ll find on the menus of many local restaurants.
On Grand Cayman, the place to buy Heineken, whether online or in-person is Jacques Scott Wines & Spirits. Not only are we the exclusive distributor of the brand, but we also carry a plethora of other beers, wines, and spirits, along with all the mixers you might need, to stock your vacation rental’s bar or your beach cooler.
