Beer Review – Hek
Posted by bradinator in Beer, Beer Tasting on February 7, 2010
Name: Hek Original Lager
Origin: Canada
Style: Lager (5%)
Appearance: It pours a pale, clear yellow colour. It produces a medium, fizzy head that dissipates almost instantly.
Taste: Smells of grasses and something metallic. As for taste, or lack thereof, there is not much to comment on. Some mild flavours of grasses, maybe something citrusy and that’s about it. The rest of this beer is watery and flavourless.
Mouth Feel: The lager thin and highly carbonated, but crisp and refreshing. There is basically no aftertaste whatsoever.
Final Thoughts (2.0 out of 5): A bland beer overall, lacking flavour and character. For $10.00 a 12-pack (thanks Dad!) your getting what you paid for. Still its a hell-of-alot better then Budweiser Lime.
