I don't care for Heineken or light beers in general, but I'm curious what this stuff is like. Anyone try it?

Any beer from green or clear bottles should be avoided. Doubly so if the word Light is printed on said bottles.

Yeah, either one. The reason Heineken, Rolling Rock, Corona, .... all have that weird aftertaste is because they're skunked. Light makes the beer go bad faster. That's why Heineken tastes better out of the keg cans.

More accurately: Brown glass blocks UV rays better. UV rays break down the hops bittering oils and make the beer taste skunky.
