    What hops does Heineken use?

    I just kegged a lager, force carbed a couple of liters, and I SWEAR it tastes just like Heineken. And I lived in the NL for 3 years while in the Army, so I tend to know my Heineken (Grolsch is better).

    This is liable to be a pretty good batch in a month (my birthday).

    .75oz Magnum @ 60m
    .50oz Saaz @ 15m
    .50oz Saaz @ 5m

    The Magnum is US, the Saaz is Czech.
