It totally does.  I noticed it one night and mentioned it, but everyone said they couldn't smell it.  It smelled like straight weed to me.

Yes it absolutely does.  I think I can count on one hand the amount of times I have gotten weed that smelled like it though.

Fuck man I cant stand Heineken, that is some shitty gross tasting fucking beer ( if you can even call it that) I cant even fathom how anyone could drink that stuff.


"Heineken.... Fuck that shit" , I cant remember where that quote is from but I remember saying drunk while partying one night years ago

That is so true!

However I've noticed it with only the genuine Heineken which is made in Amsterdam. The non-genuine, made under license Heineken's don't seem to have the same smell when you open them.

How funny, I thought it was only me that thought about Skunk when I opened a Heineken......I guess it's one of those thoughts that you think but never really comment about.

Happy to hear that I'm not the only one!

Adding my pet similar thing: Some kinds of good/fresh tomatoes, when you get them still with the "branch" attached, you tear the tomato from the branch and right then smell the tomato-branch, they smell like weed too, like fresh, uncured weed to me...  :o

Yup, totally.......and there's good reasons for it.

So weed and beer hops are from the same plant family (or very closely related). Green bottled beer (Heineken, Hollandia, Grolsch, Stella etc) are at risk from UV rays which cause chemical changes in the beer and hence the flavour. It becomes "light-struck".

Ive noticed this with a lot of beer including stella and peroni but only when in bottles! I was with someone who was adamant that a young child sat near us at a pub had weed on them and it turned out to be the persons own peroni!! lol

The quote in question, is from the movie: Blue Velvet.  The whole quote is: "Heineken... Fuck that shit!   Pabst Blue Ribbon!"  Spoken by Dennis Hopper's character "Frank".

Sick muthafucker in that flick.

Yeah it's the hops. I don't like Heineken and have had some in the fridge for months now.

+1, true dat :)

+1, they really do smell like cannabis sometimes! :D
But that smell is more similar to that of cannabis plants in an early flowering stage rather than uncured weed IMO :)


A joke for all the Heineken haters:
What's the difference between a woman and a Heineken?
The woman stops tasting like piss after ten seconds ;D


What are your favorite beers, community? Mine is Pilsner Urquell :)

I'm drinking a Heineken as I read this thread! Skunky, no. But I have on occasion had a skunky Heineken, beer sometimes does go bad.  BTW, they also brew Heienken under license down in Jamaica at the same brewery that they brew Red Stripe, it tastes far different than the Heineken brewed in Amsterdam. But, beer choices are limited when in Jamaica. Thank God the ganja is plentiful there!

I've always thought that bottled Stella and Kronenbourg smells kinda like weed when you first open them.

The top three most searched results in google that start with Heineken smells are,
Heineken smells like weed
Heineken smells like skunk
Heineken smells skunky

;D

Well, hops are in the cannabaceae family.  The same with cannabis.  People have tried to graft them but I don't know if they were ever successful.
