I bought this thing on the forth. It looked cool, and I like Heineken. $19 frickin' dollars. But, what a piece of shit! There's too much pressure, and the damn spout drips like a bad faucet after you tap one, and as you can see, no matter how you try and pour one, you get this massive head. Don't buy one of these. What a waste.

That's what you get for trying to make beer as permanent a fixture as something important, like coffee. :D

Where did you get that? Is that refillable? The main reason I would get it would be for a showpiece on my bar.

Well it was in the frig. I took it out for the pic.
I heard the "eleventh" commandment was, "no man shalt go without coffee." :D

I got it at the Super K right above my place, and no, it's not refillable. You can have it when it's empty, because it's just going in the trash otherwise.

Right. That's *coffee*. Not beer. And, better you give the *woman* coffee, rather than hoarding it for yourself, or your life is likely to be in turmoil

I make it a point NOT to have my women "live" with me. Too much hassle. "We have sex... you go home now"... :cool:

1. Are you supposed to be able to keep it refrigerated for several days or weeks?
2. I've booght the Henie gravity mini-kegs about this size before. Those are not under pressure, and just drain out the bottom. The beer was great, perfest head, but it goes flat after about 2 hours so you only buy one for a party.
3. Never had a problem with massive head. :laugh2:

This is under pressure, and the beer in it is a couple days old, but still fine. It's empty now... :alcoholic: - - :laugh:

I did. It's just got too much pressure. It was doing better right before it got empty.

Well, there's your problem- putting Heineken in a Bud glass. Worlds like that should never collide. :beer:

And by the way, the Heineken commercial where the black guy says, "can I have it like that?" And the black girl answers him, "you got it like that." I think that is quite possibly the stupidest commercial I've ever heard. I may never buy Heineken again.

No shit. that commercial kills me. Makes me thank god for the DVR so I can fast forward through the commericals. I never watch anything live anymore, I just record everything so I don't have to watch the commercials.
Oh yea, and ive never had a Heineken beer. I don't really like beer, if I do drink beer it is a Corona with a lime. Coors light taste's like piss water, Busweiser isn't that good either.
My friend got one, Pale, he had the same complaints as you, but mainly bought it for display.

Heineken definitely has a stronger taste than any of those, in my opinion. I'm no conneseur or anything, but I like it. But, for the record, I think Corona tastes like piss water.

Wierd, guess I never really paid attention to that commercial then. Ive only seen it once or twice. Like I said before, I record everything before I watch it that way I can fast forward through the commercials.
