Pft, it was just a comment 
besides, I can't seem to get along with men around my age (especially good-looking ones, so I normally end up with the nice albeit perhaps not as good-looking guys), so I go for the older folk
Lots of profs can't either, but they still persist

Heineken Tour?
Yeah, at the Brewery in Amsterdam. They have a very effective strategy there. They take you though the whole place but to get out you have to go through the gift shop after they have given you some free samples.

That's the original, old brewery actually. The one doing the main work nowadays, for the Netherlands and for export, is in Zoeterwoude. Quite nearby my home

Can they run a pipe to your kitchen? I'd like to have that on tap.

Oddly I used to live next to the Grolsch brewery before
Grolsch is higher quality, more flavour.
Heineken is high quantity beer, a marketing story.

I'm not going to touch the "high quality" aspect of Grolsch or Heineken.

Yup. Heineken is more for festivities, large events, folks beer. Grolsch was of a smaller brewery, with a nearby university. Former students 'brought' it to the rest of the country. A bit elite beer. Tastes better. Their bottles have a porcelain cap.
Belgium beer is very nice

Carlsberg is light, Danish beer.
US beer is 2.5%. Dutch regular beer is 5% or even upto 12%.Heineken and Grolsch is 5% here. Belgium beer us heavy too (5-15%).
I beg to differ on the alcohol content.

There is alcohol in it but it's light in taste.

I remember being in Paris for work and going out to restaurants for dinner. Look at the menu, hmm..., 6.50 for a Coke, 6.00 for a Bud, 3.50 for a Heineken. Well, I saved the company money.
When I'm in the mood for something with a little body, I'll go for the Guinness Stout. You drink that stuff with a fork.

Not to mention that 6.50 Coke came in a 200 ml can. In Paris we drank wine by the pitcher, and in Vienna it was beer by the liter. We'd have gone broke if we stuck to "American" beverages.

Bud is import for Paris, so paying taxes/fees. Heineken is Dutch, but from within the same eurozone. Free trade in goods and travelling for people. No importcosts on Heineken.
Paris is expensive though.
