I don't see (or taste) much difference between Carlsberg or Heineken to be honest, not as a beer snob just they are fairly similar. Unless UAE Carlsberg is something different to regular Carlsberg

Heineken has a slightly stronger and sharper (sour, if you want) beer taste. Carlsberg is a bit more rounded. But if looking for the crisper finish Heineken is the drink you want. That's how I see it.

I prefer Coronas over Heineken, but that probably still tells all and sundry how awful my palate is.

Not drunk enough Carlsberg to really be able to tell you, certainly not recently either. Maybe it's nice.

Corona is alright, I just prefer a pint to a bottle. Some people are the opposite.

Always a bottle scamp. Come on.

Heineken is probably at the bottom of my go to list, with becks a close second. They taste the same to me.

Peroni is by far my favourite. Until the morning. I switched to ciders a while ago but Misty switched back recently.

Peroni hangovers are the worst. Heineken is available everywhere and I appreciate that kind of consistency.

Bottles are for girls and regularly cost the same as a pint despite being much smaller.

Cider is just heartburn for me I'm afraid.

If you ever come to the other side of Maghreb, this is a decent brew: crisp, refreshing dry-ish flavour, relatively strong and doesn't give much of a hangover. Best drunk in dingy holes.
