United Breweries, the country’s largest beer manufacturer and part of the Amsterdam-based Heineken group recently announced the launch of Heineken Silver, a smooth and refreshing beer that provides Indian consumers with a premium beverage that is truly designed for everyday social occasions.  

Heineken Silver is brewed by seasoned master brewers using natural ingredients, including Heineken’s famous A-yeast and quality pure malt.

We see modern consumers seeking beverages that are light, easy-to-drink and fit in well with their social occasions and Heineken Silver is perfectly designed for these moments. We are confident that the smooth and refreshing Heineken Silver will herald a new era of premiumisation in the Indian beer market.”  

Rajeev Sathyesh, Asia-Pacific Director, Brand – Heineken, said, “We are excited to launch this new member of the Heineken family, Heineken Silver, in India. This delightfully refreshing, smooth and easy-to-drink lager has received a lot of love in our other markets globally. We are confident that it will also appeal to the new generation of beer drinkers in India. Heineken Silver is brewed as an all-round crowd pleaser and the perfect partner to celebrate authentic moments of joy.” 

Heineken Silver is available in both on- and off-trade retail channels in Bengaluru. Heineken Silver’s 330-ml pint is priced at `120, the 500-ml can at `160 and the 650-ml bottle at `200 across off-trade retail outlets in Bengaluru. The beer comes in a sleek silver can and the iconic green bottle. Heineken Silver will also be launched in other markets very soon.  

Heineken Silver has a smooth and refreshing taste, retaining the signature fruity aroma of Heineken Original with a balanced, though slightly lower bitterness.
